Working to improve
I really enjoyed the layout of the course. You can see that they are working to improve the course, adding new tee boxes and working on the clubhouse. The tee boxes are in need or some TLC. Most are fairly bare from overuse. Some bare spots in the fairways. Not worth the current price. The grass on the range is well used and does not have good area to hit from.
Great for $55
So I used a coupon code from GolfNow to play and got on for $55 each for four of us. I think that was great for the course. Not sure if Id pay $129-159 regular price though. We came during the remodel so couldnt give many stars for off course amenities but they had a converted connex as the golf shop with enough stuff that you would need if you forgot anything. The staff was super friendly and they were kind enough to push our tee time back when one of my guys was late. Overall its great, just not sure if Id pay the regular price. Would definitely go back for $55 a round which apparently is a steal for that course. Not to mention I drove the green on hole 15!
Great day at Legacy
Haven't played the course since last year. Very much improved. Great layout. Paved cart paths big plus. Challenging and fun, used all my clubs.
Great for all skills
We have been out here twice now. The course is in outstanding condition, the greens are well maintained and provide some different looks. The scenery is pleasant. The course is open enough to not frustrate average players and yet create some challenging opportunities for more skilled players. The staff is friendly. They are making some changes which will even make it better. Thanks for a great outing! I highly recommend giving this a try. One of the better, and more reasonable, options in the Pinehurst area.
Pace could be better
There are a lot of improvements going on but the actual playing area is really good. Once everything is finished this will be one of the best tracks around. Pace was slow, honestly mainly due to some US Kids practice rounds, and by US Kids I mean mainly parents holding things up. Still I really like this course and am excited to see the improvements take shape.
Legacy is being reborn
Ok, if you like to complain about things there is plenty to complain about right now. They are working throughout the property so know that it’s a year away from growing in all over the course. The greens are being left alone right now. Recently punched. But, and is a huge BUT, it’s gonna be awesome. Play it now and watch the changes
Awesome Day
Played at 1108. Never had anyone behind us, perfect day of golf.
Legacy
The facility is undergoing renovation, with new tees added to several holes, adding length, bunker renovations, changing a the 16th to a very long par 4 and changing the 18th from an impossible par 4 into a risk reward par 5. With all the work and changes the facility is a year or two away from being worth what they are now charging for greens fees under the new ownership.
Making good upgrades
The course is beautiful and the renovations are making it even better. While the clubhouse is under renovation there is a good food truck.
Clubhouse closed for construction - porta-toilets in the parking lot. Lots of tee box issues, and signs say new boxes "coming soon". Many cups were set incorrectly leaving top edge above the surface.
Overall disappointing for the price charged.
Wished I would’ve known!
Legacy is a beautiful layout and I will definitely play it again. Now for the tough love. Please communicate that the course, clubhouse and general facilities are going through major reconstruction. Cart paths and most of course is like a war zone. Knowing this before paying a premium price would have manage our expectations.
Secondly, our groups were blended into a Memorial Day member scramble. It was so painfully slow (6+ hour pace) and we were ready to leave until the three foursomes ahead us left after 13 holes. Again, the course and Golf Now needs to manage customers’ expectations and communicate pace of play and course conditions. Disappointed in the experience but will play it again after all their planned construction is completed.
The 18th was the challenge of the roune
One of the joys of playing Legacy isn't just navigating the undulating terrain or holding your breath as your approach shot flirts with disaster on the island green at the 18th—it's the people you meet along the way.
If you're the type who enjoys golf as both a game and a conversation starter, Legacy’s welcoming vibe is tailor-made for you
On any given day, you might find yourself partnered with a retired schoolteacher who’s convinced he can still stripe a drive 250 yards (bless his optimism), a weekend warrior working out the latest mechanical flaw in his swing, or even someone who—purely by coincidence—shares the name of a top-ten PGA Tour player. We would tell you which one, but privacy laws prevent us from exposing this stranger to the pressures of living up to his coincidental namesake. (Let’s just say his short game was not at risk of threatening any major championship leaderboards.)
So the course conditions are definitely worth playing at this time? I have a tee time booked in a couple weeks for a golf trip and am trying to decide if I want to keep it. I know construction is going on. Does that affect play? Do they sell any food/snacks or have a cart girl? Thanks in advance for any info you provide!
