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.

The Legacy-Great Gold Course
I booked my tee time through golfnow and no extra charges. Friendly people at the course and the greens and fairways in great shape. Highly Recommended
Terrible Experience
I had a great time playing this course, but will never return. The people in front of us aggressively got my in groups face due to a shot that fell *near* them. We apologized profusely as any golfer should, no one was hit by a ball and no one was hurt, and they proceeded to let us know they would make sure I wouldn’t play here again due to playing into them, even though they were already off the green, and after I waited 25 minutes for them to finish the hole and another 20 minutes for them to stop trying to pick a fight and actually leave and keep playing. What a joke. I don’t appreciate some 5 foot 45 year old getting in my face over absolutely nothing because he’s got an ego about living in a golf community.
Thank you for reviewing the course. We would like to apologize for your recent experience. Your feedback helps us do better. Thank you for visiting The Legacy. We hope you'll give us another try in the future.
Good Test of Golf
Played this course as part of our annual outing with 5 friends. Course was challenging, great layout, greens were receptive and challenging. Tee boxes need work, needed a hammer a few times to get a tee in the ground but other than that it was a great time and good test of golf.
Thank you for your review! We will pass along your positive experience and feedback to our team at The Legacy. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

Fantastic track!
Course was in amazing shape and is always an amazing day for the price. Grounds team is doing a great job maintaining this gorgeous piece of land. So much so that I’m looking to buy a house nearby

Great course
Great layout
Played on Monday in 4 hours
They need to put drinking water on the course. No cart girl on Monday. Almost didn’t make it to 18.
Thank you for your review. We will pass along your feedback to our team at The Legacy. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Fun Round
The course was in great shape as usual. There were some tough pin placements. Is this the U.S. Open ? Lol. My only complaint was the mosquitoes were literally chasing us away from holes 15-17. I think some kind of device to circulate the water in the ponds is needed. The 3 strangers I was grouped with were a pleasure to play with. Great course, great group, great round. I’ll definitely be back

Best layout around
The Legacy is a fantastic course with the best layout around.
5 sets of tee boxes
Zoysia fairways, but not playing like it right now. Mattet down and not sitting up like normal, but still good.
Bent grass green that roll pretty true and quick.
An absolute must play!!

Always in great shape
Challenging course but still not too difficult for average players. It had been a few years since I played there but I returned bc the layout and it was in great shape...I was not disappointed! The twilight deal is awesome and on a beautiful Tuesday late afternoon the pace of play was great ...no waiting

Great Course, Playing Well
Legacy is a great course and has some tough holes that will challenge any golfer. Greens were in really good shape, fairways were good, teeboxes a little dry and hard to get a tee into sometimes but thats the worst you put up with here. Pace was good, it is usually not stacked up. Worth the money and drive from Nashville.
Thanks so much for the great review. We look forward to welcoming you back to our course soon. Thanks for choosing The Legacy!
Firsty
This was my son and I’s first time on Legacy. The layout was great fun. Inclines, declines, doglegs right and left. We throughly enjoyed the challenges. It was a great outing for us. We will cone back. Thank you.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you and your son had an incredible time, and we hope to see you both again soon! Thanks for choosing The Legacy.
Challenging course
This is a very nice public course that is very challenging to the average golfer. The pin positions were very tight.

Money well spent
Tee boxes, fairways and greens were in great shape. The course offers some challenging holes and you need to keep the ball in play. The Bermuda rough was hard to hit from, which is normal..The large greens rolled the perfect speed in my opinion. Looking forward to playing again.
Thanks so much for the great review. We look forward to welcoming you back to our course soon. Thanks for choosing The Legacy!
