REVIEWS OF The Legacy Golf Club IN Iowa

Claire Stork

We were staying at the resort so we played here a couple times (North Course). The course is in good shape and very well maintained. The range is top notch. It is one of those places with 2 courses so the members play one and the resort guests and daily fee people play the other on alternate days. There is just something about the place that makes one feel like one is subsidizing the club for the members but is a second class citizen. It is just a feeling and shouldn't stop you from playing a great track.

I played the Legacy Golf Club as part of an outing with 20 players in an outing that we have been participating in for the past 16 years with guys from 6 different states. It was a great opportunity to play a course designed by Jeffrey D Brauer, who designed Colbert Hills in Manhattan KS and Champions Run in Omaha. The course was in fantastic condition and it was great to work with Trevis Manning on setting up the event. Trevis and I had a great discussion after the event to review ideas.

I've been playing there since they opened in 2002. Well run golf course, from clubhouse management and events to their sand in the bunkers. I would recommend anyone coming to the Des Moines area to play golf here. You won't be disappointed.

Amazing course for good price

Might be the nicest public course in central iowa. It is a scenic course with bent grass and 1st class GPS in all the carts.

We played Tuesday and the three JD tractors with gang mowers followed us through most of the holes!!! It was like playing with a million killer bees buzzing!!! I thought if they mowed the course backwards then at least they might pass you once or twice but they went 1 - 18!! Then on 17 past the mowers a guy starts string trimming next to the green while we were putting. I guess you don't have to have golf etiquette if you own the course or maintain it.

I've played this course multiple times since it was built and if you want to take 5-6 hours to play a round of golf then this course might not be for you. The Legacy staff is very accommodating and polite to deal with. They pride themselves on making sure everyone who plays their golf course has a good experience. Pace of play is stressed to everyone who tees off and I think experienced golfers will appreciate that. Unfortunately the review by Juan is the reason why golf takes 5-6 hours to play for the all the golfers waiting behind Juan. On a nice Friday, there are typically 64 other golfers on the course. I've played my share of 6 hour rounds and nothing is more frustrating than seeing a one or two hole gap between groups playing in front of us. I would hope the ranger is asking the slow groups to speed up their play. If you want to play on one of the nicest public golf courses in the Des Moines area then this is the place for you. The staff will treat you right.

I hesitate writing this review, because for whatever reason, a lot of people in the Des Moines metro don't even seem to know this course exists. The Legacy is quite possibly my favorite course to play in the area, as it's always in incredible shape and is very well designed. Only downside would be slight frustration with the golf cart GPS that will shut off the cart if you enter an area deemed "off-limits". The issue with that is that you don't really know what is "off-limits" until your cart stops and you are forced to put it in reverse in an attempt to get back in the cart's good graces. These areas are not as intuitive as one might think..so you'll be looking for your ball and the cart will just start beeping and stop. I've played the course enough times to know where these areas are now, but I know the first couple times, I was frustrated with that. It would be helpful if the "off-limit" areas were marked on the cart GPS map. Again, that is a very minor issue. The course is absolutely one of the best in the entire state, and I'd argue the nicest public course anywhere near the Des Moines metro.

Great course in the Des Moines area. It is forgiving off the tee but challenges on the 2nd shot. You will use alot of the clubs in your bag and the greens can be tough if you put the ball in the wrong place. Lots of elevation changes and scenic shots. Its a great course for the money and the owners & employees are some of the nicest around. Its a course I could play on a weekly basis and I do! I have played the best in the world and would rank this a solid 4.2 out of 5.

Had a great round of golf here (great experience, not necessarily great score). The fairways and greens were in great shape. Fairways are nicely groomed and wide. The greens are very challenging! The course fees were very reasonable. I thought about walking the round, but the front 9 has such long stretches between holes, I'm glad we rode in electric cart. The back 9 would be easily walk-able, though. Carts have very good interactive GPS features, also. I'd like to play again, if I'm in the area.

From Kansas City. My wife and I travel the state for work and our clubs are always with us. Iowa has a plethora of amazing golf courses, and this one ranks right up there. Fantastic course, bravo

Terry Glasgow

Note to Jack- Unfortunaely, I don't see it your way either. Groups were held up and others enjoyment greatly affected while you and your buddies played the role of " we paid a lot of money and are entitled." The Legacy has always been a great experience with the attitude everyone matters. Thought it amusing it was all about how much money your group spent. There is always some business just " not worth it" . Not sure you will be missed.

Just a great day of golf

This past weekend I had the worst experience ever on a golf course! My buddies and I have met up for the past 3 years in Des Moines for an annual golf trip. We are located all across the country Texas, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, North Carolina to mention a few. We played the legacy a couple of years ago and loved it great course and accommodations. The staff and management must of recently changed because this weekend we pretty much got ran off the course and told our money was not good here. We had 2 foursomes and was behind the pace of play on a Friday evening by 20 minutes. The manager of the course sent out one of his staff members and demanded we skip ahead a couple holes because we were bottle necking the course. The group ahead of us was on the green everytime we tee'd off. Ridiculous, we obliged anyway but requested to speak to the manager. He came out to the course guns blazing criticizing us and didn’t once try to reason with us. His direct quote was, " he would rather loose eight golfers then the 50 behind us we were holding up." then he stormed off in his cart. The course is great but the staff is very unprofessional and I will never play this course again to the lack of customer service. FYI.....not a group of slackers. 3 doctors 3 engineers and 2 professional store managers.

Great layout, beautiful piece of property, well maintained!

Very nice course, great day!

As a spectator to the ciml conference tournament, the staff treatment was excellent. Thanks.

Jack Conley

Rude! Horrible!! Greddy! Are words that sum this course up. I will never return to this course. The computer on the golf cart kept bringing at you to hurry up. The owner son kept driving around telling folks to hurry up. We spent over 2400 dollars to be harrassed and never felt welcomed. I suggest foing to.Echo Valley was a much more hospitable place to spend your hard earned dollars.

Will Schwartz

The Legacy staff was very courteous throughout my entire experience at the golf course. During the round there were a few groups in front of us that were behind pace. The ranger then came and told us that they had talked to the groups ahead of us that were slow and asked them to speed up. I have not found this at many other courses that I have played. I like the fact that they are conscious about their pace of play on the course to complete a round in a quick, yet reasonable amount of time.

Paul Oderkirk

Wonderful staff. Great experience for over 10 years. Come play.

Cody Holck

Don Schoen

Great staff, course is one of the best public courses maintained. Tee boxes allow different levels of golfers to enjoy the course. If you like to play fast get to the course earlier in the day or later in the afternoon. This course will challenge all of your shots.

Rob MG

Awesome course, great staff and great price. The Legacy is a great place to play.

Enjoyed a great round of golf, links style course

Josh Damm

Had a great time playing at The Legacy with one big exception. The course was in good shape and I was playing good - shooting a 79 from the gold tees but the kid who was the ranger for the day was clueless. We got a few minutes behind on the first hole when we had to look for a couple balls and ended up being 8 minutes behind pace after the 4th hole. Ranger Rick decided to warn us 3 times about pace of play even though the 2nd and 3rd times the group behind us was nearly a full hole behind us and the group in front of our foursome was a threesome (we were never more than 12 minutes off pace). We finished the Sunday round in 4 hours and 30 minutes on a very windy day and putting out all putts - we left the 18th green as the group behind us got to the 18th tee. Nice course but definitely need to teach your rangers about when to talk to groups and how to be a little friendlier. It tainted our experience. Telling a group on the 14th green "this is your final warning or else you'll have to skip a hole" when the group behind us is still in the fairway of 13 is stupid.

Jans Man

Play this course regularly and it is the best public course in the area. As for others complaining about being warned about slow play, don't play slow and ruin my round. If you can't get it down in four hours don't play because I don't want to be held up by you. Also, don't worry about the group behind you, keep up with the group ahead of you.

Well kept

Jason Pringle

Great course! Fantastic staff. Challenging greens.

Ted Phillips

Nice course. Good challenge. Well kept.

John Goodman

Very nice course. Unnecessary messages to the cart to hurry up when there was no one behind us.

Matt Ulrich

Great course, great staff and great time. I’m from the area and we are blessed with some very good public courses, but for my money Legacy tops the list. Course has a good balance of challenging and fun holes and you can tell that ownership prides itself in presenting the golfer with a quality experience. Course is always in fantastic shape, the golf cart GPS is pretty cool, helpful, fun staff and I can tell by personal experience as well as reading other comments, they care about getting you through your round in a fair amount of time. Thanks everyone at Legacy, I’m looking forward to my next round.

One of the nicer courses in Iowa. It was in great shape today. The greens were smooth and the fairways were well maintained. The carts have GPS to help get around.
