Course Highlights
The Players Club at Foxfire earns high praise for its outstanding course layout, featuring challenging bent grass fairways, well-undulated greens, and strategically placed bunkers. Friendly staff and strong value make this a top choice among central Ohio public courses.

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.

Good and bad

Some really neat holes on the front, especially around water.

Unfortunately the bunkers were in terrible shape, there were no water jugs on the course, and there were two dumb back to back par 5s with overhanging branches-- even in the fairway trees were an issue.

Great fairways and greens.

The greens and fairways were in excellent conditions. The course also has a wonderful and challenging layout. One complaint is that there are no ball cleaners thru out the course. Some of the hole signs were missing. I believe it should not be like this for the $45 it cost me to play the course. The staff was friendly at this visit but have been kind of rude during other visits to the fox fire course.

Good value

I played in early March, so the course wasn't up to its normal standard, but that's expected this time of year. Considering the harsh winter, the course was in good shape.

This course is always one of my favorites -- fair but challenging, requires you to think your way around the course, and accessible to good scores if you play well. Friendly staff, too. I've always enjoyed this course.

Cold and Challenging

Overall, we had a good time. We played during the off-season, since my buddy was in town from out of town so it was on the cold side (about 45 degrees) and if you went off of the fairway, it could be hard to find your ball with the leaves. Since, it was the off-season, we had the course to ourselves. The majority of the sand traps were unplayable, which is par for the course in November. The course is certainly on the challenging side, so birdies and pars were hard to come by. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone looking for a challenge.

Good fun course and very challenging.

Course was in really good condition for this time of year. Lots of water on the front nine and many narrow holes on the back making good drive placement a must. Really liked the course.

Great course

Beautiful course. Made me cry. 14, 15 & 16 you need to walk single file up the fairway. Haven't played in a while. Will definitely be back when I can afford another 2 dozen golf balls.

Fun Layout to Play!!!

I have always enjoyed the challenge at the Players Club. The day before we got an 1" of rain. that made the bunkers washed out and cart path only. The greens were good, however a little slow. Overall the course needs a little TLC!

Not like I remembered...

I don't know why this is new trend, but it seems like maintaining the bunkers is a thing of the past, even at the upper tier courses. To be fair to this course, I did play it the day after heavy rainfall, and there was a lot of standing water in the bunkers, but it sure seemed to me that the bunkers hadn't been attended to for quite some time. I've played many different courses this season, and most are neglecting the bunkers. I don't know if this is a money saving issue or what, but it's frustrating at the least. Cart path only was also annoying, but I guess I understand that one because of the rain the day before

What the heck happened? Dog track!

This course has some great holes and has a decent level of difficultly but the course conditions are deplorable! From burnt out fairways and greens to chewed up uneven tee boxes. The staff is not that welcoming and the carts were filthy had not been hosed off In several rounds in my I play a lot of golf and played a lot of tracks this year but foxfire the players club is easily in the worst condition off any course I have played this year I know one player that will care not to join the club! Please do not waste your money!

A couple good holes

Played the course a couple years ago the course was in great shape, now the course needs a lot of help. There are a lot of courses around that are cheaper that are in much better shape.

Not good conditions. Lot of ball marks. Rough is not rough, it is weeds. No ranger to maintain pace. Halfway house does not take credit cards.

the course has some tough but fun holes

The course is a good challenge for anyone who enjoys the game of golf. If your not hitting the driver very well leave it in the bag on some of the holes. Holes 14 15 & 16 r holes u have to hit it straight off the tee. Those 3 holes are a wonderful challenge. I would recommend this course to anyone out there. If you read this sign up to play the Players Club course at Foxfire and enjoy a great round of golf.

Multiple risk-reward decisions makes this course fun.

Fairways in great shape. Well-kept, undulating greens that reward good shots and challenges poor shots. Un-repaired ball marks reflect on the golfers rather than the grounds crew. Traps had standing water from recent rains, but that was expected.
