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.

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.

First time out!

Played Legends for the first time. Enjoyed it completely. Greens cut short and were fast but rolled true. Course layout is challenging but fair. Choice of many tee blocks make it playable for all skill levels in my group. Fairways wide for those mishits. Playing course again in two days. I’m 64 with a 15 handicap.

Fastest greens ever & best condition

I hadn’t played here in a few years & it was in great shape .The fairways are good & the greens are so fast it was difficult to score. Booked thru golf now so the price was better than the course rate but still overpriced for a late t time. Pace of play was great..played in just over 4 hours.

Good course

Course is in good shape. The greens are mowed short and there's not a ton of grass on them so they roll fast. I like fast greens so that was fine. Everything was mowed and course layout is pretty good. I didnt expect it to be pristine

for 85 bucks, this time of the year. Course wise, I'd play it again. Thing that impressed me the most, was the staff! Everyone was very polite and very friendly.

Nice Course

Typical Florida Public Course. In decent shape and played a little slow, but all in all and nice round of golf. Not sure about everyday, but greens were very fast and true. Everyone was super friendly and the beer was cold. If I’m in the area again, I’d play it again.
