Play this course

This was the first time playing this course. It is a pretty tough course with tight holes and tough greens. Some holes are long some short with target golf. Greens were perfect rolled great, good speed. I will be back to play this course again worth the hour drive. Played 18 in four hours with a foursome. Wish all the courses were in such great condition as this one.

First Time Playing

everything nice but the ranger

First time ever playing this course. Everything about it was incredible except for the course ranger Jim or Jeff who was an older guy... Go figure. My three buddies an I started the back and had this guy fly up on us out of nowhere and he started throwing his arms up in the air and complaining that we weren’t keeping up with pace when we had to wait on multiple tee boxes to hit and the group behind us was never anywhere in sight. He then accused us of raising our voices at him after we responded politely. Took down our cart numbers and said he was going to kick us off. I have never played a course with a staff member more out of line and disrespectful in my 20 years of playing the sport. I would play here again but some of these course rangers are out of line and need to take a step back.

Great course but slow play

Great course, design and interesting. However, often times play can get backed up, need rangers to push players better

Foxford Hills Review

Great course. Greens were in rather rough shape. Nobody repair their divots anymore there days. We finished at 6:15 on a Saturday and the bar and inside was already closed which was disappointing.

Horrible starter

When it was our tee time, the atarter ranger allowed 5 people to go ahead of us. We had theee players and when we asked about how he can allow five people to play, he said it is his choice to do so. The whole time we were playing, the starter kept bothering us and telling us that we were playing too fast. Of course it feels like we were playing fast if you allow 5 people playing ahead of us. We did not want to bother the people ahead of us so we had skipped a couple of holes. How is that fair to us! We strongly believe that he took some compensation from the group of 5 to allow such a thing. He ruined our whole golf playing experience. We normally like playing at this golf course but this particular starter needs to be repremended or fired foe this behavior!!!!

Hidden gem

Don't know why we never played this course before. It is a very playable course. Staff was very friendly. The course was in good condition. Pace of play was great. A few holes you have to play strategically. The greens are large . I will definitely come back.

It is fairly priced.

Challenging Course

Very attractive course design with lots of elevation change Especially compared to other northeastern Illinois courses. It feels more like a Wisconsin or Michigan course on any holes due to the rolling Hills. In great shape other than the greens, the greens had been punched a week or two ago, they are largely better now, but can still be bumpy in places. We had rain on and off, the bunkers were slightly inconsistent with some being smooth and some being rocky. Otherwise, great challenge, appealing course design, and the deal time was great. It is a bit further out than we normally drive, but nothing crazy. Rough is in good shape, not too long, but can be very challenging as the grass is thick and can catch your club on chips if you are down grain. Great local course in the Chicagoland area and would definitely return. All staff we encountered were very welcoming and friendly.
