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.

A Very Enjoyable Round!

I love Foxfire. The course layout is great. I enjoy not seeing the clubhouse except leaving on 1 and ending on 18.

The turn house is great! I HIGHLY recommend the chicken salad!

Very reasonably priced in my opinion and the staff is fantastic!

Terrific Course

Course was in great condition for early in the season. Although it’s arguably one of the most challenging courses in Columbus, it’s the best bang for your buck. I would recommend to anyone who’s looking for a tough course with great views, it’s always a great time.

Slow slow slow

Had a tee time around 3:30.. didn’t get off till 3:46 but that’s not too bad. The problem was the pace and the amount of groups they tried to cram into the day. At one point there were 4 groups on the tee box of 13 waiting. No Ranger in sight! The only other thing is the cart paths are terrible! Extremely rough. The cost is fine but it was 7:30 and I still had 3 holes to play with 2 groups on the tee box for the remaining holes. I just left because it would have been dark when I finished. That just ruins the experience for me. The greens were unfairly fast.( Probably a 13 on stemp meter)The staff really didn’t say much so I gave that an average rating but the pace of play will keep me away. There should have been someone keeping people moving.

Great course, but…..

This course is amazing and in GREAT shape! The only problem is the cart path! Bring your neck brace, shock absorber, seat belt and stadium cushion!! The cart paths are TERRIBLE!! Safer to stay on the grass!

No Rental clubs

Called the day before, asked if they had rental clubs, they said yes, they had 4 sets. Called the morning of to double check, they said they don’t have any rental sets.

Coming from out of town this was a huge letdown

It’s Worth it

It’s October, the course isn’t going to be peak conditions but it’s a fun course with more interesting holes that any other course for less.

If you play, bring extra balls, prepare for lots of putting, and get food at the turn because they have great stuff.

Cart paths need to be repaved, but that’s the only downside

In terrible shape

Avoid this course. There has been a drought, but the greens are too firm. They need to do a lot of work to soften them. The grass is incredibly short so a few putt like glass. There isn’t enough friction to stop a ball no matter how well you spin it. Overall this makes for a poor experience.

Great layout!

Loved the course layout and it is a very challenging yet fair course design. Greens rolled great and fairways very nice, missed fairways or greens left a lot of hardpan lies and the traps had poor sand. Overall an awesome course to play and I would play again.

Foxfire

Course has a nice routing and some very good holes. Several challenging with elevation changes. It has been hot in central ohio so the conditions of the course were influenced by the lack of rain. Greens were very fast and have a lot of undulation, so were challenging on most holes. Overall, fun course to play but conditions could be better.

Good track with fast greens

I hadn't played TPC at Foxfire in nearly 20 years and I was pleasantly reminded by how fun this course is. Despite every superintendent in central Ohio pleading for rain all summer, Foxfire was actually in pretty good shape. The greens were the fastest I've played in the last 5 years. I've gotten used to playing primarily public courses and generally slower greens, but I would assume that the greens here were rolling somewhere near 11-12. Definitely recommend this course to the average or better golfer and will definitely be back again in the near future

Excellent course

From talking to Barb on the phone ( ok the one fault is she is a buckeye fan) to arriving at course , grabbing a quick lunch and then heading out , it was just an awesome experience. Course was very good , staff was extremely friendly , and I thoroughly enjoyed playing a round here. Definitely a course I would recommend to play and if I know anyone going to Columbus, I would encourage them to drive out to Foxfire ! I am glad I went to play it .
