Rating Snapshot
About
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.

Rain
Everything was going good,we never finished it rain tooo hard
Great time
Course was in great shape
Greens were lighting fast and held really good.
course was in great shape
The course was in great shape, even though we have not had much rain in a couple of weeks. Will hopefully play there again next week.
needs improvement
I was a little disappointed in the course but did enjoy the day. Thank you
Play this course!
It's been 2 years since I played this course. There was a noticeable difference of improvement in course condition. Fairways were in good shape and the greens were in excellent shape. Certain spots the rough was difficult to get out of as expected. Lots of elevation shots. Challenging course that my friends and I will be back to play soon. Bring your "A" game!
Fox
The course was in great shape with the exception of the greens. They were recently aerated and we're still sandy and slow. I think the course should be telling prospective players about the aeration prior to booking a time. Great pace of play and friendly staff.
great course well maintained
The course was in very good shape, even though the greens were recently aerated and fresh sand applied they were still in good condition. The fairways had very few bare patches or divots, overall very good condition.
Great layout and greens
Layout makes for a nice strategic round
Greens are old style, back to front sloped, challenging and fun
you will lose balls OB
Par 3s are short, ho hum
Great value if you don't care about amenities, just golf
not bad
This is a great course, when it is dry. Elevated T boxes I and the greens make it worth the money. Not to mention some of the most challenging part 5's in the area.
Not bad for the hot buy
Course was pretty well taken care of, mostly long open fairways but still gets technical on green approach and putting. Pro shop is barren, a desk with a computer and a tshirt rack is all it has. As for food there really wasn't any. I like grabbing a hotdog on the turn, all there was was a vending machine in the cart garage so I had to settle for a $1 small bag of combos that I can get at the local cornerstore for 65 cents. You can tell this course used to flourish back in the day, but now it's facilities are like a ghost town. The golf was still pretty good overall.
Local favorite
Love this course. Very tough, hidden challenge. Make sure your hitting straight, or you can be ate up.
Average
Course was very hard in spots. Like hitting off of concrete.
Great course
First time there and I'll be a repeat customer only bad thing I came across was no food till 1130 I'm an early golfer so lunch for me is 10-1030 but that's ok course was great!!
A beautiful course
A beautiful, well groomed, and great value golf course, thanks golfnow for getting me there.
Nice course
It was my first time playing at Fox Creek. The course was in great shape, greens rolled true, and the views were excellent. There were numerous elevated tees and greens, which made it a little challenging (not to mention the 15-20 mph winds at times). The value was great. I would definitely recommend checking this course out sometime this summer!
Course is in nice shape
This is a nice course. It's got a little of everything: changes in elevation, water, sand, and plenty of dog legs. I was surprised that it was dry out, having stormed a day or two before. They are working on improving the drainage, so certain parts of the course are under repair. All in all a very nice round.
Fun course some real challenging holes
This course is fun to play. It is not real difficult but a challenge particularly if you do not get off the tee well. There are several blind shots where direction and distance come into play and several holes involve second shots over water. Like all courses playing from the blue adds to the length and difficulty. I like the shot making needed to score well.
I recommend Fox Creek as a great round of golf.
Bang for the buck
. Weather was terrible. From tee to green still very playable. Once a nice establishment, now rundown. Course is still challenging.
Wet, wet, wet.
Although the course was very wet, when it had not rained in days, the fairways were well manicured and the greens in excellent condition. Upon arriving, carts looked like they had been through a mud bog, didn't take long to find out why. Course is well taken care of, golfers are not, for example, cart paths, restrooms, pro shop all show their age.
ok
The course was flooded and made it hard to really enjoy it. No one told us they moved the tee boxes because of the flooding. Alot of tees mismarked. Dont think I'll come back
