When the architect Rees Jones created the golf course at the Legend Trail Golf Club, he created a golf course that brings out the Old West-style air of Scottsdale and a fun and testing golf course with greens made of bent grass. It's a premium golf course smack dab in the Sonora Desert.

The golf course at the Legend Trail Golf Club features broad fairways, diminutive bunkering and tees placed on islands, and has been called one of the Top 100 golf courses by Golf Magazine. The magazine also gives Legend Trail 4.5 stars out of five among its

Best Places to Play, and has one of the Top 100 Woman-Friendly Fairways, according to Golf For Women magazine. Panoramas include local sites like Pinnacle Peak, and a round at Legend Trail Golf Club gives all levels of golfer several different shot-making options.

Golf a late-afternoon round on Friday or Saturday, and head back to the Trail's End Grill from 4 to 6 p.m. for specials on drinks and appetizers.

Greens were great.

Tees - Need help. Lumpy & Uneven.

Fairways - Fair. Overseeding wasn't consistent.

Greens - A little slow but rolled true. The best part of the course.

Pace of Play was 4:10, which is excellent for this course.

Fun round

The course has a challenging layout. The fairways were in really good shape and the greens though a little firm rolled really good. The bag boys and starter were really helpful and very friendly. Great practice facility.

Great conditions, great pace and fun layout.

Played it today and the course conditions were terrific, pace was great and price at this time of year, good. Can't go wrong playing golf here. It is surrounded by houses but views are great. Marshal told us we "need to pick up the pace and catch the group in front" on the fifth hole. We did it 2:11. We then waited 9 of the next 13 holes. We then took our clubs to the car in our carts and were told that "carts are not allowed in the parking lot" as he jumped in one and took off. Treated poorly and probably won't be back. Shank by that staff.

Fun Round

Course played well, some of the holes were very targeted with longer carry to get to the fairway. Greens were pretty fast, but true. Overall, great experience!

Very nice desert course

Very nice desert course. The desert can certainly get you, but driving areas are predominately generous. I am from Michigan, so when I play in AZ, I want to play a desert course and this one is one of my favorites.

Target golf, pick tees suited to your ability.

Many more attractive and better conditioned courses in the desert around Scottsdale. No real food available at the 9th hole cafe or on the carts. Target golf. If you tend to stray, don’t choose this course.

Great day of golf

Had a great day at Legend Trail what a beautiful layout.

Only surprise was their use of propane powered golf carts instead of electric. Very noisy and a bit smelly. Maybe next time they need to replace their golf carts they should think of upgrading to electric powered.

Golfers need to calm down

The course is in good shape. I noticed several fairways that had not been mowed in awhile as they were longer than normal. Don't know if this is the norm here or not.

The range was mats only. Not a fan of the mats. No rubber tees for driver or woods.

Practice greens did not putt like course greens. The layout is interesting with some narrow landing areas.

To balance out the players the starter moved some of the tee times. I have no problem with this as it should make for a smoother round. The pace was slow. We waited on every hole and most every second shot. We saw the ranger like 3 -4 times on the front. Originally, I thought he was to there to keep pace. He never said anything to us, but watched us closely. ???? I found out on the back 9 that the group behind us called to complain. I guess they thought they were special. Guys, if you can see there is a group ahead of us then we CAN'T go any faster. Some people need to calm down and use their brain. I will credit the ranger in that he never said anything to us because it was OBVIOUS that we were not the problem. I don't like slow play any more than the next guy, but I absolutely HATE to be given grief about the pace that we had nothing to do with.

Will play it again...

A decent track for the money on the north side. Fairways good, bunkers fine, greens a bit off from what they've been before but fine. Pace was great, staff always good.
