3/30/2012 - Great course try it you will like it. Posted by Frank (Grasonville, MD)
3/29/2012 - Really enjoyed this course. Will probably play this one again when we return next year. Posted by T from Kentucky (St. John'S, NL CANADA)
3/9/2012 - Treated us like real guests. The staff was very friendly, changed our tee time so that we could play as a couple without being paired up. The course was lovely. Look forward to playing that course again. Posted by Laura (St. John'S, NL CANADA)
1/29/2012 - Very nice track for January. Greens were very fast and rolled true. All the personnel were very friendly. It was nice to have free range balls. Need to bring your own GPS device, need it to help out with hazards. Posted by Mike (Potomac, MD)
12/4/2011 - Group of 8 from the Ottawa region who year after year come to the Sarasota area and never miss playing this excellent course. Always a pleasure and most certainly recommended for those looking for a stop in that area. Posted by Allan (Gatineau, QC CANADA)
12/2/2011 - Always enjoy playing this course
Has great character and excellent staff. Posted by Henry (Warwick, PA)
11/18/2011 - Nice course. Well kept,interesting and playable. Pro shop staff very helpful. Only complaint is that they should have had a ranger out to speed up slow players in front of us. Posted by Bill (Simsbury, CT)
10/11/2011 - beautiful course. Excellent time Posted by Barry (St Johns, NL CANADA)
9/1/2011 - Very nice course, excellent condition, interesting holes with choice of strategy. Five sets of tees to accommodate players of all levels. Best feature, at least in August, was a small ice chest on the cart so your water bottle stays ice cold the whole round, much more useful than GPS since I have a rangefinder. Posted by Ned (Newton, MA)
6/3/2011 - We really enjoyed this course it was very different from the courses we are use to playing. We would come and play again. Posted by Grace (Hudson, FL)
4/22/2011 - by far the best course. The greens are good, great pratice areas. Bring lots balls there is a few nasty water holes. If it is windy, add 2 clubs. Posted by John (Georgetown, ON CANADA)

2/2/2010 - This course is incredible and the service and staff were second to none. Legacy is one of those courses that you'll always remember for its beauty, challenge and pristine condition. I have a 10 handicap and have played some nice courses in Pennsylvania, i.e. Nemacolin Woodlands, Olde Stonewall, Pittsburgh Field Club. I highly recommend this course to anyone venturing down to the Sarasota area...you will not be disappointed. Posted by Steve (Cranberry Twp, PA)

4/20/2009 - The Legacy GC provided us with a wonderful golfing experience from the moment of arrival to departure. The club is beautiful and the course has a few signature holes that my friends and I are still talking about. Even though we did not play our best golf we felt good about being at the course. All the water and wildlife added to the pleasure of playing the course. We spent time in the club house after the round and talked with the foursome that was ahead of us. It was good to hear that we were not the only ones having problems that day. The Legacy is a true and fair test of golfing skills. We look forward to playing it again in the near future. Posted by Horace (Shelby Twp, MI)
3/26/2009 - Legacy is a great layout. The course was in excellent condition with nice greens. Always a must play. Posted by MCL
3/20/2009 - This was a great course. It was worth the price. Watch out for the gator on island par 3 17th. It had my playing partner's ball in its mouth when we arrived at the hole. Posted by Bob (Columbia, MD)
3/20/2009 - Legacy was our favorite of the five courses we played!!! It was in great condition despite the dry weather... We will play there twice next year as it continues to be a great value and experience. Posted by Jon (Elgin, IL)
3/20/2009 - Legacy had a good, challenging layout in excellent condition. We played some beautiful and very memorable golf holes. Posted by Jerry (Pittsburgh, PA)

3/5/2009 - This was the nicest course we've played in the Tampa area over a two year period. It ranks with Waterlefe as a must-play course. Posted by John (Columbia, MD)
2/27/2009 - Beautiful, but tough, course. Posted by Stephen.
2/26/2009 - Very good course condition. Greens were challenging and in very good condition. Well laid out course, that I would recommend to above average players. 10 handicap player. Posted by John (Oakville, ON)
2/25/2009 - First time we selected this course to play during our annual winter trip to Florida. Staff was friendly and informative about the course and what to expect.

1/29/2009 - Course was beautiful, very well maintained. Weather could've been a tad bit warmer, but the round was very enjoyable. Very helpful staff in the clubhouse - allowed us to go out early seeing as how they weren't that busy. Posted by Janice (Waupun, WI).

7/14/2008 - Great course, great staff. Posted by Ray (New City, NY).
5/29/2008 - Super course, great layout...quite a challenge, lots of water and sand. 1st timers need a yardage book or something to show some of the trouble areas...not always obvious. Hard course, but fair. Inset in an upscale housing development...beautiful homes and scenery. Posted by David (Flatwoods, KY).
5/13/2008 - Very nice. Posted by Dan (Louisville, KY).

3/6/2008 - A very difficult but challenging golf course. Accuracy is priority. Too much course for the high handicapper. Very nice practice range. Posted by Mike (Dartmouth, Canada).
3/6/2008 - Nice course! Great conditioning and layout. Staff was very attentive. Posted by Nelson (St Catharines, Canada).
2/28/2008 - What a great course!!!! Tremendous conditions with the overseeding. Great views with water all over. Try to stay under 25 for the first five tough holes. Good luck! Posted by Kurt (Collingswood, NJ).
11/16/07 - Always enjoy this course! Posted by Denis (Canada).
11/15/07 - Excellent golf course in good shape. This is an incredible deal for a course of this quality. First class from the moment you arrive. Posted by Mark (Canada).
11/15/07 & 11/19/07 - Played twice and totally enjoyed the experience. Beautiful course and well maintained. Fits our needs. We had 12 golfers with handicaps from 8 to 30. Posted by Henry (Warminster, PA).
10/19/07 - Have played this course before and as always found it to be an excellent test of golf. Par 5s leave the lower handicap golfer with the chance to get home in 2, while most of the par 3s are well guarded by water. All in all a great course in great condition. Posted by Damian (Armagh, Ireland)
10/18/07 - Excellent course. Always play here when we vacation. The staff is first class and the golf course is very challenging and very beautiful. Posted by Karen (Chesterfield, MI).
