Rating 74.0

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.

I forgot about this gem.

Course was in great condition. The bunkers had a mix of fine dirt and clay sand. Greens were fantastic. I wish I played this course more. Holes 14, 15, & 16 are some of the hardest holes in Central Ohio!

Difficult, narrow, challenge

This was my 3rd time visiting family on the south side of Columbus and playing the Player's Club while doing so. The course was in good condition. Fairways were cut low, rough was grown in nicely, and the greens were rolling very quickly. If you want a narrow challenge, 14,15,16 will be all you can handle. 20 yard wide back to back par 5's with hanging trees making it more narrow and then a massive uphill long narrow par 4. Good luck. Score well early in the round and take your medicine on the tougher holes. Stay below the hole or putts will be brutal and almost nonmakeable. Carts are gas and slightly older, cart paths need repaved in many spots along the course but playing conditions were good.

Superb greens!

I would've given this course 5 stars, but the bunkers didn't have sand, they had very fine dirt mixed with clay based sand....not very good to hit out of. Course is awesome though. Back 9 is difficult which slowrd the pace of play.

Nice Course

This is a nice course. Was extremely crowded but pace of play was overall good and only had to wait a few holes. Huge back up on 9 and not really sure why? Could of been players stopping at the Half Way House. Back 9 ihas longer holes which made for a chaaleenge time. Enjoyed playing there and would recommend to others.

Players Club May 17 2015

Always enjoy playing at Players Club at Foxfire, well established great layout. Holes#'s14 through 16, I believe are the three toughest holes strung together anywhere.
Had to keep carts on path because unfortunately very wet in spots from recent rains, especially the sand traps and parts of the cart path were ponded over. Still got done in under four hours.

Awesome course

This course is awesome. Fairways are like carpet and greens are smooth. Beginner golfers need to take a couple dozen balls with them if they're going to play this course because it's challenging and there's a lot of water. I got paired with a couple guys that weren't beginners and they were both out of balls by #16. Pace of play was a little slow as it is with most courses on a Saturday. This course is normally 50$ for 18 and cart on weekends and it's worth it to serious golfers that want to play a quality course, so anytime there's a hot deal on golfnow for 30$ or less you have to go play it. The Foxfire course at the same location is pretty nice also and much cheaper, it's more suited for beginner level golfers.

Course has potential

A fun layout. Requires a lot of different shots in the bag. Unfortunately, when I played, the course lacked water; the greens were extremely hard and didn't hold too many shots. Overall though, $33 for 18 with a cart was good value.

Good course

Good course that's enjoyable to play. Very nice layout. Lots of water. Worst bunkers I've ever played in. No sand, huge rocks and packed dirt basically. Only negative is the bunkers.

Not happy

I hardly ever write any reviews of any type and when I do they are positive. Unfortunately not this time. The Players used to be a very pristine course. I was very disappointed at the conditions so I felt compelled to write this. I used to play this course years ago and it was a lot nicer. The tee boxes were in bad shape, the sand traps had hardly any sand in them. Weeds all over. I will not be back. The guy I played with felt the same. For the weather this year every course I have played has been fantastic. I don't know what has happened to this place. In closing there is a sign when you pull in that list it as 4 1/2 starts from Golf Digest. That must be very old and I think they would be disappointed if they saw it now! Sorry, but I wanted to be honest. Thank you for this opportunity.

Dog Track

I played here last year for the first time and it was absolutely beautiful. This time around, not so much.

Greens are like trampolines. If you want to stick it close, you have to hit before the green.

I lost 4 balls in the rough that landed just off the fairway because no one cares to take care of mowing the grass.

I felt like I needed to shower after attempting to play a ball out of the "sand trap" which had plants growing in them and was about the consistency of mud.

Overall a horrible course. I would rather play shamrock or Phoenix than this course. I highly recommend against playing here ever.

Course was in bad shape

I have played this course about a dozen times over the past 10 years and it has gone from a well kept course and great layout to a weed pasture. Dandelions all over, no sand in the bunkers, holes had not been moved in sometime as the cups were coming out when you would remove flagstick. I was very disappointed as this used to be a great track.

First 18 of the year

Course was in average shape. Greens were definitely decent and very playable. Fairways and rough hadn't been mowed that morning, so was a bit disappointed. I've definitely seen the course in better condition. Tee boxes are horrific! Need to be reseeded and repaired.

Overall the course was in great shape except for the bunkers which were in terrible condition. Bunkers were not raked, hard, and full of rocks. I hope they get the bunker situation taken care of soon because this course is normally in fantastic shape.
