Great Course, but worth 30-40 not 60-70

Let’s start off by saying the course is own by the park district, I’m not sure how they can get away with charging ridiculous rates when there are two other courses within a stones throw. The driving range used to be amazing until they made it mats only because of Covid (I’m an ER doctor please explain to me how mats prevent Covid instead of real grass). I would say the course is comparable to Redtail golf courses except Redtail doesn’t charge 60-70 dollars and let’s singles play hot deals. It’s a shame I bought a house on the course but don’t get any benefits except finding golf balls in my yard

First Time Playing

Great track..but

First time playing this course! Loved the track and conditions were excellent the only negative I have to say about this place is that they jam pack too many tee times which made the pace of play miserable. Waited about 10-15 mins per shot just about. If ur fine with long rounds then this shouldn't be an issue

Pace challenged

Foxford is a very nice layout, with challenging holes and in great shape. Pace of play has become their regular achilles heal. After a 2:10 front, the back was 2:50. Literally waiting on most shots, and for several minutes on most tee boxes. Friendly staff and nice amenities, but getting past a nearly 5 hour round may prevent a return anytime soon.

Great shape, but SLOW

Course in great shape.

Back nine is horribly slow every time I play there. No rangers on the course to move people along.

Course is challenging but not crazy and in very nice shape. Bunkers have deeper, softer sand than I like. A little too hard to play from.

Always a joy to play and great layout and lots of challenges . Course was in good shape overall but the greens were a bit beat up allready with lots of ball marks and pretty slow compared to what they usually are . One of my fav courses to play in the Chicago area nevertheless !!
