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.

Good Course, Bad Timing

Second time playing this course in 3 years and same issues occur with the greens. I think my annual vacay aligns with their greens remodeling and aerating so half of them were a beach where I felt compelled to rake my footprints after putting. Staff is amazing as well as the rest of the course. Would definitely recommend whenever they aren’t doing greens maintenance!

Decent value for money considering the area

Range was not it good condition the hitting mats had holes and weren’t in good shape. Overall the course was in decent shape nice views a lot of water. Tee boxes were pretty rough I get the price considering it’s PCB but in my home area it’s a $30-50 course.

Green's

Everything on the course was good except the greens they were in bad shape alot of dead spots they had recently been punched and sanded ,looks like they are trying to get a handle on them but it will take some time. I work at a golf course so I know how expensive it is to keep up a golf course but with that said the price point was pretty steep for the playing conditions and for myself I will not return until they get them under control.

Sandy Greens w/ no communication

We paid $120 to pay on sandy greens. No one even thought to mention it. The course is fine and the starter and server Lauren in the grill were extremely nice. To pay that kind of money to play those greens was a major disappointment.

Sand wedge needed on the good The only way I could

Maintenance decided to top dress the back nine greens on the day I played. I would not have played at Legacy if I knew in advance the top dressing would take place. Major disappointment

The young lady in the pro shop was very nice

The starter, not so much

I’ve played way better courses.

The greens were in pitiful condition. The layout was pretty good and the fairways were decent. The tee boxes wasn’t quite as bad as the greens. The greens were really what was most disappointing. I’ve played better courses for the same price or lower. This was listed as a hot deal thankfully. So glad we didn’t pay full price. What we did pay was too much for a course in this condition. I will not play this course again for the price we paid.

Out of Towner Swindle

May be the most overpriced course I’ve ever played. Boxes are often uneven and patchy. Greens are in worse condition than your local municipal course. Aside from that, pretty average across the board.

Course needs work

All greens are in poor condition and sandy. No true rolls.

Fair ways are patchy and have lots of weeds.

Could be a very good course, needs weed killer, seed, fertilizer and more water. Staff was nice.

Free range balls if playing.

No value for the conditions

Great staff. Friendly people. Unfortunately they have lost the greens. Used to be the best on the beach. I will watch and see if the greens come back before I play again.
