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.

Lots a fun

Course in great shape. Quite a few high bunkers to avoid as not much sand in them. Pace was good, tee’d off at 1:00 and finished in 4 hrs 15 min. Golf now Hit Deal so price was good.

Very nice course, challenging length

used up my golfnow points to book Legacy so paid very little to play. The course is in great condition, practice and warm up facilities are outstanding. Pace of play on the back nine got a bit congested especially on the par 3 17th were there were four groups at one point playing or waiting on the tee box. Sill under 4 1/2 hours because the front nine went really smooth, Heading back to Canada next week so no time for a return visit, perhaps next trip to the valley.

Excellent course

Loved my first time at The Legacy.

The only drawback was a slow pace of play and perhaps too much sand and traps very difficult to escape from.

Greens and Fairways excellent with

A very good layout. Course plays very long with many uphill shots to greens, so move up a tee.

Will be back

Fun Day

Played the course from the whites and still had trouble reaching the greens in two. Lots of bunkers that had high banks to hit over, would’ve liked a little more sand in them. Greens were great. Love playing this course!

Vacation Trip

We flew to Phx for the WM tourney and decided to play and stay at he Legacy Resort.

The course and the staff were absolutely fabulous. However, I do think it was a bit overpriced. The course was in great shape from tee to green. Would play there again if it weren’t so expensive.
