Going down fast

Used to be a really nice course but this was the worst I ever seen it. Rough tee boxes. Dead areas in the fairways. Lot of dirt. Construction. Greens punched and didn't warn us. Fairways punched so they made us do cart path only. Very bad experience overall.

Nice course! Play lagged.

The course itself was well kept, staff absolutely Great! Took me 5 and a half hours to do 18. It’s not a long course but a lot of waiting on the back nine.

Excellent

Last minute round at legacy. Got paired up with two ladies and one senior. Had a relaxing, enjoyable and entertaining round. The greens were a little bumpy because it was late in the afternoon. It’s probably best to go to the course in the early morning before heavy traffic. It’s worth the money. Enjoy

Perfect weather
Used cart

Mixed bag - Over zealous Marshalls Ruin a Good Day

Right off....the biggest reason for the two stars are the marshalls who are, shall we say, over zealous in executing their duties.

They are fast to chide you for falling behind after a bad hole (and some of the hole designs don't do anything to help this either) but do nothing to help pace of play such as assist in looking for lost balls which is the main delay on a couple of holes (again, due to how the holes are designed). They lurk on the front nine like a cop lurks in a speed trap. Really ruins a round when you are being watched like that.

Also confounding is that they don't recognize those legally carrying a handicap flag to gain greater access on the course as happened to one person in our group. We were told to get the cart away from the green in one instance with no regard for the blue handicap flag flying on the cart. A courtesy that should be extended to those who have legitimate accessibility issues like on most courses.

Also confounding: no drop zones, no seed bottles on the carts nor no seed buckets on tee boxes to fix divots.
