Fox Run Golf Links

A little tight, watch out for balls. Greens were in good condition and held well.

it was very hot and humid. no water coolers and no beverage cart. too hot and humid to go more than 2-3 holes without something to drink . needed ice!!!!!

Best value around,drove from MontgomeryIL.well worth it.GPS makes for faster play,also rough not too deep able to find balls without much problem.Can"t beat it.

Unlike other reviews that I have read, the pace of play was fine, we finished in 4.5 hours on a Sunday. A noticeable ranger was on the course. Course was also in good shape, and green surfaces were smooth and fast.

Enjoyed playing course. Being a value price through golf now mad it a real nice deal. Greens very good but pace of play was very slow. Nice variety of holes with some very challenging but others easy.

Was able to get out on a Sunday morning in April for $50, cart included. Course was in good condition. After reading Yelp reviews, I was worried about what we may face in terms of staff on the course. I can say there is definitely a staff presence on the course, but the worst we had to deal with was a ranger telling us to please keep the carts on the cart path near the greens (I had parked on the grass directly to the side of the cart path to avoid jumping the curb). He was matter of fact about it, but I didn't mind. I also don't mind the staff being on the course to speed up play, if it's needed. So many courses out there that don't do this, and it bothers golfers (myself included).

My only gripe is that a number of holes are built on top of each other. You need to be paying attention a lot to wayward balls. One member of our group had a ball wiz within two feet of him. It's not fun being hit by a golf ball. Also, there was no cart girl the day we were there. There was a sign posted though in the pro shop, so we knew before teeing off.

All in all, a nice course. I was pleased with it, being my first time there. I would play it again.

New course design made course much more user friendly

Course was in very good shape

Greens in great condition

Still some boring holes, but improvements at 18 to name one, definitely makes for a return visit

Staff was very nice also, keep up the good work FoxRun

nice course greens are good

Good value for the day of fun golf. My friend told me about this course and we enjoyed it

Good challenging course with great greens. Only complaint is that the pace of play was very slow. 4 hours and 45mins and we still weren't able to finish the round due to darkness.

The Fox Run golf course is in excellent condition. The fair ways and greens were well maintained.

Good value, not a walkiing course, could use some more road signs, somewhat challenging with some interesting water holes and greens were faster than I remember them last year.

Played here for the 2nd time in 5 years. Forgot how nice it was.
A+++ for the $$

should dig out all the fairways and put in bentgrass. Need to replace all asphalt cart paths. Need to clean up all ponds and streams. Need to go electric with their golf carts. Would be very cool if they could design a second story deck over looking practice green.

Tee time: 2:24 on a Friday ($32).

Fox Run always keeps me coming back. It's a good course for the value. Pace of play varies. Sometimes you can finish in under 4 hours and other times it may take north of 5 hours. During our last outing I noticed that the greens were a little beat up (please fix your divots). Fairways are good. Yes, some of the holes are bland, but there are interesting ones as well. I like the challenges presented by the creeks that cut through the course. The GPS system on the carts is plus, however I would like to see them upgrade to something better. Fox Run is the course to turn to if you're looking for a reasonable round of 18.

Course was in great condition considering how hot and dry the weather has been. Greens were smooth and consistently quick. Carts were painfully slow though.

As always, I judge a course-itself by 4 things... greens, bunkers, cart-paths, and fairways. The greens are simply the best greens for a public course in the Chicago-area... almost no divots or brown spots anywhere makes putting enjoyable and the grass around the greens is well-maintained for fun wedge shots. Most of the bunkers are soft fluffy sand and always raked after usage (players are courteous). The fairways are in great shape with no dead grass or muddy areas and well-groomed along the sides/first-cut. Lastly, the carts have GPS and the cart-paths are paved and enjoyable to ride along on with some small pot-holes that should be filled in here and there, but not much (not too concerned tho).

The most enjoyable part of the course were the Rangers and starters. They were very knowledgable about the course layout and when to use particular clubs on certain holes. They were also courteous and when we asked if my 3-some could skip ahead of the 5-some ahead of us, the Ranger said he would take care of everything and not to worry. Sure enough, at the turn we were informed to move ahead of the 5-some, which was very nice. The Ranger even sent the cart-girl back to us after we missed her while putting. That was nice.

Overall, best public course under $50 in the Chicago-area... hands down. Interesting holes with just the right amount of water and sand. For the end of August, you can tell management cares about the upkeep of this course.

I want to play here again before it starts to get cold out.

Course in great shape, pace was fine amd price super!

The fair ways and greens were in excellent condition. Just enough water and sand traps to keep your interest.

Book a 10 am tee time. Got off fine but after the 1st 2 holes the course seemed like it came to a halt. On average we waited on every tee box. Made the pace of play extremely slow. In fact the finishing hole we waited 5 mins to tee off and another 5 for 2nd shot. the guy we played with left before the 18th due to this. When we finished the rangers where talking about how off pace some 4some where. Normally the course is played at pace.
