About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
Length 6898 yards
Slope 130
Rating 73.0

There are 27 holes of championship golf available at the Legends of Massillon. This popular club consistently ranks as one of the top public golf courses in the state. The holes are divided into three nines called the East, North, and South. The Legends originally opened as an 18-hole golf course and when another nine was added, the three nines were divided into six holes from the original course and three new holes each. The nines can be played in three different 18-hole combinations. You'll be tested with strategically placed bunkers and water hazards no matter which golf course you choose. Water comes into play on 22 out of the 27 and there are more than 80 bunkers. The East/South combination has large, inviting greens and four sets of tees.

Pretty great

Course was in good shape even after all the rain we've had. Greens rolling very well and the bunkers actually looked dragged and manicured. I will definitely be back soon.

Slow Play!!

I'm a bogey golfer and the guy I played with was a double bogey golfer and we still were waiting forever. Almost 3 hrs to play 9 holes. 1 twosome in front and 2 foursomes in front of them. But 2 people from each group were walking and the other 2 were riding which slowed play down big time. They should of let the 2 twosome groups behind them play through in my eyes. The course layout was great. I want to play the north and south so I'll be back.

Not Up To Usual Standards

Was disappointed to see the greens in such disrepair. Of course we've had lots of rain and little sunshine so far this spring so that probably affects this situation.

They have given up maintaining the course

We have played here twice before and each time we were impressed with the course conditions. This time we were astounded to see the greens literally pockmarked with old unrepaired ball marks -- possibly from last year. The bunkers were always poor here but the layout compensated for it. However, the greens are simply unacceptable. We are not coming back here.

Course was in poor shape. Greens were chewed up. Pace of play was terrible. 4 some held up by a twosome. No rangers. These clowns were wearing sleeveless t shirts and ripped up cargo pants.

Will not be back.

Great Course - Great Value

The course was in very good condition for April in spite of recent rains. Cart path only was not required. Played quickly with no waiting on any hole. And, at $16 it was a steal.

Great course

If I have to honest I love everything about this course except the sand traps. Not all of them but a lot of the sand traps need attention. Other than that this course is one of the best courses in north east Ohio. The starters are friendly and flexible with getting your group going, and the people in the pro shop are always happy to see you. The course is always green, groomed,and playable with a tee box for everyone’s ability. You will enjoy your day at the Legends.

Challenging enough for the every day golfer

This early in the year the course was in very good condition...they made sure the pace of play was flowing by keeping rangers on the course. Also the staff is very friendly and very accommodating to your needs.

Nice layout. Greens not good.

Just o.k. course. Not top 5 public course in Ohio. 4 hour drive to play, just not worth it.
