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.

Worth the drive(npi)

Course was 3 weeks removed overseed so greens were not quite up to speed but quick enough. Definitely a #target/desert golf course but reasonably sized lqnding areas. Traps in good shape (thankfully) got paired with regular which helped as im sure i would have gotten burned otherwise. Id rate this with Troon north or Wildfire. Bar and grill very basic and not up to par with the course. Wish i could afford to play it more

A nice track in great shape

Played 2 weeks after the winter over seed. Course was in great shape but the greens were still a little slow and bumpy. That will get better over the next few weeks. Quite a drive from old town Scottsdale but worth the trip if you want a challenging course in good condition. Helps to play it a few time to realize where to hit the ball but the same is true for many courses.

Better last time

Greens very slow and staff treated us like necessary revenue versus welcom paying customers. Last trip to this track 2.5 years ago much better. Until they correct both pieces would recommend you look elsewhere.

Desert delight

Beautiful course with a variety of tee boxes to challenge all levels of players. The re-seeding caused slightly furry greens and cart path only, but pace was still swift at 3.5 hrs. for a Sunday 18!

scalped with no heads up, overseeding

GolfNow needs to start notifying golfers of the conditions of the course. I pulled up to the course after an hour drive and it was brown and scalped. Then you had these huge tractors driving throughout the round blowing grass cuttings everywhere. The course looks to be a fun track but because of the conditions it was a distraction. Even when speaking to the pro-shop no concerns what so ever and still had the never to ask for full price in these conditions.

Great Shape

Greens were slightly bumpy from the punching but were almost perfect. Greens rolled about a 10. Can get them much faster with the undulating greens.

I would rank it about 8.5 for condition

Love this place

The course is almost up to the Carefree Hwy off Pima, and never seems to be too crowded. Fairways and greens are generous, and pretty plush for the season. Greens roll pretty quick and smooth, and the greens hold approach shots well. Course staff is friendly and helpful, one of my favorites when you can get a discounted price. Highly recommended!

A fantastic course maintained every well !

I've been fortunate to have played at Legend Trail close to a couple dozen times. Usually in Summer because of OUTSTANDING Golf Now deals & this facility never disappoints.

First Trevor met up W/Me to grab My bag then asked questions to see how He was able to help. Effective as I mentioned that Mark in the Pro shop knew I was running way behind & a single.

Those who've been there know the practice area is right there so once loosened up you're off to play, it is a nice set up for sure. On course it is demanding as gettin' in play off the tee in a must. Plays long if not and the green complexes undulation need exacting attention to avoid 3putting. Bein' on the correct portion of those greens HELPS !

This is a favorite on mine & as a Valley native am GLAD I've been able to play there plenty, THANKS !
