Foxford Hills Golf Club

I really like Foxford Hills. The layout is great and it's generally in very good shape. This round, the greens were really slow and rough. Hopefully, it was just due to the heavy rain we got a few days ago.

Foxford Hills is definitely a course to put into your rotation.

Note: I always walk Foxford Hills, but it's a pretty difficult hike.

Course was in excellent condition but the greens were EXTREMELY slow and for the course considering itself as one of the higher end courses, judged by their rates, they don't even offer GPS which is a very valuable tool for us average golfers making the game more enjoyable.

We played here mid-afternoon. The course is interesting, and offers some challenging holes. The greens are undulating, and relatively large. However, I found the course, especially the greens, to be in poor condition. The greens have an odd look to them that I haven't seen anywhere else in the Chicagoland area. They were very soft, due to some recent rain. We kept pace amongst some slower foursomes by cleaning up ball marks, perhaps a dozen per hole. They were so obvious, and fresh, I just had to figure the clientele either doesn't notice, or doesn't care to clean them up. This isn't the superintendent's fault. However, the greens were very inconsistent, and there were so many marks, bumps, debris, etc... It made the greens very difficult. With the undulating greens, the condition is very important, and anything beyond 5 feet is just a lucky guess of bumps and quirks, much less the break. If you are a generous gimme putter, and birdie putt is something you only see on TV,, this place is pretty cheap and it works. Otherwise, there are other places to be had for the same price, or a bit more that will be much more rewarding.

I think they should spend more time improving the condition of the greens. They definitely need to be rolled repeatedly. They are really bumpy and seem to be in poor condition. On a Sunday Morning at 7:30, they should be this bad.
This will chase away good players.

Foxford is a great track that could be outstanding if people would fix their ball marks. This is the problem with many of the public park district courses. People just don't care.

This one of my favorite courses. Very surprised at how bad the greens were, they are one of the worst I have ever played. The bunkers were also very inconsistent some had real nice sand and others were real hard. Back to the greens it is obvious that no one is fixing ball marks and they were very slow sad to see this happen to one of the great layouts in Illinois.

I was pleasantly surprised at what a nice track Foxford Hills is as I played it twice in 72 hours. A very nice rolling terrain with various T boxes to suit your game. The only disturbing factor was the greens. You would think that golfers who put down a decent amount of coin would repair their ball marks. The greens were atrocious. Signs are everywhere to encourage repair so they know it is a problem. Course management will either need to have the staff repair the greens or I predict it will impact future play.

I really like this course. What I didn't like was that there were 2 AND 3 groups waiting on the tee box almost every hole. There wasn't one single range one the course to keep pace of play. I had to call the pro shop on the 7th hole to express our dissatisfaction with what was going on. Finally someone came out and they told the groups in front of us to speed up. What made it more frustrating was that they were all threesomes. We finished our round under the 5 hour round by 7 mins.

Great weather made this a perfect round. We played in 4:25. 2 groups in front of us were a bit slow but the pace was quick enough to not worry about it. Course was in good shape.

I highly recommend this course. It's challenging, but fair. It's a beautiful course to play. The greens putt well, but have too many unrepaired divots.

I absolutely love the course layout and undulating fairways and greens.
Many greens a little spotty meaning bare spots.
We hit a wall on the back around 14 in terms of speed of play.
I could play here every day.

Greens were a tad bumpy but had good speed. Rough was very long due to all the recent rains. Foxford is always worth a play a couple of times a year....a very fun and interesting track with some very large greens and good challenges. We had a nice day.....would not pay more than $40 max to play here so seek out a hot deal! Golfvisions has done a nice job maintaining this course...lots of sand traps to keep smooth..

Course was in great shape, except for one green that had some winter damage. It was the weekend of the 4th of July and the pace of play was slow (5 hours). This was the first time I had experienced play so slow at this course. There was a 2 some that was just killing the pace and no ranger asked them to pick it up.

The only other item I noticed were the greens were a little bit slower this year. I recommend this course every time the topic of courses that are a top value comes up.

Excellent course, good challenge and has enough tee boxes for beginners as well as advanced golfers. That helps to keep a good pace.

Dissapointing for a Golf Visions course, greens were shaggy and very bumby. Pace of play is not controlled and was a a death march, waited 10+ minutes for nearly every shot. Like the layout, was my first time, very likely will not return.

This a great course for golfers who are not novice. It is a fairly challenging course with a great pace of play on a Friday afternoon. The course is very well maintained and had a good mix of challenge and fun. The only complaint is that the greens were a bit chewed up, but other than that the course was in good condition.

Course was in great shape. Set-up is challenging but fair which made for a good round. Foxford has a nice mix of link style and traditional tree lined holes.

It was a good experience, course in very nice condition except the greens were exceptionally slow. Other than that, very pleased and would go back again.

A lot of fun. Course was in good condition. Pace of play was terrible. Five hours to play. They need a ranger who speeds up the slow groups.

Great course, very challenging .great condition, will come back in fall to see all the trees when leaves are changing
