Nationally acclaimed golf course architect Arthur Hills has completed a desert masterpiece in the Legacy Golf Club of Las Vegas, with rugged lava rock gatherings, multiple tier fairways, and large undulating greens. This well-bunkered links style layout is spread out over natural desert terrain, and features some of the most interesting holes in the valley.

On the Legacy, golfers will find superb conditioning on a track that consistently features spectacular mountain backdrops and plentiful desert barrancas, as it winds its way through an upscale residential community.

Golfers of all skill levels can enjoy a round here, as four sets of tees provide ample choices in yardage and difficulty. The professional tees measure a whopping 7233 yards with a 135 slope rating. The champion tee boxes play to 6744/128 slope, and the average golfer will enjoy the resort tees at 6211/118 slope. Forward players will find only one par four that measures over 352 yards from the Players tee boxes – which total 5340 yards. Generous fairways afford ample opportunities to grip it and rip it off most tees, for those addicted to their drivers. There is a nice rhythm to the front nine, with the tough holes interspersed among the more score-able ones. Though shorter than the front, the back nine is a bit more demanding, with tighter fairways and more challenging green complexes.

Highlighted by its contouring, sloping fairways, and slick, undulating greens, The Legacy Golf Club is one of Las Vegas' most talked about golf courses. Lauded for its design and playing conditions, the par-72, 7,233-yard course was voted the best course in Nevada by the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the No. 1 public golf course in Las Vegas by the Las Vegas Business Press and one of the top 10 courses in Nevada by Golf Digest.
