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 value

This course is one of my favorites first because it is a great value and second I like the design, not a monster with my erratic game, just a straight forward track. My kid and I played for $34 total. It's about 6,400 yards from the blue tees but seems to play longer because there are some tough par 4's. Some of the fairways have poor watering patterns so there are bare spots and thin turf, but the greens are usually well maintained and fairly fast.

Never play on A Saturday

Clearly the staff has ZERO idea on how to organize a tee sheet. On more than a few holes we had 4 count em 4 groups on a hole...Seriously, for 65 bucks - NO THANKS. The course was so packed they we handing out free rounds like candy. Really bummed out, my buddies and I to look forward to golfing all week and drive 45 minutes up to Rohnert Park to have a 5:35 ROUND, rude folks working there and a terrible time. Monday- Friday may be better but don't go near that place on the weekends....

inexpensive course gets lots of players, needs water or rain to restore grass in many areas

We've played Foxtail South many times and even if it is heavily used, it is an enjoyable, not too challenging course for the less than good golfer. There are few challenges for the straight and long ball hitters, for the average duffer, it make you work..

Flat Track with some challenging approaches

I have always loved these two courses (Foxtail North & South) and for the $$$ you can't find a better deal for 18 w/cart. It's a hidden gem for us weekend golfers!

Super fast Greens!

I've played the course on numerous occassions; I found the course in great shape!

Very plush and borderline over watered for October, considering we have had very little rain.

The Greens were much better/faster than I remember, the course has been very well maintained.

Starting Green Fee's were $50/player; Golf Now got us on the course for $27/player...at Noon!

cheap muni

great value. Flat course, poor drainage.
Great greens, lightning quick.
bad taste on the back nine, the starter let a father and two very young children cut in on the 10 hole. Father was quite rude, When asked where they came from the Dad was all attitude. It was a very bad experience.

Nice, fun course

Great greens - fast and true. Nice fairways - lots of room to land shots, but lots of trees to create challenge for off-line shots.

South Course an excellent value for the casual golfer

Played with a friend of mine on Sunday, August 18th. Tee time at 9:12am. We paid $28/person for 18 holes, including cart. We were ecstatic about getting this price. Tremendous value.

It was just the two of us, but we weren't paired up with another two-some, which we appreciated. We don't play often, so we liked being able to play at our own pace.

Overall, we had a very enjoyable round. The front nine was very slow moving, as there were a few groups bunched up ahead of us, but we were in no rush so it was fine.

I've played the FoxTail South Course probably 6-8 times before, and it is a fairly easy course for the casual/average player. Not too many opportunities to lose golf balls, as long as you keep your drives relatively straight (which I appreciate). There are a few holes with water and some long Par 4s with trees lining the fairway, so I think there are still enough challenges to keep things interesting.

The course is in decent shape, but one thing that REALLY stood out (and I've noticed before at this course), is the amount of standing water everywhere. For the middle of the summer, where it hasn't rained in weeks, the course is borderline flooded in several areas. It didn't really affect our gameplay at all, but it was definitely strange. There were a couple times where I found myself slopping through mud to get to my ball, even though it was barely off the fairway. Just something to keep an eye on, I guess.

All is all, a fun round of golf at a super friendly price. Cheers!

Fun course layout (Noth Course)

My friend and I play every other weekend, he lives in Santa Rosa and I live in Napa and we really enjoy playing the North Course. The course is always kept in great shape with challenging greens. We enjoy the course not only because of location, but mainly you can grip and rip for the majority of the holes. Definitely recommend the "North Course" at Foxtail G.C., an enjoyable layout.

Greens were really fast and wouldn't hold approach or chip shots. Made it challenging.

I would play the course again for the value. There was a twosome in from of us with one player and his 2 year old son. He let him putt after he was done playing while we waited to hit our approach shots.

Advice for Foxtail...no children under the age of 7 on the course. Made no sense at all and it slowed play. That is what the driving range/putting greens are for. Correct?

great value from golf now

great value ($32 with cart) from golf now. beautiful course but confusing to find the north one (36 holes - north & south). beware (!) you must drive the cart through a large intersection (twice) to get to #1 and again after #18. there's a pedestrian cross walk there, but it is nerve wracking driving through when cars are approaching, potentially turning etc.
2 - 4 bunkers on most holes, and the greens were pretty quick. lots of maintenance guys out taking care of the course (don't they have to wear some type of head protection?) which is appreciated. didn't see a washroom on the front 9 till like hole #8 ... which might prove awkward if you drank too much coffee. and cute kids selling golf balls on #15 (?) for "$1 for pro-v's and 50 cents for everything else" (!). super charming, and polite, and only 6 years old! future entrepreneurs.
as well, the first few holes are adjacent to a hotel (doubletree) and a small mall, so saw some people wandering across and beside several fairways. also girls picking blackberries near some some greens. okay i guess, but surprising to me.
range looked okay, but pricey for balls and hitting off mats ...
2some we played with highly recommended windsor golf club up the highway 15 minutes. not on golf now, but looks great on website (former stop for nike tour).
overall an excellent day.

Too Slow!

Five and One Half Hour round due to senior men's group of twenty ahead of us. Brings a new meaning to "While we're young". No one enjoys ten minutes between shots!

Hacker Friendly...Great For Novice!!

Great for someone who can appreciate playing out of their own fairway...fairways are filthy wide, with very little trouble. The course was a tad over watered, many soft spots, but during summer months, what choice do they have in order to keep the couse from drying out....Greens were impeccable, true roll, and fast. Overall, a fun day for $19.00 with cart....Thanks Golfnow

Course is in good condition,superior to the south course

The north course at Foxtail is in good condition. It is superior to the south course. I think it is moderately difficult with a fair amount of sand and water. The only major complaint I have is so many folks wandering around the course in the summer
