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.

Great course ran horrible

I’ve came up two different times now and haven’t been able to finish my round. Once because they let too many people take carts by themselves so they ran out And today because nobody managed pace of play. Today was 4 hours and waiting on the tee box at 15 before I finally gave up. Quite ridiculous for a weekday round. I recommend spending a little more money and going somewhere that actually keeps up with these things and makes it right. Not o well your just another number.

Coming Along

We all know most public courses in the area had bad die-offs this past winter. Legacy was affected pretty badly. However, the greens are in fantastic shape. Many of the fairways have bare spots, and hopefully now that the temperatures are staying higher that will be better soon. I shot a comfortable 75 despite them. Ill take nice greens and bad fairways any day of the week. I only had to move my ball over to some grass maybe once or twice. It was fine, and I’ll keep playing Legacy until other courses get their greens back. Speaking of the greens, some of those pin placements are not fooling around. Tucked, on slopes, you name it. Tough spots. But fun. Great day.

PS: Get some new carts and new range balls, because YIKES.

Nice challenging golf course!

Played here many times last year and the mosquitoes were awful. This year I can say that they have cleaned up the stagnant water areas and eliminated this issue.
The golf course plays nice and challenging with pretty good looking fairways and greens. The bunkers are also better than you’ll find at most other public courses. Overall, worth playing here.

Surprised

Greens in really nice shape for the time of year.
Bunkers have fresh sand.
Fairways were dead still but not any standing water or anything like that.
Played at a comfortable pace and had a good time.

Great Challenging Course

The course was in great shape, and it was fun to play. It is extremely important to hit your drives straight. If one misses the landing areas, it makes for a challenge to the green. There are elevation changes, but nothing too severe. It would be very difficult to play this course without a cart. I did get hot chocolate from the club house prior to starting the round, and service was great. I would recommend this course to a friend. We played other courses in the Nashville area, and this was by far the most challenging of the three.

Golfing in November!!

Golfed with. my brother-in-law from Indianapolis area. It was perfect! This was my second time playing The Legacy. His first. As expected, the fairways and rough were brown, after all, it is November. But the tee boxes and greens were in great shape. The natural beauty, and the course challenge were still there. It was a great day all around.

Fall Golf

Leaves are falling, trees getting bare and the zoysia fairways have assumed their post summer hay color. However, how can you beat a cloudless blue sky day with other affable golfers that share their knowledge of the course, particularly, when you’re the newbie seeing the course for the first time. I thoroughly enjoyed the course, the hills, towering knolls, elevated greens with some nasty slopes, twists and turns, even the beach. Will definitely play this course when in Nashville which occurs many times a year. It’s a golfer’s golf course.

A Quality course

This course is one of the top courses in middle TN even the whole state. Consistently well maintained and courteous staff. This course is very chllenging for me ,but that is a reason i return to play it. Greens are usually firm undulating, and quick down grain. A good test for anyone. Pick a forward tee if its your first tound there. You'll have a fun time.

Do not trust reviews

I always check reviews before playing a course. Three different reviews from last week raved about the perfect and smooth greens. That is just a flat out LIE. I played on Monday, Oct 17. While the course is in very good shape for this time of year, the greens are far from perfect and smooth! They were aerated about three weeks ago and are still bumpy and scarred. That tells me they were worse 7 days ago. The reviewers (u31463477438, kdm617, u328279870) must work for or be friends of the course because they are just lying about the greens. Honest reviews only. Please.

Really fantastic course.

I had been encouraged by many random players over the last year and a half to check this course out. So glad I made the trek out to Springfield. What a pleasure it was!

Great layout which caused you to be thoughtful and decisive on just about every shot. Short game needs to be dialed in to shoot low but even if you are a higher handicap this course will be a lot of fun. Greens rolled very true and but still held tight with approach shots.

I thoroughly enjoyed playing the course and will be back soon.

Great start to a Nashville trip

I remember watching Raymond Floyd back when I loved watching Nicklaus and other legends. It was an honor to play on a course he designed. We will make it a regular visit when we go to Nashville.
