Lanier Islands Resort - Legacy Golf Course

Challenging for a 20 handicap but an awesome course on the lake. Book direct.

Third time playing tjis course. First, staff is exceedingly friendly. Great challenging layout, course is in great condition. Some extra challenging holes, really fun to play.....definately coming back!

Beautiful course, but expect to lose a couple balls in the water. My biggest gripe is that they do not put out any water on the course on weekdays, nor does the clubhouse stay open past 5:00 pm. I was very thirsty at the end of my round!

I have played Legacy on Lanier several times and I ALWAYS have a great time playing the course. The course is ALWAYS in excellent condition (fairways are lush, greens are smooth, fast fun, bunkers are fantastic and the entire course is always in great condition). The views of Lake Lanier throughout the entire round were fantastic. The clubhouse was small but nice. The practice area was really nice with unlimited balls and a good chipping green. The course itself was amazing. I highly recommend Legacy on Lanier. It is better than most of the private courses around the Gwinnett County area.

Overall great course.

Course plays longer than the scorecard shows. There’s some tough drives. Worth playing, not at full price however.

What a beautiful course! By far the prettiest views of Lake Lanier and the surrounding area of any course in Atlanta.

It is an EXCELLENT value as well. With your greens fees you get unlimited range balls, unlimited soft drinks unlimited hot dogs, unlimited bottled water, cookies, snacks, etc. The best value in the area.

The course requires accuracy off the tee as most of the holes are along the shores of Lake Lanier. If your tee shots are off target, chances are you will end up in Lake Lanier.

The practice area is very nice and has great practice facilities.

Legacy on Lanier is the must play course in the area and by far one of the best values in terms of course layout, course beauty, value (free drinks, food and snacks included in the greens fees).

First time I have played the course since it was redone, it is a great course to play!

I have played a number of the private courses in the northern Atlanta area. I would put legacy up there among the best. Beautiful views. Great layout. Some very challenging holes. Great value.

Easily one of the least enjoyable rounds of golf ever played. A miserable 5 hour round that included no help from staff to speed up pace of play. Two foursomes hitting multiple shots and not keeping up with groups ahead ruined the afternoon for all trailing parties. When you have to stand and wait for minutes between every single shot the staff must make changes. Did not see a marshal riding the course until the 17th green. Finally after the round was finished around 6:30 we were informed the club was already locked and were refused use of any restrooms while the cart attendant suggested using the woods next to the parking lot. This will be the one and only round ever played at this course.

What a beautiful course!

First of all, Legacy on Lanier is visually pretty dang intimidating. It makes up for that by not being overly long, but be ready to really commit to your tee balls and approach shots.

It was a nasty, wet day (with cart path only, as expected) in the middle of February, so I wasn't expecting too much conditions-wise. But even so, it wasn't great. With the really interesting mounding and green complexes, it would be a really fun test with firm and fast conditions. I can't wait to come back and check it out in dryer months. Tee boxes were quite bare. I'd be frustrated if I had paid full rate.

Really happy with the complimentary lunch & soft drinks as well as the practice facilities. Like I said, I can't wait to come check it out on a firm and fast day.

Come check it out!

Played here a few times but never done a review. For a resort course in the fall in was in immaculate shape. The greens where really pure and the views of the lake on the back nine where real nice. The clubhouse was small but nice the range was really nice with unlimited balls and a good chipping green. The course itself was really nice 11,12,13,14,15 are really strong holes. There used to be 2 courses here however it went bankrupt about 12 years ago.

The area around the course and the resort are very nice and I thought that the Legacy Lodge was pretty nice. The food there was good and the view was amazing. Overall great course.

Terrific golf outing on a good layout overlooking Lake Lanier . Staff was friendly, course in great shape. Looking forward to a return soon.

Greens were very challenging for sure. Not a complaint, just to let others know when you play here make sure you bring your patience with your putter.

I really enjoyed the experience playing here. The course isn't particularly long but it definitely isn't for the faint hearted. There is ample water around as you would expect and at least one third of the holes involve a blind tee shot or one with a severe dog leg. I found the tee shots about as intimidating as any other course I've played this year.

The staff at the course were great and a super welcome touch was the provision of complementary blimpies and various non-alcoholic drinks both prior to teeing off and at the turn.

Maybe a little steep in terms of the cost relative to some of the other local tracks but still good value for money in my opinion. I'll be back

The course has many beautiful golf holes right along the shores of Lake Lanier.

It is great that included in your greens fees are range balls, drinks, snacks, hot dogs. The best deal around and the best course in the area.

The course is in great shape. The greens are smooth and fast.

Lake Lanier Islands is a first class place. I will definitely be back to play time and time again!!!

A great value as Lanier provides the cart, range balls, course and breakfast foods and hot dogs plus drinks in the price. The staff is always friendly and there was hardly anyone on the course which made for fast play. Fairways and greens are in immaculate shape. A fun and beautiful golf experience.

Great course, great layout. Many challenging holes around the lake. Only negative was the greens had been aerated 3 weeks before so the ran a bit slow. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Food and beverages included was a plus! Sucks for the cart girl.
