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.

Best greens in PCB

The course was in great condition and was probably the best greens I've played all summer, and definitely the best greens in Panama City Beach. All around a great value, looking forward to our next round.

Great course. Love the lay out and grass was soft. Greens are great just hard to read. But I would absolutely come back and play again. Staff is very friendly and had great customer service.

Got a great deal on this course on GolfNow. It was in ok condition. Some of the greens were spotty. Some holes were tight, others wide open.

Not what I expected

Guy at the desk not the friendliest. Cart guy was pleasant and he was outside in the heat. Course was fun. Not perfect. Some areas of the green looked to have been recently repaired but it wasn’t major and for sure not a deal breaker. Costly round but that was to be expected given the month and location. Pace of play wasn’t great. Good company made it tolerable. Shout to Jamison. Young man. Old soul.

Legacy is getting better

I golfed here a couple months ago and the greens were in terrible shape. Something I had never seen before on this course. We decided we would not come back until the greens had recovered. Although not all the way back the greens were about 80% recovered and made this an enjoyable round. The best greens on the beach look like they are returning.

Very nice course

I read some reviews from a week to weeks old complaining about the staff and the greens. I had no issue with either. Very friendly staff and greens overall were in great shape.
