Always a solid course

This is by far one of the best courses in SC. Course is always in near pristine conditions. Recently, the greens have been better than ever and tee boxes and fairways have very few blemishes. Staff is always friendly and accommodating. Practice areas are worth the trip alone. Highly recommend this course

Awesome course!

In my opinion the best course in the area! Even with the greens being aerated, they still held, rolled true, and were in very good condition. I will be playing there more often.

Returned after a year and a half travels. Course was in better shape than I remember it. They have done a lot of clean up work on the whole course. Keep up the great work!!

Dissapointed

I’ve read all the reviews and I disagree completely that this is a great course. It’s fair at best. The only “good” thing about it was the greens. The hassle to get on base was amplified by the fact that our names “were not on the list” of golfers provided by the golf course. Our car was searched as if we were terrorists and we were kept in a trailer for 45 minutes waiting for an escort to the course - who never came. By the time we made it to the course, we had missed our tee time and were hustled to the first tee without a warm up. The pro shop was pretty rude about it all and our inquiry about former military duty rates. We were paired with a military member who gave the impression he was annoyed by us and rushed us through the round. The entire experience gave us the impression that everyone there was inconvenienced by us civilians. I’m not going back, especially when there are plenty of other and similarly priced options.

Hidden Low country Gem

The Legends course at Parris Island is one of the best layouts and best kept public courses in the low country. Smooth lush fairways and fast greens. The layout is challenging for all skill levels with some forced carries, wind exposed greens, and a lot of water. I always enjoy playing this course and with the hot deal of $14 through GolfNow it was a no-brainer.

Nice course, great value.

Course was in very nice condition. Pace of play was good, relatively fast. Greens in very good condition, rolled true, and a bit difficult to read.

Worth the drive

We played the Legends course on a hot day in June. Fortunately, the course had plenty of drinking water available. The layout is very good, with some straightforward holes and some with hazards coming into play. Our biggest complaint was the greens. They are Bermuda with a lot of exposed sand - causing graininess and bumpiness. But the course layout makes up for the greens. And the experience of playing on a USMC base was fantastic. Two fighter jets flew right over us on the fourth green - an awesome sight to see. The gentleman in the pro shop was extremely nice and very informative. It's worth the drive to play there.

One of the finest courses in the area. Greens were being worked on, but teeboxes and everything else was great. Highly recommend.

Good layout

Mostly straight away, but quite a bit of lateral water. Watch out for the alligators! Note when making reservations that the Golfnow rate quoted will be the active military rate. (Course is at the Marine Corps Recruit Depot.). John Q Citizen pays $55, but good value. Beer and range balls are more than reasonable. Don’t miss the target range silhouettes on the driving range. Semper Fi!!

First Time Playing Legends

My husband and I enjoyed our round of golf at the Legends. The course was in good condition. We enjoyed the layout of the course and the fact that it is truly in a natural setting - lots of wildlife to see. We would definitely return to play again.

Golf course was in great shape and a ton of fun to play. Even though the course see lots of rounds, was in great condition. Layout was fun with different types of holes, forcing you to go through your whole bag. Staff was fantastic, very friendly head professional and other staff.
Would love to come back!
