About
The Legacy Golf Course is one of Robertson County's must-play courses. Opened in 1996, it is not as old as some other courses in the area but the designer, Raymond Floyd, took advantage of the existing mature woodlands spread throughout the lush, rolling hills. At 6,755 yards, the course is seemingly short but it is narrow, and be prepared to face troublesome hazards almost everywhere. It is notorious for making balls from even the most slightly errant shots disappear. It is a tough but fair challenge. The golf course starts with a tricky par 5 with a bunker on the right followed by a par 4 that requires a 200-yard carry or you'll surely be faced with trouble. The back nine at Legacy G.C. is slightly less difficult but there are still plenty of hazards as well as several blind shots.

Will continue to return!
Had another lovely day at The Legacy. Booked a hot deal, and a short while later got a call (and a text) from the pro shop letting me know the greens had been aerated earlier in the week. I was itching to play and the fact that they went out of their way to let me know, I decided to make the trip anyway. As I expected the grounds crew had done a wonderful job of top dressing the greens and all but two putts were smooth all day. Anyone not wishing to blame their game on someone else would agree. The tees and fairways are still dormant, which is completely normal this time of year. There were some really tight lies but you could also putt from just about anywhere around the green because of the dormant grass. First time playing here not in the height of golf season and I was pleasantly surprised. I'll have no fear of being disappointed at any time of year. Highly recommended!

Challenging greens and layout.
Played on a Hot Deal of $40.00 per player including all fees and taxes. Course was recovering from a big wind and rain storm a few days prior so lots of downed trees etc... being cleaned up. Dormant fairways were in good shape. Greens were smooth, fast, and very challenging with a lot of slope/undulation in all of them. The layout has a lot of character and is challenging as well. Good course that I look forward to playing again.

For the time of year this course was in great shape, they have made some improvements with concrete cart paths, it is a challenging course and fun to play! Worth the drive to get there

Course changes in effect
First time playing the Legacy in about two years. First off it was a beautiful afternoon to play golf! I was impressed with the green speed and smoothness as the last time I had played they were a little longer and slower (bent grass). Several of the holes had new cart paths and much of the brush was cut down on many of the holes creating it much more playable. Sand traps had nice, new sand in them and have come a long way from what they were (un-maintained). If you haven’t played this Ray Floyd design in a while, give it a try!
Your feedback is important to us. Thank you for sharing your 5-star experience. We look forward to seeing you again at the course soon! Thanks for choosing The Legacy.
We are so pleased that you enjoyed your time at The Legacy. We look forward to seeing you on the course soon for another 5-star experience!
Always Fun
Course was in awesome shape for this time of year. The new portions of cart path are really nice. Legacy continues to be challenging and the greens always in great shape.
Thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing The Legacy.

Look forward to playing when weather conditions improve. Looks like work is being done to improve experience, layout is fair, greens are good and consistent.

Never Dissappointed
I love to play this course every time I'm in town. It never disappoints me. They continue to improve the course. Adding new cart paths in now. Greens are in great shape for January. I will play it again next trip! Thanks!
Thanks for the amazing review and for choosing The Legacy. We hope to see you again soon!
Fun course
Had 836 Tee Time
Course in good condition considering it had rained overnight.
Great Layout, tight course and had plenty of challenging holes.
Couple things that keeped it from being a 5
Pace of play, Awful! 5hr round not acceptable and no ranger anywhere.
Also after a convo with the group behind us they shot on us a handful of times with us unable to go anywhere. Again situation like this is where a Ranger is needed.
We apologize for the pace of play issue you experienced. We always try to keep a great pace when having our golfers on the course. Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback as we will use your review to better the experience going forward. We hope you give us another try in the near future!
Awesome layout, Great greens
Passing through the Nashville area and was looking for a course to play and saw this on GN. After reading the reviews of this and several other courses I settled for The Legacy...and boy was I pleased with my decision. Awesome layout, greens were in very great shape for winter and I was able to get around in only a few hours.
Keep up the great work.
Challenging course but lots of fun.
This course is challenging, but it's in great shape and always fun to play. The greens are in great shape and the fairways looked great as well.
Course played great.
Overall the course was in great shape. The fairways and greens were both nice.
Good Day
The course was in nice condition, good tee boxes and fairways with plenty of cushion for fairway woods, the rough was well maintained if you found yourself in it. The greens are slow and soft, great for long iron shots, short wedges get very little roll. We played on Labor Day, pace was nice, never pushed and never felt pushed. I’ve played this course a bunch and always have a great experience.
