In the world of golf, legendary courses begin with a strategic design that enhances the game, yet transcends it.  In the words of famed golf course architect, Robert Trent Jones, Jr., “this truly special course is a place of the earth, for the spirit.” It is in that spirit that Jones has created the Legacy Courses at Cragun's. The Legacy Complex has two championship 18-hole courses (Bobby’s & Dutch’s) as well as a reversible 9-hole course that’s ideal for young and old alike.

Babe's Comments:

Gull Lake is one of my favorite lakes to fish, and it’s right in my back yard! Bass tournaments on Gull continuously produce 4 pound averages on bass.

The pike fishing can be tough, but every year Gull gives up several 20-pound fish. The best time to find them is during autumn and winter.

Walleye fishing is spectacular. You can catch them year-round in a variety of different ways. The fall feeding run is the best time to find that trophy you are looking for. Ice fishing is very consistent throughout the hard-water period.

Crappies can be found throughout the year. The spawning season at the beginning of May is a great time. But don't be afraid to search out the slabs in the summer and fall. Ice fishing for crappies can be outstanding, even though they are harder to find during winter. But when you do, you run into some lunkers.

The Legacy is my home course and is one of the most beautiful golf courses I’ve ever played. Every hole is a work of art and provides its own unique set of challenges and rewards. If you poke around in the woods, you might find a ball or two with my name on it. I hope it brings you more luck than it brought me. After your round, make sure to have an amazing meal at the stately clubhouse. I promise, you’ll absolutely love The Legacy!
