The Players Club at Foxfire Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Foxfire Golf Club boasts 36 holes of championship golf, the Foxfire Course and the Players Club Course. The Players Club was added in 1993.The layout is a deft combination of traditional American golf and traditional British links design that provides the perfect complement to the original. The golf course is the more challenging of the two, but not by much. The layout features narrow fairways lined with trees and water hazards on eight holes. There are three particularly tricky carries over water. Strategically placed bunkers and contoured mounding also treacherously lurk by the greensides. The par-4 16th hole is the course's signature. This demanding hole plays uphill through trees to a green that is guarded by five bunkers. The most memorable hole though, might be the par-5 eighth, which features the longest sand bunker in the Midwest.

Still needs work
Been playing here for years and am still disappointed. Early season yes, but greens are in bad shape with ball marks, no rangers on course to maintain pace, no amenities to speak of, no sand in the bunkers - anywhere. Grass over growing bunkers, carts stored uncovered and dirty and moldy - at least make an effort.... Even the “new” carts are a mess already. I recall the first few years the Players Club was open, it was spectacular and worthy of play, now it just feels like another muni waiting to be bought for condos.
Still needs more work
Even after the Foxfire course was sold off to build homes, there hasn’t been much done to improve the Players Club course. I’ll grant that it is still very early in the season and Covid had a large impact on 2020 but carts still are stored uncovered, are generally dirty, and rain covers are moldy. Greens still are rough because of ball marks and fairway bunkers have no sand in them. Hoping for better conditions as the weather improves but skeptically optimistic about where it will go this season.
enjoyed our round
First time playing FF and we enjoyed the round... Admittedly, it was very early in the season, so the course was still recovering from winter. The staff treated us warmly and I can see coming back after the season has matured and they've had a chance to work on the course.
Great Course Condition for December Golf
The best course layout across all public options in the greater Columbus area. Each hole is unique bringing its own fun challenges requiring you to develop a strategy before your tee shot. Course was in great condition for an abnormally warm day in mid-December. Easily one of the best public courses in Columbus area.
December to Remember
64 degrees in December on a sunny day with a nice pace of play and a cold beer in hand. I love this course
Yikes!
Did not get to play because there seemed to be a total disregard for tee times. There were 8 carts full of golfers ahead of us on the 1st tee when we reported for our 1:26 tee time. Complete waist of our 40 minute drive from Powell. Staff was very pleasant but no feel
for how to manage the pace of place. will not ever go back.
Overbook. Terribly slow
They overbook the course and this is not the first time I have heard this happening. Walked up to the 1st tee box for our tee time and there were 6 groups ahead of us waiting. Ranger/starter was rude and did not go check on the course to see if anything was slowing things down. Play was ridiculously slow.
Poor conditions
This used to be one of my favorite courses to play over the last 20 years but now course is very rundown. Greens/fairways/tee boxes in very poor shape. They should be ashamed of themselves for charging $42 to play. Not worth paying $15. Do not play here
Sad. Very Sad.
This used to be the NICEST course in all of central Ohio. Now just an absolute dump. This course is 38.95 too much. They should pay you to come down and play. If your buddies ask you to play. . ..RUN!!!! The back 9 is SOOOOO bad that I would of rather played the front twice. Now. . . .give them 3 years (after selling Foxfire)
I'll see you in a few years.
Sad shape of what once was a very good course
Hopefully as the housing project that took over the front course is completed, the Players course can get back to what once was a well maintained challenge as it was years ago. Until I see much improved reviews on a consistent basis, I will not be back as current condition makes one wonder if watering is illegal in that county...very sad.
Bad conditions
This course has always been one of the best in central Ohio but they are tearing up the old course for housing and I think the water has been shut off. I have never seen it in this condition. All of the fairways and greens with a couple exceptions were burnt up. I don’t think they have had water in a long time.iThey are still charging full price and I will not be back until I hear it has recovered
Golf course was in horrible shape for paying $47. They have not been able to water the course due to water line damage. Fairways literally cracking. Tee boxes , fairways and greens were as hard as concrete.. The fact that we were charged $47 with no advance warning of conditions was really disappointing.
1st Time Playing
Excellent golf course. Beautiful layout. Back side needs work. Trees are over hanging in the fairway on hole 14. Doesn’t matter where you hit your tee shot. Your behind a tree. Course needed some manscaping it was very long. Fairways and greens. Bunkers are crap. Overall 4 stars. Solid Columbus course
