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.

Great time.
We had not played at Holiday for a couple of years. The course is in great shape! We really enjoyed our round.
A fun course to play.
We played the course on a breezy day from the North. Had to step down a couple of clubs some holes due to the breeze. The course is a very nice layout, enough water to keep you honest, traps not overly punitive and greens were excellent. Lots of right dog legs made it more challenging for us lefties. Highly recommend this course for anyone.
Very nice day to play
Holiday was in very good condition and the price was very good.
holiday golf course
Holiday golf course is a well maintained and well laid out course.
The greens are superb and the fairways are very nice as well.
First time playing
Not bad, worth playing. Course is taken care of, fairways are generous and greens are big.
holiday golf course
The course was very well maintained and clean
There is a great little bar and pro shop as well
I will return at a later date to play again.
Nice experience, great conditions.
Was looking for a decent course to play while on vacation, First time we played this course. Course was a nice layout, without too many water hazards, which can wreck a near the beach vacation round while playing an unfamiliar course. Greens were a bit slow, but undulated and consistent and in good shape. Bunkers were in top shape. Staff was nice and they had a refreshment cart making rounds. Will definitely play here again.
Slow play.
No marshal monitoring pace of play. Group in front of us very slow and no golf equitte.
Very busy. Course long but not a lot of water or bunkers.
Happy holiday
Course and greens were in good shape. Greens were slower than accustomed to playing. Rough had been cut and was much easier to find balls that missed the fairway. Our three some played in less than four hours. Second time playing this course and would go back again.
Great Golf
Love this place. We have played here for years. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. The course is almost always in great condition.
In Great Shape
I have played this course before, but it was several years ago. The course conditions were very nice. Greens were a little slow compared to back home, but ran true. All in all it was enjoyable and relaxing.
Best course in the area
Love the layout. The greens and fairways are pretty darn perfect. I play it every winter. Great group of gals too
long
have to play the senior tees to be able to compete on the course.
Nice afternoon
Greens were excellent. Fairways looked pretty good but were soaked from recent rainstorms. I'd play again
New to area
Trying local courses, very nice facility, great staff, course was wet but decent condition, nice greens. Straightforward layout, what you see is what you got. On my list to replay!
Hot hot hot
Had a bad round , even at my talent level. The course was in great shape, lush fairways, greens in perfect conditions. The
heat and humidity were high, and my round suffered from exhaustion. Later in the afternoon when the sea breeze came in the conditions improved and I get a second wind, much better end to the day. All in all a very nice course with a fair layout for golfers of all skill levels. I will play it again on a cooler day.
Wonderful Course (but bring your own water)
Teed off at 7:20 with a couple members. Course conditions were perfect, from the tee box to the greens. Not a long course, but still able to hit driver most holes. Fun layout. Creek that seems to come into play on every single hole (somehow). Only 2 complaints: 1) There are NO water coolers on the course. Only water is a fountain at a bathroom that you only pass twice. Guess they are trying to force you to pay for drinks. 2) Lady at the bar was extremely rude. Couldn't even make a decent egg sandwich, and had a serious attitude. Other than that, very pleasurable round. I will be back.
Good value course
Course is in good shape. They don't have a driving range to hit your driver only irons it also cost an extra 6 dollars.
I usually play courses in Destin area but this was worth the 30 min drive to Panama City
Nice and Fun Course
This is a fun course to play. Not as much water as I thought. The fairways are in excellent condition. Everything is green. The greens are challenging and are quite a change of pace from flat ones I normally play. The staff was extremely nice and I recommend the grilled ham and cheese sandwich, fantastic. My only issue is that it was somewhat hot and they didn't have very many stations for water, but that is so minor an issue.
