Honoring the wishes of Lela and Charles Hilton, Legacy Golf Club is named in honor of their beloved son "Chip." He started playing daily at age 9 with a genuine love and excitement for the sport. He was on the Bay High School golf team, apprenticing with golf pro-Kenny Lind and made golf his vocation. As a professional golf instructor, he taught his students invaluable life lessons, emphasizing that golf is not a game of perfection but a comeback. He also believed golf was more than just a game; it was full of essential life skills such as patience, perseverance, determination, and overcoming obstacles and setbacks.

The golf club, established in 1965, is a championship course with challenging greens designed to test golfers with even the sharpest short-game skills. The fairways are generously sized with lakes and white sand bunkers that fiercely guard the elevated greens. Players should be prepared to use every club in their bag. The golf course is challenging but fair and enjoyable, making it a good test of skill without inciting frustration. Its playability, enhanced with three sets of tees, has made it one of Florida's most popular tracks. Legacy Golf Club also boasts extensive practice facilities, including a lighted driving range, chipping green, expansive putting green, Executive Course, and Bar and Grille.

Last minute gem.

Came into town and on the spur of the moment decided to play some golf. Checked out different courses. This had the best price. Had a fantastic time. Good layout - surprisingly scenic. Very helpful and friendly staff. We would recommend to anybody!!

Amazingly, we owned the course. Closest group was eight holes behind us. Never saw anybody in front of us. We were very lucky that day.

Looking Good

I will say over the years I have played this course a dozen plus times. Because of the cost, I have not played there in about three years. I paid $90 on GolfNow and I must say the course was excellent. The greens rolled really well and the fairways for the most part were in great condition. I can’t afford to play there on a regular basis, but really did enjoy my round. I travel between Atlanta and PCB on a regular basis. Love the course just wish it was a little more affordable.

Closed with no explanation

We booked our tee time online through GN. Arrived twenty minutes before and the place was closed. No sign on the door, no explanation. It’s a great course, hopefully there’s a logical reason why they didn’t open on a Saturday. Returned 5 hours later, still closed, and still no sign.

Course was decent. Fairways were nice, greens need some work.

Very over priced for 18-holes.

Challenging course from any tees

Legacy has been redone in the past several years and is now one of the best courses you can play in the Panama City Beach area. After a couple of straightforward opening holes, the course has some trick ones that appear short until you have to work your way around well-placed trees and water hazards. The pace of play in the morning, even on a busy holiday weekend, was excellent. We finished in under four hours on a crowded day!

Overall a nice course in good shape. Unfortunately, the course was very wet and restricted to cart path only. On a day this hot it made overall playing conditions difficult.

Very nice

Course was in great shape. Fairways and greens both both really well maintained. Crowded and slow pace of play, but that’s to be expected in a vacation destination like PCB. I used the extra time to find lots of balls 🙂
