1. The Legacy Golf Course
City: Springfield, TN
Category: Golf
Telephone: (615) 384-4653
Address: 100 Raymond Floyd Dr.
Description: This par 72 course, designed by PGA veteran Raymond Floyd, opened on Memorial Day 1996. But it looks a lot older. That’s because Floyd designed the 6,755-yard Legacy—which is marked by undulating greens and water on 4 of the 18 holes—around a collection of mature trees. Fees are $25 weekdays, $47 weekends. The Legacy has a driving range, a snack bar, and a pro shop, and lessons are available.
