Fox Run Golf Links

I was playing with a friend early morning, 6:56 tee time and we were paired with another twosome. The group in front of us wss playing very slow and the ranger talked to them to speed up play. After a few holes, the ranger informed our group that we were behind pace and a joke behind the group in front and would have to play the next hole from the 150 yardage marker as opposed to teeing off. I lobbied with the ranger politely that it's not my fault that he probably forced the ahead group to do something similar add it's not my fault that one player in our paired twosome wasn't hitting well. Plus, the only time the group behind us wss waiting was on a par 3 where we were on the tee box waiting for the group ahead to clear. On the back 9, we were constantly waiting so souring my round did not help with pace of play.

I paid good money for the round, $63 and to have unreasonable power tripping rangers interfering ensured I would not be coming back.

A terrific course nicely located in a neighbourhood in the Chicago area North West suburbs. Greens were exceptional. Well marshalled course. I will return.

Great discovery in Elk Grove Village. Nice layout could have walked it. My golf buddy and I were impressed by the quality of the fairways and greens and the challenges presented by the water holes on the back nine.

Course is in great condition but when it takes almost 5 hours to play. Course staff management should address this issue!!

Played with some friends on a Tuesday afternoon. We had a great time. No delays and the course was in good shape.

Course did not list wet conditions or advise that it was cart path only. Made for VERY slow play on a hot day. Greens were outstanding though.

The course decided to let an outing out at noon on the Saturday of a holiday weekend. It was clear that no one in the outing had ever played golf before, and several of the carts had children in them, who would run around the fairway while our group was trying to tee off. Basically, they treated the golf course like a public park for their kids to play on. Other groups would drive across other people's fariways with zero regard for anyone else on the course.

We teed off a half hour late because of this outing and the first 3 holes took 90 minutes to play. It was only after several people called the clubhouse to complain did they send a ranger out to do something about it. The round still took 5+ hours, which I suppose was better than the 9 hour pace we were on.

When I expressed my displeasure to the starter regarding the first tee box being 3 groups behind, his response was "It's an outing, we can't really do much about it." Yes, there is plenty you can do about it, you just chose not to. A legitimate golf course doesn't allow an outing to back up the entire course, especially on a weekend.

Needless to say I won't be returning to this course

Soggy turf.

(Raining on/off for 10 days.)

My wife and I basically had course to ourself. Others stayed away due to less than perfect conditions, but that was just fine.

Lots of water comes into play. Gotta think your shots through.

Friendly Ranger/Starter.

Course was in good condition. Greens were perfect, no marks, fast and ran true. Putting was a pure joy. Some are f the hole layout was confusing at times, finding the 7th hole was difficult to find. Not well marked.

Overall course was fair and fun to play.

Love this golf course, the layout, fairways, the greens and the tee boxes are in excellent condition and well maintained.

Thumbs up

Over the last few years the course has continued to improve the out of bounds areas along several fairways which improves speed of play so golfers are wandering looking for their balls in the tangled growth. But even it just looks and feels better playing those holes knowing exactly where hazards are and just visually more pleasing. Also, staff was helpful with accommodating my twosome after a mix up on our tee time.

I came in as a single just trying to squeeze in as much golf as I could in March. Pace of play was very slow, others had the same idea as me, and it was cart path only which led to some of the delay. I joined the 3 some ahead of me and had a good time. The greens were in incredible shape for March, I was shocked. A lot of holes are short and a driver isnt needed. Bunkers are in play off the tee on a lot of holes. I enjoy playing this course. FUN GOLFER NOTICE* if you plan on bringing your own beer you have to hide it in your bag. carts are not allowed into the parking lot so you cannot sneak in a cooler.

First time played and was pleasantly surprised.

For winter time, was in decent shape..

Although pace was acceptable, could use more on course ranger presence to keep pace up...
