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.

Go to course

…check your distance on their in cart gps to make club selection easier based on your knowledge of your clubs distance control

… found it interesting, folks in other cart, couldn’t figure out why they were unable to go forward when nearing the green or wet areas…the GPS acts as course Ambassador/Ranger to keep you out of places where fairway, cart path only protocols etc in place…and the software also keeps you informed about your pace of play

Fellow golfer shared his former round wherein his partner kept the cart girl too busy…have to wonder if cart staff ever cuts someone off as they rise into holes 12-18…golfer wondered how his partner ever made it home

Fairways, fringe and greens in very good shape for this time year(January)…

Play the course… but be extremely gentle with your putter as you might find yourself rolling off the greens

A challenging but fair and open course.

I enjoyed a round of golf with some fellow snowbirds I met on the 1st tee box. It was a cool day with a bit of wind. The course is in winter condition (bare fairways, but decent (fast!) greens). The course is quite open with rough that doesn't pose any issues. Water comes into play on several holes and most holes have greenside bunkers with decent sand. The greens are difficult to read and many have undulations and tiers that add to the challenge. I enjoyed the round and will play this course again.

Just right

Not much water

Trees

Lightning fast greens

Hitting straight is still the most common way to be successful and speed of putt no more than 1/2 way to cup so it doesn’t go 6 feet past on a missed cup

Enjoy the

Legacy was fun

Legacy golf course was fun to play. It had plenty of tee options.

We were not able to use woods on the driving range, only irons, because of its close proximity to the road.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. They couldn't have been nicer!

And Roscoe, the black lab was also a sweetheart!

Who made the greenskeeper mad? Seriously.

I played here on vacation while staying near Panama City. I've never seen such atrocious pin placement. You can make golf challenging without ruining people's rounds. My group almost three and four putted half the holes. So many pins were on a slope or at an angle. I'll never play here again just because of this.

Must Play for all levels.

Excellent, fun layout. You must be on the proper side of the pin or pay the price with fast greens! Nice selection of tee boxes for all levels of play. Large Wide Fairways.

Enjoyable round

My son-in-law and I played a fun Thanksgiving weekend round in 2.5 hours on a 70-degree day with a moderate breeze. The course was in very good shape and the greens were rolling fast. On a previous round the course was soggy and played long but these were ideal conditions. The course has an interest layout with several holes that played longer than they looked. The new carts and GPS were excellent and the staff quite friendly and helpful.

Unique circumstances, but great day

It's Thanksgiving morning, so obviously this isnt a typical day. Regardless. Played 18 in 2.5 hrs. Golf now tee time included about 20 range balls. So that was nice.

Conditions were fantastic. Layout is a little blah, but there's enough dog legs to keep it fun. Not too mention the sneaky water that can randomly bite you.

A little pricey, but honestly, the conditions were pure. Not far off value wise. Everything was in tip top shape. Would recommend, just try to grab a hot deal!

A Good Value For A Quick Round

This is a typical resort course and a descent track if you want a quick and affordable round. Not an RTJ and not a low end Muni either. Very flat and scoreable with tall sparse pines lining the fairways. A lot of tees (in good shape) so it can play pretty long or short if you want. Greens were in excellent shape. The layout is basic. Not overly difficult. No holes stood out of the pack. They were neither uniquely authentic nor aethetically memorable. Water plays on almost all holes, mostly along the fairway edge rough. A lot of hidden water so the in cart GPS was very useful and necessary. No drinking water available on the course and although we were told a beverage cart would be available it never showed. They give you about 15 range balls to practice. No woods or drivers allowed. The Cafe is sparse with your basic burger, hot dog and French fries fare with 2 tvs showing sports. Only 1 other person was there. The pro shop is limited too. No orange balls and no ball markers for sale. Plenty of other swag if you want it.
