Legacy Golf Club
About
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.

Course was super busy waiting every shot despite starting on both 9's .Barley finished before dark .Hot deals should not be victimized because of course overbooking .
Initial review
Good course for all levels of golfers—greens in good shape and fairways generous—good sand in bunkers— course was a little wet from rains but overall very good and straight forward
First time playing and had the benefit of playing with 2 outstanding individuals who supplied great local knowledge .Will play again for sure /
Play Holiday!
Greens are in excellent shape after being redone - larger and undulating. Tee boxes were a bit scruffy, but the fairways are also excellent. The course is mostly open off the tee with beautiful holes and great course layout. I love playing here!
Typical municipal golf course not great but not bad green fee to high for what you get
Good golf course great value
The course was in great shape today. Place of play was very good. The greens are some of the best.
Nice coarse
Pro shop could be friendlier. But who cares, they don’t golf with you.
Good course
Good day. Pace of play was good. Course was in great shape. Fast greens.
Challenging course. Good shape. Fast but true greens.
Thanksgiving Golf
Played golf on Thanksgiving Day and the weather was very nice, just a little breezy. The guy working in the Pro Shop must have been upset for having to work, you could tell he did not want to be at work. LOL
The greens are always in good shape.
Fast Greens
Greens where very fast with lots of break. The 12:51 tee time did not allow enough time to complete the round before dark.. will play here again but with an earlier tee time.
Another good one!
Always a challenge, even when you played it within the last month. Just can't seem to get a handle on the greens...maybe next time.
Teemed up with nice folks who set the bar.
A Very Enjoyable Round of Golf!!
A very pleasant day of golf!! The course is in very good shape and the greens provided an enjoyable challenge! After experiencing Hurricane Michael just 13 months ago, the maintenance staff needs to be applauded for their performance.. Another must play if you're in the Panama City Beach, Florida area. Minutes away from the beaches!!
good Course
Appreciate pro working with us. Pace was good friendly
Holiday Golf Course
Our golfnow tee time was 12:33 but we were early and ready to play by 11:55. The starter told us we had to wait. We have played here several times in the past few weeks and this was the first time we were told to wait. Not one group teed off before us and then four groups were sent out one after the other. What would it have hurt to let us out early and not jam up all the groups? Probably won’t be back at Holiday for a while. We’ll go to Panama Country Club.
Staying a month near by
I finally played the main course, showed up as a single at 8am , knowing I saw on golf now they had openings for 1 or 2 players that morning, young man behind counter said he had no openings until 10:30, I had bought a 10 round card months before, so I took a round at 10:30. While I chipped and putting on the green near by, I watched a few pairs go off that I could of joined, a few groups later a single man went to the tee , I walked over and asked to join him , no problem, teed off 45 minutes early than my tee time, you know the so called times that weren't available. Thick course really goes out of there way to push members first,. Do not play here if there member DOG FIGHT is on the course it will slow the course down to a crawl , they play in two fivesomes, management will not stop them!!!
