There are two championship courses at Foxtail Golf Club, the North and the South. Situated in the heart of wine country, both courses enjoy a lush, scenic landscape and pleasant views of the surrounding countryside. The longer and more difficult North Course was completely redesigned to make it more challenging but the player-friendly South Course has remained a favorite destination of both Sonoma and Marin Counties for its playability. It provides a more beginner-friendly option than the North, but there are still plenty of challenges in store. No water hazards come into play but there are several strategically placed bunkers as well as trees lining the fairways. In addition to the two golf courses, Foxtail also boasts one of the best practice facilities in the North Bay. There is a full driving range available as well as chipping and putting greens.

good golf

front nine is somewhat challenging, but,back nine is championship golf.

new sand on front side is so fine and though, and hard to play, because no golf course in northern California has a such fluffy beautiful sand.

greens are true and fast among the best

Time to MOW!

This comment is for the South course. Can't speak for the North, but my playing partners said they take MUCH better care of it:

Rainy season has been over for a month now, but the watering of this course is so scattershot it's still got puddles of standing water, areas outside the fairways that don't seem like they've seen a mower in weeks if not months.

I like the course ok, it's a fairly tight driving course, made more so by the untended areas where balls can easily be lost - just a few yards off the fairway!

Ease up on the watering & mow this course!

Nice course

Foxtail is a nice course. It can be very slow and the golfers at times not very courteous. Marshal is worthless .

If golfing in Rohnert Park, golf the south course. Way cheaper and just as good.

Good value!

First time here and the Pro shop properly advised us about the condition of bunkers and keeping the ball in the fairway. The rough is long and shaggy. Easy to lose a ball, if you don’t track it all the way. Fairways in great shape, bunkers were not playable. The greens were superb. True roll and a bit fast. Very few players , no one was behind us. Friendly personnel. Nice practice putting and chipping area plus driving range. Nice 19th hole.

Great shape after heavy rains

We played after 2 days of heavy rains and the course handled it very well. Carts were allowed on the fairway. Greens were in perfect condition.

The overall conditions were ok considering the excessive winter rains

The staff was very friendly. We were a 2 some and there were 4 foursomes in front of us. The starter let us go off the back nine and we played the back nine in 90 minutes . We then joined another twosome and played the front nine in just over 2 hours. The greens were running fast and true. Some of the sand traps were fine others were under maintained. Given the wet winter we just had in Sonoma County, the course in general was in pretty good shape. Some areas were unmowed due to the still wet conditions

Foxtail South

The fairways and greens were in good shape. Form and dry with very few exceptions. The rough had just been mowed after a long, wet winter. Lots of grass ‘hay rows’. I wouldn’t recommend using your best balls. Even if a good shot they will get lost in the hay on the fringe.All around good condition

The Role of Golf Now

I purchased two tee times. One for tuesday 4/8 and 4/9. I arrived at course on 4/8 to be told by club house guy that course was really “mushy” and that it would not be for another week before it was playable. The course with the exceptions of the greens was a mess. Rough hadn’t been mowed this spring, fairways were covered with white flowers (better use a yellow ball) and my first three tee shots pluggers in the fairway. Lost 12 balls on front nine. Played back nine from 150 and in with not tee shots or fairway metals. The course pro told me exactly they condition of the course but obviously GOLFNOW. Either didn’t know but certainly didn’t care. Getting ahold of GOLFNOW to speak to a person is impossible as i was told the wait time was an hour and 10 minutes. Ill eat the fee this time but will boycott GOLFNOW from now on. This course was unplayable!!

Play here every time I’m in the area

I like this course, and I love the fabulous staff!!

I come down for a week and a half every year and look forward to playing this course at least twice. This time the course was wet from some incredible rainstorms, and the pace of play was a bit slow because we were behind 8 or 9 foursomes and we were a twosome, but that’s to be expected. I’ll play again in a couple of days and hope the course has dried out a bit!

Course conditions very sloppy lost and found many balls

No fault of the course but the fairways and rough not cut on most of the holes because of the conditions. Sand traps are always bad. Employee's are always very friendly and professional. We just need better weather!
