Winter play has damaged course

I know we have just finished the winter season. But I was surprised at the condition of the course. Especially the first 4 holes. There was little or no attempt to manicure the course. And I know the difference between trying to keep the course natural and just not doing your job. The course is in dire need of water too.
Still a nice track. Just hope they step up the maintenance.

Needs some TLC

Has been a few years since I've played this course which has a nice layout. Was disappointed in overall course conditions. Appeared like they haven't watered course in months as everything looked parched and dry. Tee boxes have little turf- mostly dirt. Fairways are tight and brownish. Greens are fast and roll okay but appear brown and a fair number have diseased spots. Weeds are all over the place. The driving range was like a dirt lot- not much grass. There was no starter to control groups going out- they said just go to the tee whenever you felt like it.
Later I asked pro shop if they had watered or had they had rain and the reply was that they just had someone new purchase the course and they would begin putting money into course. In the meantime, I will be frequenting other courses. The greens fee they charge is too much in it's present shape.

Poor conditions

For a $100 greens fee it was not worth the money. Poor fairway and green conditions, a lot of bare spots. It's a nice layout and pace of play was good. I learned after the round that new management was set to take over the course on Wednesday April 8th. In the meantime, skip this one!!!!

Don't go

Poor practice facility, but balls were free. Poor tee boxes, but had been slit seeded. Nice layout, challenging holes, greens roll true, but many thin spots. Rough thin at best with many weeds. Snack shop closed all day, and clubhouse was not serving food, not even hotdogs, at 2:20 when turn was made. Asking $104 for this course in morning rate should be embarrassing. Will not be back.

Good Course Needs Some Yardage Marks

Good course. Make sure you find a deal on the price. Course needs some additional yardage markers and some guidance on shot placement.

Great Experience

Very interesting and overall challenging layout. The first 5 holes are a real test, especially for first timers. The Pro Shop told us about holes 1-5 and they were right. Lots of water throughout but a GPS was quite helpful. A few greens and tee boxs were a little spotty but did not affect overall experience. It was a quiet afternoon when we played but there was a Ranger on duty who proactively helped us (playing as a twosome) get by a foursome on the 8th hole..After that cruised tothe Clubhouse in under 4 hours. We played a combination of Gold and Silver Tees as Gold was too long @ 6558 yds with Silver too short @ 5929 yds. Sounds like time for a hybrid set of tees. We played on a Hot Deal which made the price more palatable to the posted rates around $75 in season. Nice Palmer layout and would definitely go back at the right price.

Course was in relatively good condition for the time of year. Staff friendly, but not the most organized. Our tee time got delayed, but once we got going everything moved along. Paid $55.00 per person. Would not pay full price to play here.

Great layout and facility so-so shape

I book almost all rounds through Golf Now. I've been waiting for a decent price here and paid $47.
The facility is great and the practice area was very good. The course design is first-rate. Unfortunately the whole course was in substandard condition. The greens and tees were chewed up and many of the fairways were spotty. I played here two years ago and the condition was fabulous. I know courses go through tough stretches but the deterioration here was very noticeable. Wouldn't play here again unless conditions improve.

Hi uVVNK8270VV,

I was disappointed to read your review as guest satisfaction is our priority at the Legacy and by all accounts course conditions have been improving steadily and our greens are definitely in the best condition in years. My email is GM@legacygolfclub.com

Please reach out to me if we can do anything to encourage another round at the club.

Very nice course with good facilities

This was never my favourite course previously; mostly, I believe, because I was playing from the wrong tees. The first time I played the short tees and found I was driving into trouble on many holes. The next couple of times I played, I found the course too challenging because I was using back tees. Finally I found the optimum tees, based on the starter's recommendation, and I enjoyed my game immensely. Greens very true and quite fast.

A tough course even for Arnie.

Better bring your game and lots of golf balls. It's a precision course and may even be a bit unfair. The first five water holes can be exasperating especially if its your first outing like ours. "Unfair" in the sense that most fairways are sloping. so that a straight shot down the middle can find the water or bunker unless you can either draw or fade the ball. Only try this course if you are a serious Arnie fan or a masicust. Suggest not for the faint of heart, beginners, or vacationers like us.

Excellent value

The course was challenging but fair, the front 9 are treacherous but it eases up on the back 9...The gentleman who runs the facility was knowledgeable and gave us all a few good tips...I live local and have found a new favorite course. Highly recommended course.

Deteriorating Conditions

I've played this course each year for the past 4-5 years. The course is deteriorating. Greens are ok but fairways have patches of dead areas and rough is very bad/ dead areas. Was scheduled to play again this week but cancelled
