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.

Needs sand

Course was in decent shape, greens were a little bumpy as expected, but the bunkers lacked sand and were filled with hard compacted dirt

Greens are still bumpy

I knew the greens had been punched a couple of weeks ago, but they are still in pretty rough shape. Some of the fairways are immaculate and others are a little rough. Overall a good value for $50-$60.

Great summer value

Summer in AZ is always tough with course conditions. They had punched recently so a little bumpy on the greens. Fairways were great, bunkers were very thin.

Overall great time, needs about week before greens are back to running well!

Couse is in Great Shape

A lot of courses are in really bad shape this summer. This place was in great shape. Greens were punched a bit ago and still showed a little sign, but were puttable and not that bad at all. I would go back in a heartbeat.

Bad bunkers

The coarse was ok but the money they charge during prime season and the bunkers are half dirt and hard as a rock. If open your club face and try to hit it out your club just bounces and you wind up hitting it over the green so you have to play a square face and chunk and run the shot or rake the spot under your ball the best you can to hit a normal shot but it’s so hard that you can’t even do that hardly. Pretty sad.

Staff are nice and friendly- food and drink are also reasonably priced! Good deals for golfers during week pricing, along with multiple areas to advance and grow your game. Golf carts also allow you to automatically connect your phone to the speakers, so no extra luggage from home needed. Will be back!

Legacy is worth the trip

Pro Shop staff was very friendly, driving range and practice greens were excellent and the starter was a good dude. Pace of play was what you expect on a summer Sunday morning but the Marshall was around several times making sure everyone was keeping pace. The beverage cart came around a couple of times, wish it could’ve been more often but that’s out of her control. Overall the course was in good shape for the end of June. Look forward to playing the course in peak season.

Awesome course, terrible pace of play

First time playing here, played on a late Sunday afternoon, temps North of 110.. course was awesome and in great shape, aside from the bunkers being rock hard. Enjoyed the round but the pace of play was awful. couple holes backed up 2-3 groups, waited 10+ minutes. Would love to play here again but not worth the waiting. made for a miserable afternoon.
