Course with no homes and at one with Low Country nature

My favorite course among 40 in the area.
Great layout with challenging well maintained greens.
Of historical interest:recently discovered archaeological site of late 1500s St. Elena Spanish community established many years before Jamestown and Plymouth Rock----right next to the course.

A big part of what of what we call "The Legends Experience" is seeing and hearing what the recruits endure to become United States Marines. God Bless America, indeed!

Enjoyed my round a lot. I'd say this is shot makers layout, not super long and no tricks. Interesting greens. Wonderful staff.

Fun course in a nice setting.

We played here after our round on HHI was cancelled due to recent hurricane. Very pretty course set right on Port Royal Sound. Each hole is named after a famous marine, giving it a historical feel. Be sure to bring a picture ID so that you can get on base.

Worth the drive from Hilton Head

The Legends is a well-maintained course, very playable for a reasonable price. If you play, stop by the Santa Elena memorial and Spanish fort site down a short distance. from the clubhouse.

Best Greens In The Region

Course design is a bit mudane, but out in the marsh with no homes just natural surroundings. The pro shop has the feel of a comfortable munie. Look at price options carfully. Walk ons without military experience pay more.

Worth the Drive

Staying on HHI we trolled GN for deals and found it at Legends. Above average layout with some neat holes. We played the Golden Bear GC the day before...a higher rated course, and the Legends greens were 10 x better. The rest tee to green was in great shape. No homes on the course and this part of the island has some interesting history which you can read about on a self-guided tour after your round. We also drove around the base and saw some of our soon to be finest going through the basics! Don't expect a nice grill room atmosphere with 10 draft selections. A can of Bud and a burger on a styro plate...old school but tasted good. The staff was great!! And so was the golf.

Great day of golf

This was a great day of golf and a great value. It may not be Harbourtown, but just getting to see Parris Island is a great thing and the course and greens are in good shape. The greens were fast and green and the course was challenging. If you hit it straight you will be safe, but water is in many places if you slice.

People were extremely friendly and I would recommend to others.

Parris Island Legends Golf Course - Sweet!

Extremely well managed and cared for golf course. High quality course that was a true pleasure to play. We could hear the recruits going through their training elsewhere on the Island and the wildlife was abundant, The greens played fast but were very well rolled and consistent. The roughs were, well rough. All in all a fantastic course with many challenging shots. Loved it, and the staff was very friendly too.
