About
Fox Hollow Golf Course in Somerville sprawls across acres of rolling woodlands, offering dramatic elevation changes throughout the par-70 layout. Designed by local designer Hal Purdy, the abundant trees and hilly terrain have been deftly incorporated into the course. Originally built in 1967, the golf course was completely redesigned in 2000 to make it more challenging while at the same time improving its playability. Since its renovation, it has garnered a local following but it is still one of the better kept secrets of Somerset County, making it likely that golfers will be able to play the golf course regardless of the day or time. In addition to the course, there is also a practice facility with a grass driving range, a bunkered practice green, and an expansive putting green. One reason Fox Hollow G.C. is a popular choice, besides the enjoyable layout, is the affordability it offers.

Fox Hollow
Nice course, challenging yet fair, friendly staff who were very flexible as we were running late for our t-time. Enjoyed our round, cart girl was nice, and ranger too
Great Course and Layout
Terrible pace over 5hr+. Should not be a 8 minute tee time. Everything else was excellent.
Tricky greens
I’ve played her numerous times and the thing that stands out the most are the tricky greens.
Some of them are on the small side and most have undulations. Being a good putter is critical on this course.
Some of the fairways are sloped also which leave you with lies where the ball is above or below your feet.
The course is well maintained.
It’s a little pricy to play here but well worth it if you’re looking for a challenge.
I wouldn’t recommend this course to a beginner but if you’re an experienced golfer it’s worth trying.
Solid
First time at Fox hollow in a couple of years.
As expected.
Course is in good shape, elevations make for some spectacular views
Great course
We have played here 5 or 6 times in the last two years. Always in great shape. The ranger met us on the third green and escorted us to the fifth tee because the foursome in front of us was so slow. We played the fourth hole after we finished 18. Very pro-active staff.
Fox Hollow
Always enjoy playing here. Course is always in great condition, staff is very friendly.
Well worth it
Staff very friendly. Course in excellent shape. Keeps you honest
Pace was pretty slow.
They were crowded Saturday. Unfortunately the group in front of us had a short hitter playing the tips and the group in front of them had a beginner that seemed pretty inconsiderate and kept picking up balls he found on course. Once was a ball I drove over a the corner of the fairway onto the car path. Twice he took a ball from one of my friends in our group.
All this was going on with no sign of a ranger, by hole 15 I was informed apparently the Ranger decided to hop on the course and was busy playing a round. Hope that wasn’t true hahaha.
It was a little over 5hrs to finish 18, fairways were fast and driver friendly, but the greens were hard, fast, and the pins were placed in the hardest positions possible. Bravo to the maintenance team!
Beauty and the beast
This course was in great condition. If only my golf game was too. Difficult course but if you can take it the bull by the horns its a fun course
