Saturday Travel Feature
Las Vegas, Nevada
Hearts, Clubs, Diamonds, and Spades of Golf

"Golf in Las Vegas, here is your best bet! Designed by acclaimed golf course architect Arthur Hills, The Legacy Golf Club is an 18-hole, desert jewel highlighted by manicured playing conditions, multi-tiered fairways and large undulating greens.



"Stretching 7,233 yards from the professional tees, this memorable layout is a strong challenge for the scratch player, yet also accommodates the novice with well-spaced tee boxes and generous landing areas. And speaking of tee boxes, the 10th hole at The Legacy may be the most recognizable in all of Las Vegas.


"Each tee box is in the shape of playing cards suits: Hearts, Diamonds, Clubs and Spades. Also notorious at this premier facility, is the "Devil's Triangle." Holes 11, 12, and 13 make for a devilish trio of exciting challenges. The Legacy has become synonymous in Las Vegas for providing country club-style services and amenities. In fact, The Legacy Golf Club was selected as one of the "Top 10 Courses You Can Play" in Nevada, by Golf Digest.


"A visit to the Legacy Golf Club Restaurant will complete your golfing experience. The Restaurant offers a wide variety of specialty and deli sandwiches, as well as made-from-scratch soups and daily specials. For those who crave a more local flavor, guests can choose from several Southwestern Culinary Classics.



"The Legacy Golf Club Restaurant is open daily for breakfast and lunch and offers a comfortable atmosphere complete with a panoramic view of the golf course. Enjoy a spectacular Sunrise Mountain view while relaxing indoors or from our outdoor covered patio." (Link.)
