Lanier Islands Legacy Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
With an excellent location surrounded by the Blue Ridge Mountains to one side and overlooking Georgia's Great Lake on the other, Lanier Islands Legacy Golf Course provides the perfect setting for a round of golf. The diverse, rolling landscape ranges from dense forest to open meadows to pristine beaches. Water has a strong presence throughout the golf course, coming into play on 12 holes. Many of them play right along the lake's shoreline. At 6,580 yards, the course is not particularly long but it is still a formidable challenge for long hitters since it requires quite a few demanding carries over the water. One of the most memorable holes for this reason is the par-4 12th, which presents an interesting risk-reward opportunity if you dare to cut the corner.

Spectacular !!! Photo submitted by rickwilliams9 on 07/08/2018
Soggy but great
It’s been rainy but we were able to sneak out. One of the more challenging but nicest and most beautiful courses we’ve played!!!
Horrible pace of play
I will not return. The GPS said 30 min behind at the 9th hole. The back 9 was even slower. It was going to be a 6 hr round so we quit early.
Pace of play
Course was in great shape but the course got very backed up. Unfortunately, a ranger wasn’t out to keep things moving.
Thank you for the feedback and kind comments on the golf course condition. We had two groups that were unfortunately a little slow on Friday 6/24, both finished at 4 hours 46 minutes. We do have ranger staff but as we monitor the pace via the GPS software they do not continuously drive around the golf course. The groups were addressed however with multiple twosomes and threesomes I am sure that it would still feel very slow even at 4 hours and 30 minutes which all but two groups completed their rounds within. Thanks for the feedback, we will try and make sure guests know we actively address pace of play problems on a daily basis.

Thank you for the feedback. Upon checking out GPS stats for the 4th July holiday and there were no rounds over 5 hours in length. Our target pace of play is 4:15 though so obviously that was not achieved on the busy July 4th holiday. We do monitor place of play and address throughout the day however with many first time players on the golf course it was somewhat unreasonable to expect anything less than 4:30 and our GPS should have been adjusted accordingly. We accept 5 hours is slow and own that problem on holidays but nothing indicates there was anything close to a 6 hour round of golf yesterday.
