Great Desert Layout

Terrific course. Great mix of holes. #3 is cool. Greens were spectacular. Desert course but very generous fairways The staff was also great...from starter to bev staff. Great replay rate too! No reason to not play36. Bonus...Bobcat and other animals. Not the cheapest, but well worth it!

I'm great shape

Nice greens...not too slow. Good condition throughout. Ranks up there with more expensive courses. There is a good mix of holes but all the doglegs do get a little old. The good course conditions more than make up for the crooked holes. Low risk move to play here.

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.

Best conditions of any course in central Ohio

Great greens! Great conditions all around. The staff was fantastic as well...especially the crew in the pro shop. Top notch! Pace is slow. Tough course for most. It's well worth it, but don't expect a 4 hour round. Bank on closer to 5 hr and take the time to look around. There's a post card view around every corner.

The past year has been very good to Royal American

Much improved course. Great greens! Bunkers are well maintained. The areas that needed attention are getting it. Staff was great and they have a nice selection of craft drafts. Cart paths need work, but no reason to not make the drive out. Well worth it.

Good value for blue grass course

Interesting layout. Bent grass greens in good shape, but know that the rest of the course is blue grass. If you want bent throughout, head over to clovervalley. Staff was great, but snack shop was just that. Its a real haul for us to get to this course so we will not be back on regular basis, but we want to play again at some point. And we walked the course. Very walkable.

Too Many Other Good Courses Around

Other than the strategic bunkering, the course does not have much character. Flat with not much vegitaton. GPS on carts in critical to know the carry on the bunkers. Don't waste time trying to locate rakes in bunkers. We think they took them off the course as a pace of play thing. If raking, rounds would take 5 hrs. We just pulled balls from footprints, etc no big deal. Greens are pretty good, but very firm and non-receptive. If you get a good deal on green fees, this is not a bad track...but not recommended or a "must play". Play Jacaranda, Deer Creek, or Osprey Point.

Best Greens on Golf Trip

Played 7 rounds on differet courses on recent golf trip to Ft Lauderdale and these were the best greens of all. Smooth an reasonably quick. All other course conditions very good as well. Excellent track with very interesting holes. We played Raven/Falcon. Did not play Hawk. Somewhat narrow course with wetlands and waste areas, but very, very playable. Don't be too proud to leave driver in bag on certain holes. Select correct tees and have fun.
