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.

Best in the Valley

The Legacy is in the best shape than most courses I’ve played this summer (Las Sendas, Ocotillo, Lone Tree, Arizona Grand, Foothills, Dobson Ranch, to name a few—not bragging, just for comps). The only course in as good of shape is Camelback (Padre). Greens were aerated a few weeks back, but all good now. Tee boxes were great. Plenty of water out there. Practice areas were immaculate.

I love this course layout. Challenging, but I get a sense of accomplishment when playing smart shots.

1 bad experience - Love the course though

Love this course but our cart died on 14 with about 50 minutes left of daylight. Called the Club House & spoke with 3 separate people and it took them 35 minutes to get out there with another cart. Basically ended our round.

Harsh Rounds

Pace of play here has been difficult and senseless over the past few rounds I've played. They marshall you up to the first tee and it's usually bottlenecked right away. You wait on over 90% of shots tee to green. NEVER do they marshall slow groups on the course. So it's hurry and get started and then you're on your own. Course is nice except for the sand. They're always horrendous.

This is THE Legacy?

Average course overall…played it before and I remember it being a very well kept course. Today, not so much. Had lots of weeds in fairways, burned out areas throughout course…grass growing in bunkers, sand very compact…the list could go on and on.

Very disappointed in course…would not recommend playing here.

Great Summer Course

Fairways and greens in great shape for summer in the desert. Threesome ahead of us with no understanding of golf etiquette held up play for final 13 holes meaning some groups never finished before dark. Will return,

Surprised

Granted it's July but having played this course in years past, I was disappointed in the condition. Traps were as hard as rock, far too many bald spots in the fairways. Greens were not bad. Pretty good shape.

Course layout was pretty good. Fairways had lots of dead (brown) areas. Might be due to the heat. Had to move the ball quite a bit to find grass to hit from. Greens were slow and had been punched not long along. Was looking forward to playing the course but left quite disappointed due to the conditions. All the staff were friendly and helpful.
