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.

Enjoyed the layout with many forgiving fairways. However, the greens were in excellent condition, challenging at times, but true.

Great course, fairly easy layout, beautiful scenery

I was on vacation and wanted to get a round in while in Florida. Looked on GolfNow and had a few choices. This course has it all, lighted par 3, driving range, nice practice green and a great 18 hole course. Clubhouse looked nice, didn't spend but a few minutes in there, staff was very friendly though. My only complaint and it's my own fault...I had to rent some clubs because I didn't want to bring mine...the clubs left a lot to be desired. Had to play with a super old driver, fwy, hybrid, 1 wedge & putter. The irons were decent with exception of having Half of them regular flex and the other half stiff. Also the grips might have well as been banana peels. But the course itself was in great shape, greens rolled true and were fast. Zero complaints on the actual course layout and conditions.

Solid Golf Course

Nice solid course. Plenty of length. A little to many dog legs rights for my swing set up but a good challenging course. Would go back and play again

Neat Course

Course was a neat 18 hole layout that was pretty challenging. Greens rolled well and the staff was helpful with everything that was needed. One downside was that the course was extremely wet. Great value for beach-goers in PCB

Excellent day of fun golfing

The course was in very good shape. The greens rolled true and the fairways and tees were in excellent shape. I liked the layout. It was challenging for a mid tier golfer but not overwhelming. Even if you hit a 200 to 225 yard drive you had. 170 - 190 to most greens. Need to be able to scramble to score.

Never on Tuesday

Arrived early and got out ahead of our tee time. GREAT. However after one hole we caught up with the foursome in front. Waited and waited only to find there were 2 fivesomes ahead of the foursome. No one in front of them. A ranger showed up and when questioned he said he was told there were 2 fivesomes out when he came to work. I questioned what his job was and he said " I am just out here to ride around". We could easily have gone out on the back nine and never had a problem. There were 3 groups on every hole. Our round took four hours fifty minutes!! Met one of the " group" in the parking lot and was informed they always play on Tuesdays and fivesomes are common in their groups. The course was in very good shape and enjoyable to play but I will not be going back.

Worst experience on a golf course ever

I knew there was a problem when a foursome signed in ahead of me with the same tee time as my threesome. Little did I know that there was yet another threesome with the same tee time. There were a total of five groups trying to play the same hole. Marshal rode by but didn't say or do anything. It took an hour and 15 minutes to play 3 holes. That's when we said to heck with it! The uncaring pro shop man just said "sorry buddy, we are just crowded." I guess you are when you book 10 golfers at the same tee time. I'll never book here again. Both courses at Bay Point are better in every way. It doesn't matter what shape your course is in when you can't play it.
