Legacy Golf Club sits on 28 acres of Dwight B. Heard's turn-of-the-20th-century ranch, home to 1902 silos that decorate the 18th fairway - once the tallest manmade things in Maricopa County. More history is on the first tee, in the Sierra Vista House which counts among its early-1900s visitors Theodore Roosevelt and Pancho Villa.

Gary Panks designed the golf course at the Legacy Golf Club, giving it lush fairways, strategic hazards and manicured greens to test all golfers. Native flora grows from the landscape, and the club's elevation offers a vista of Camelback Mountain, Squaw Peak and the skyline of Phoenix.

Great Course, Slow Play

Everything about the course was great. Practice area is really nice. Staff was super friendly. Pace of play was awful. It should not take almost 5-1/2 hours for 4 people to play 18 holes on a Thursday afternoon. Shout out to the 4-some in front of us (2 men, 2 women) who were both terrible at golf and wicked drunk. Maybe being drunk made them bad golfers, but I doubt it.

Highly Recommend

Came to Scottsdale for a long weekend, knowing that golf prices would be high due to it being prime season and baseball spring training season. Checked out the reviews of many course in the area and chose Legacy because of the consistent good reviews about course conditions. Staff were very friendly and the course in great shape. Challenging but fair layout that our grouo of 6 people - from 7hcp to 28hcp - all enjoyed.

Many bunkers short on sand

Decent course but needs sand in many bunkers , bottomed out many times. Limited water on course . Had to go enter clubhouse to use bathroom. Very firm fast greens. Helpful staff. Bit pricey.

Great course

I played this course several years ago. Their practice facilities are great and the pace was really good. The course is in really good condition. It's a bit pricey, but worth it!

Too slow to play

We paid a good amount of money to enjoy a couples vacation foursome at this better than average course. The waiting was excruciating. So slow we were out of rhythm. They book way too many people during the weekends for the price that you’re supposed to pay, I would not recommend doing this course on the weekends because of that..

Great course and condition

Played Legacy for the first time with a local resident and aside from it being a 4:45 round, thoroughly enjoyed it! Greens were in great shape, layout of course not overly difficult but bunkers challenging! Highly recommend and will play again!

Fairways. tees and greens were in amazing condition. Pace of Play was super slow. No ranger out on the course to speed things up. A little pricey but still a great course.

Spring training round

First day of spring training and there was a corporate event ahead of us for the first 8 holes but play moved along. Fairways and greens in great shape. Bunkers could use some more sand. Was priced better than anything else in the area and conditions were equal to anywhere.

Dirt track far too expensive for horrid pace of play

Took 2:45 to play 9, got to 11 and 3 groups on the tee waiting. Left because it took so long. No ranger to move them along and the conditions of the course are not that great anyway. Don’t waste your money, far too much for very very little.

First time playing Legacy and thoroughly enjoyed the round! The course was in excellent condition and the pace of play was what to expect with a ton of winter travelers in the area. The only down side, and this has nothing to do with the course, was impatient players behind our group who kept hitting shots on top of our group. Not only was this annoying but it can be dangerous. Other than that, I would definitely play again
