Terrific layout. Beware the back nine.

This course will lull you to sleep on a relatively easy front nine. The back nine will eat your lunch unless you play it smart. Quite a few forced carries to the fairways, but the ladies tees play too short for good players. One big problem that Legend Trail needs to address...the poa annua grass is spotty and sometimes thick everywhere, fairways and greens. Later in the day, the greens are very lumpy and difficult to putt. Otherwise, this is one of the most interesting layouts in the valley, in my opinion.

Nice layout. Greens are very true.

We enjoyed our round, and had a great pairing, since we were a twosome. Course is very playable and the greens were in great shape.

I would skip this one.

We played roughly a five hour round, with a substantial wait between every shot. The course is relatively flat, and not very interesting, although the greens rolled nicely. The sand traps were like concrete and probably haven't been worked in quite a long time. The snack shop/restaurant closed at 3:00 PM and the soda machine at the driving range did not work properly. No drinks or snacks were available after our round. No drink cart that we ever saw. We played the "C" and "A" nines. We have played many courses in the Hawaiian islands, and we were quite disappointed with the overall experience.

We would highly recommend this course

Very nice layout. Challenging, but fair. The pace of play was very good. This is very attractive course with nice clubhouse amenities. The overall design (Ted Robinson) is very well thought out and we had a very enjoyable experience. We would recommend this course and will play it again on our next trip to Oahu.

This course is worth playing

Challenging golf course, though more than a bit narrow in many places. A few of the holes we considered a little gimmicky, but the course is worth your time. The greens rolled very well. Priced reasonably for the area.

Nice course, but the new greens are ridiculous

The south course replaced their greens in the summer of 2022, and they are hard as rocks. No matter how much spin on a shot, it will not hold. Every shot runs through the greens. With the number of false fronts, hitting shots short is also not generally an option. Greens are also very shaggy, so you have the worst combination possible, hard and slow greens. the course layout is very nice, except for #17, which is a bit gimmicky. Difficult lay up and a long second over a gorge. Overall, terrific course, but just too difficult to play the greens right now.

Golf at Red Mountain Ranch

This course is fun. The greens are extremely firm and challenging, and a few are quite small. Areas around the greens are generally decent, but the traps are hard packed and have little sand base in some areas. Cart paths are quite rough in places, and some of the playing surfaces have been worn through with heavy cart traffic. Overall, a nicely laid out course, but in need of some major maintenance to bring it up to standards. Many tee boxes are not even close to level. Enjoyed the day, though at a greens fee of about $110 per person.
