Course condition - Dr Jeckyl and Mr Hyde

This is a story of two halves.

The front nine was in the following condition:

Tees and Fairways - in need of serious help.

Sand traps: Almost barren.

Greens - very bumpy with many different grasses and it was link putting on broccoli.

BACK NINE was in impeccable condition. Greens tremendous, sand in traps, fairways in great condition and tee positions were rotated properly.

All employees were extremely courteous and helpful.

Snack bar food great.

I will not play it again until the front nine is attended to.

u314161246941, thank you for your feedback. All of our fairways are currently dormant, however the back 9 was recently painted later than the front as we dealt with high winds while we were spraying so their apperanace visually may be darker.

As for the greens, depending on time of play, towards the afternoon the poa annuna becomes more bumpy. Once the bermuda awakens from its dormacy here in a couple of weeks we will be able to spray those spots out. The greens are smoother and roll more true after they are mowed at sunrise each day until about 11am.

Additional cart traffic wear and tear from single mandated carts for almost a full year has started to show our wear patterns more especially in the winter when the bermuda is not growing. Once the bermuda is thriving, any bare spots will be soded in the summer months.

Markhellis, Thank you for the comment, we were one of 10 golf courses in the area that had to make the decision not to overseed in 2020 due to the financial impacts of Covid. We hope you will return once our bermuda wakes up from it's dormacy in the next few weeks.

Overpriced

Have played this course many times over the last several years. $72 is about the going rate all over town. However, this course has not been hit with a sprinkler in a long time. The rough is like hitting out of hay straw. Greens are in bad shape and bunkers as well. This is a $30 course.

Not worth it.

They should be ashamed to be charging $60 (local rate) to be playing this course. It was in such horrible shape. There are better maintained courses for better local rates. They need to either commit to the course maintenance or drastically lower those rates.

u260482717, Thank you for your feedback. The Legacy charging $60 is well under market value for the area. Just like many operators such as Spanish Trail, South Shore Country Club, Bali Hai, Wildhorse, The Wynn, Wolf Creek and Palm Valley we all had to make the difficult decisions not to overseed in 2020 due to the financial impacts of Covid-19. You may think that $60 is too much, however when you add in all of our other rates throught the day our average rate is $35 per person and most days does not cover our operating costs. Yes, the golf course is busy, however less than 1% of non-resident golfers, limited weddings and catering and single carts have reduced our revenues by more than 40%. Each operation in Southern Nevada is just trying to survive. By not overseeding in 2020 we could ensure that our employees remained employed. That's the harsh reality many operators face. This is why we countinue to remove non-playable turf areas in an effort to reduce our water impact and expenses. If you need anything in the future feel free to reach me anytime at mike@thelegacygc.com

Poor Conditions

The Legacy was known as one of the finest courses in Clark County. I have played this course many times but today let me know why I haven’t played there in a long time. It is in horrible condition. The bunkers are hard, the fairways are dry and dusty, and the greens are in poor condition. This for the local price of $60! No thanks.

I’ll take my business to Chimera or Rhodes Ranch, where I know the conditions will be excellent.

u706024208, Thank you for your feedback. We were only of several operators who had to make the tough decsion not ot overseed in 2020 due to the financial impact of Covid-19. By electing not to overseed we could ensure that our employees remained employeed for 2021 and beyond. Our price of $60 is below market value for locals in the Henderson market, had we overseeded our rates would have been in line with Chimera and Revere at $75+, the reason for the fairways being dry and dusty is because they are currently dormant and will wake up in the next couple of weeks with warmer weather. If you have any additional feedback you can reach me at mike@thelegacygc.com

Dead Course - No Grass!!

Course layout was fine, fairways were generous, the greens well bunkered and elevated. That's the best part. We played in late Feb and there was no green. Just slightly green painted fairways and greens. The course was completely dormant. Most normal courses in this area will oversee greens, at least and most do fairways as well. A lot of the fairways had no grass in some areas, not even the dormant grass. The greens were surfaces were were so rough the ball would not roll. All in all the course is not worth the money. The only green grass is around the club house. GO figure!

Golfnbobroy, thank you for the feedback, we were one of several operators who made the decision not to overseed in 2020. Our governor's tight restrictions and closure of golf courses for three weeks in April 2020 played a significant role in that decision. The course is not dead, just dormant and will awake in the spring when the bermuda wakes up.

Surprisingly Bad Shape

I have played this course since 1999. I can’t believe every fairway is dead, greens are rock hard and tee boxes have been ripped up? At this time of year, the course was always pristine and overseeded. I will research why the management decided to for-go the cost (COVID?)

u000003257955, thank you for the feedback. We were one of several operators who had to make the tough decision not to overseed in 2020 due to the financial impact of covid-19. Our governor closed all the courses in Nevada for 3 weeks in April 2020. The fairways are not dead, they are currently dormant and will wake up in the spring. As for the tee boxes, due to the rising cost of water we have elected to remove turf in no playable areas and reduce our water footprint. Last year we used 258 millions gallons of water.

Sad story

We’ve played this course before when it was owned by a previous management company. It used to be one of the top courses in the city. They’ve neglected it to the point that it’s a shell of its former self. Dead fairways, bad greens, trash all around the course. Landscaping has fallen by the wayside. Just very poor shape. Management company must be doing this on purpose. Very, very poor condition. Don’t waste your money and time. It’s a shame .

Cosmolv2010, Thank you for the review. The previous managment group (OB Sports) did not own the course. It was owned by an insurance company who had several other holdings. Due to the financial impact of Covid-19 and forced closure of the golf course by our governor for 3 weeks in April and continued restrictions such as single carts, blocked tee times, 10 minutes intervals we've seen a reduction in revenues by 40-60% and as a result elected decided not to overseed in 2020. We were one of several operators who had to make unprecendented decisions not to overseed such as The Wynn, Spanish Trail, Wildhorse, Bali Hai, Palm Valley, Reflection Bay, South Shore & Wolf Creek in 2020. The most important factor was ensuring the club could remain open in 2021 and beyond and for our employees to remain employeed. The Legacy also didn't overseed in 2008 during the econmic crash. As for the fairways being dead, they are not, the bermuda is currently dormant and will wake up once the termpertures rise about 80 on a regular basis. As for the trash, we have sustained 20+ MPH winds everyday since Saturday. On Saturday 2/13 we had gusts of 40 mph which resulted in several down trees and alot of trash. It takes us several days to pick up all of those debris with a course maintenance crew of 14 staff members. If you have any future concerns you can reach me anytime at mike@thelegacygc.com

Worst course in Las Vegas

I played here on Super Bowl Sunday, and it was in terrible condition. I understand dormant grass, but when you combine dormant grass in the fairways with grainy, almost sandlike, soil... it equals a barren wasteland. The bunkers were the best thing to hit from. Even the greens had patchy and dried out grass marks. Would not recommend this course to anyone. I wouldn’t pay $20 to play here.

FitRedone, we elected not to overseed the golf course in 2020 like several other clubs in the area that faced uncertain futures due to the covid-19 shutdowns by our governor. We were one of several Operators that had to make difficult decsions that would allow for us to be successful and remain open for 2021 and beyond. Please give us another chance once our bermuda grass comes back into season. You can reach me anytime at mike@thelegacygc.com

Course is dry

I’ve played Legacy before and it has always been in pretty good shape. This time the course was bone dry. Lots of bare lies and dead Bermuda. The greens were a little sketchy. There was also a fivesome on the course with three twosomes behind them. Never once saw a Marshall. As the course stands now, I would not play it again. There are many golf courses in Vegas that are in great condition during the winter.

u944725070, we elected not to overseed in 2020 sue to the financial impact of covid19. Several course operators including ourselves had to make tough decisions in order to remain open. We hope that you give The Legacy another opportunity in the spring. You can reach me anytime at mike@thelegacygc.com
