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.

Not a bad course

Enjoyed the layout. Greens were somewhat bare of grass so not always rolled true. Easy to get to from the Panama City Beach area. Practice are was nice even though you couldn't use driver.

No Singles Before 8am?

Don’t allow singles to go off before 8am even though almost every tee time before then is not booked. Seems like the best time to allow singles to play alone.

Nice course

Checking in was easy, it was prepaid. I asked if we might get off early; very few others around & few cars in lot. He immediately said no mam. We loaded our bags, etc on cart. Starter drove up asking if pro shop had told us how to get to driving range & where to get free range balls. He seemed surprised we were told nothing.

Within 30 minutes starter said he had sent a twosome out earlier & would send us out too.

Great day except front desk is lacking people skills!

If you can get a deal good course

Regular price is high and probably not worth the cost. You usually can catch a deal and then it is a good bargain.

What a nice surprise!

I typically play the Destin courses, but a friend recommended Legacy. It did not disappoint. Fairways and greens (super fast) were perfect. Great value for money. I'll be back.

Greens need work

The course advertises the best greens in the area. But they have cut them too short, leaving patches of little or no grass making putts fast but difficult to read because they are so bumpy. Add to that the day we played the greenskeeper placed many holes on top of ridges or hills in the green. It detracts from the enjoyment of trying to make birdies or saving pars or bogeys. The course layout is non distinct … you don’t come up to one hole and say boy, I would like to play this one.

Not as Good as It Used to Be

Play this course using hot deal or later in the day as $110 prime time rate for the course is too much. Greens were spotty and had disease developing on some. Played in less than 3 hours because course was not crowded in the mid morning. Have played this course for years and it has lost a lot of quality and price has gone way up.

We ended up booking to play this course a second time. Conditions, price and proximity made the decision easy enough to book again. We were paired with another couple which made it even more enjoyable.
