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.

Unacceptable conditions

For the amount that one pays for fees at this course, the conditions are criminal. The fairways are not mowed and the rough is 4 to 5 inches deep in most places which indicates neglect. Greens are the only thing that was well maintained but almost all of the bunkers were woefully inadequate. It seems to me that the revenue from the fees are invested into the north course where the conditions are excellent. I would not recommend this course unless you are a beginner in playing golf.

Nice course

I would recommend Foxtail north. Fun course with lots of bunkering. Fairways and rough are very fair. Traps are in ok shape however not consistent. Greens are smooth and very fast.

First time playing the course in ~15yrs since being called Mountain Shadows. Lots of upgrades since changing hands including a very nice practice facility.

Would play there again.

Foxtail South June 2024

Greens were very good. Sand needs major work. Fairways were fair. The pace of play was ridiculously slow. It took us an hour to play the first 3 holes. We quit after 9.

Good golf course.

The round atarted foggy in early morning. Golf Course made me do my best shots. Challenge was real. Flat course, needed to use some course management. Carded 3 birdies on the back nine was not bad at all.

Last minute decision.

My only complaint would be the bunkers. They are a mixture of sand and dirt and they are like concrete. You really can’t play a normal sand shot.

Greens were nice and fast, though peppered with un-repaired ball marks. Pace of play was right on. 4 1/4 hours. Felt slightly pressured by the threesome behind us, but they were polite, friendly, and never hit into us.

Will play again.

South course

Pace of play was good and greens were in good condition. Unfortunately, most of the bunkers were unplayable due to standing water or otherwise very wet sand.

Pace of play was extremely poor. The threesome ahead of me were pretty slow and were hitting off tees they probably shouldn't have been hitting off of (but most guys are going to do that because they have their egos). When they were putting, they took way more time than they needed to. There's still a lot of standing water both in the rough areas as well as the middle of the fairways (hopefully this will improve once the rain stops and we get some decent weather).
