The Legacy at Colonial is a roughly $400 million, 170-acre mixed-use development built on the former North Course footprint of Colonial Country Club in Cordova, Tennessee, at the I-40/Highway 64 interchange. It broke ground in December 2022 (news coverage of the groundbreaking and related tax-incentive approvals also refers to the project as 'The Legacy at Countrywood'). The residential portion includes roughly 541 planned single-family lots, alongside a 302-unit senior-living campus and about 300 multifamily units, plus 40,000 square feet of retail/restaurant space and a 130-room hotel.
Golf Access
Does buying a home here include club membership?
Colonial Country Club membership is available to Legacy at Colonial residents on an opt-in basis, per local news coverage ('residents have the option to join'). This research pass found no evidence that membership is bundled, deeded, or required for any home in the development -- treat it as a separately purchased amenity.
Living in The Legacy at Colonial
The development sits immediately beside Colonial Country Club's remaining South Course and clubhouse. Local news coverage describes residents as having the option to join Colonial Country Club, with access to its renovated golf course, pool, tennis courts, clubhouse and fitness facility -- framed as an opt-in amenity rather than something included with a home purchase.
Lifestyle & Amenities
Beyond optional club access, the development's mixed-use design brings retail, restaurants and a hotel within a short walk or golf-cart ride of the residential sections, a different lifestyle proposition than a purely residential golf-course subdivision.
Location & Surrounding Area
The Legacy at Colonial sits in Cordova at the I-40 and Highway 64 interchange, on Memphis's eastern edge.

What Buyers Should Verify
- Confirm current home prices, HOA fees, and construction/completion status for the single-family, multifamily and senior-living sections directly with the developer.
- Confirm precisely whether Colonial Country Club membership is included, discounted, or simply available at standard pricing for Legacy at Colonial residents.
- Confirm whether 'The Legacy at Colonial' and 'The Legacy at Countrywood' are formally the same project or represent distinct phases/rebranding.
Notable
- The development is built on the former footprint of Colonial Country Club's historic North Course, which was closed to make way for the project.
- Memphis news coverage of the project's December 2022 groundbreaking and EDGE tax-incentive approval refers to it as 'The Legacy at Countrywood,' while the development's own current marketing uses 'The Legacy at Colonial' -- both names appear to refer to the same project.
