The Legacy at Lakewood Ranch Golf & Country Club (as it is now known) was until recently a popular and well-rated public-access golf course. As of 2024 it has become a private facility, joining the three private Lakewood Ranch courses that sit above The Legacy to the north and west.
Two of Lakewood Ranch's private courses, Cypress Links and King's Dunes, were also designed by Arnold Palmer. The other, Royal Lakes, is a Rick Robbins design.
Limited access: this private facility and its four private 18-hole courses are generally playable only by members and their invited guests.
Private club; guests may only play if hosted by a member.
