Located just 30 miles west of Cleveland, FoxCreek Golf and Racquet Club is one of the best golf courses in Lorain County. The layout has a classic design with a shorter length and forgiving fairways. The terrain is hilly, which provides the most challenging elements of the course from the rolling undulations to the elevated tees and greens. You'll encounter numerous doglegs as well as a few blind approaches. The postage stamp-sized greens can be especially tricky. They are faster than they seem and have subtle breaks where you wouldn't expect. From the back tees, the golf course will test even the most seasoned golfer, however, FoxCreek has a nice balance of tough and player-friendly holes with plenty of variety. Your score will depend more on how creatively you utilize your shot making skills rather than on sheer strength or distance.

Unique course

Challenging layout due to extremely small greens, some holes with elevation change and some hole you need to hit to certain spots off the tee or you’re blocked but very very fun. Definitely good value so I’m going back!

so much lost potential

Exceptional layout. Challenging fast greens.

No amentities. Declining details. Needs a commitment to upkeep and investment.

Could be a gem but course looks hungover and tired Tee boxes and fairways need work. No clubhouse to speak of

The course has everything, wide and narrow holes, hitting off bluffs,

The course in very nice shape except for a lot of the greens. Some are very marred which makes putting difficult, also the play was very slow. I’d go back because it’s a difficult and it’s a nice course.

Gesse infestation

If you want to hit every ball into geese poop, or a flock of the nasty birds, you have found the best course to play. The course is in poor shape, due to the geese eating everywhere. The greens are pockmarked. The pace of play for us today was so slow, they really needed a ranger. By the time we got to number 16 four two sometimes were waiting together for a foursome that had played that way all day. I like the staff and the course, but for the price this is no longer worth it.

Great Challenging course

Fairways and greens were great. Raven was very nice, Course makes you play every club in your bag. Better signage would be nice, and a lower cut on the rough, would make it easier to find your ball.

Throw a couple hundred thousand at it and a new front desk girl, it'll be awesome!

Course layout was pretty awesome!

Upkeep is telltale.

I wouldn't pay $35 for 18 here let alone $50 again.

Front desk lady... you'll see if you go 🤣

It really is a neat layout and a challenging course. It's just way overpriced. There are plenty of city courses that are nicer.

If I could give this less than 1 star I would

First time playing this course and it will most definitely be my last. Course conditions weren’t great, the tee boxes were pretty beat up and the greens weren’t healed from being punched. The real problem was pace of play and the course not having a marshal. I paid for 18 but left after playing 9 holes that took almost 3 hrs. Was also denied a refund by the person in the pro shop ( if you want to call it that) because I wasn’t leaving because of bad weather.. if you want to play a 5.5- 6 hr round this is the place for you.
