Legend Trail Golf Club
Designed by golf course architect Rees Jones, the Legend Trail Golf Course has two streams of play: the challenging Long Trail measures 6,845 years and the easier Short Trail measures 5,000 yards. The course is known for its wide fairways and TifEagle ultra dwarf greens. Each hole on the course is named after a surrounding feature of the Sonoran Desert. For example, if you look up Legend Trail’s Interactive Course Map, you will see that the course starts at “Nature’s Bounty”, ends halfway at the “Promised Land” and concludes at “Finishing Touch”.
The Legend Trail golf course is very popular among the golfers who play it. According to the Legend Trail website, Golf Digest Magazine gives the course 4.5 out of 5 stars for “Best Places to Play”. The Legend Trail course has also been ranked in the “Top 100 Women-Friendly Fairways” by Golf for Women Magazine. After a great game of golf, golfers can sit back and relax at Legend Trail’s Cantina restaurant which serves Southwestern and Mexican cuisine.
