Foxford Hills Golf Club

It rained all morning and stopped just as we teed off around 11:15 am. Other than bunkers, the course drained pretty well. It was our third time playing it, and we will be back. It’s an interesting and challenging layout but fair, unlike its next door neighbor Chalet Hills.

This is one of the best layouts in Chicago area

I’ve played over 409 courses and one of my favorites

Staff is great. ( I’ve worked at private club for 15 years)

Great value for seniors

Only 2 issues

Rake in the cart. - as stated , played over 400 courses and this is only the second course that has ever had the take in the cart. Annoying

Second- greens roll ok but greens are always too too slow. I play here 5-10 times a year and they are always slow.

Everything was perfect except sand traps were absolutely terrible. Why have such a great course but then have terrible bunker conditions? Plus putting the rakes on the carts instead of at the bunkers is a terrible idea. First of all walkers have no way of raking traps. They are also always in the way when you’re grabbing a club or 2. What if someone doesn’t know they are in the bunker? Then they have to walk back up to the cart and back. What if 2-3 players have the misfortune of all being in bunkers on the same hole? What should they do? Play pass the rake? Just don’t rake it, like all of the walkers? Just stupid policy overall. Did I mention the bunkers were bad? lol. Geez

I was impressed with this course all around. New carts, well manicured fairways and greens, great layout, challenging beautiful course.

It’s about 40-45 minutes from home but a very enjoyable course. Interesting layout with plenty of challenge and not unfair at all. Much better than Chalet Hills down the road.
