Fox Run Golf Links opened in 1984 but over the past two years the course underwent a major renovation that made the layout both more challenging for serious players but also more forgiving for the recreational golfer. The multi-million-dollar renovation included enhancements to the hole layouts, redesigning the bunkers, installing a new irrigation system, and creating new practice and chipping areas. Water comes into play often throughout the golf course and you'll find elevation changes on nearly every green. The water holes will be especially tough if you have a tendency to slice the ball. Thanks to the varied layout, which includes some holes that are wide open and others that are more target-style golf, you will get the opportunity to work on different types of shots. Fox Run Golf Links is a challenging but fair test that players of all skill levels can enjoy.

Hole Locations

Nice condition; however, the hole locations are funny. I don't think they pay attention to where they place the hole. Some hole locations were impossible. We tested a few and even when you placed a ball close to the hole with your hand the ball would roll away. The greens are nice, but if they need to figure out where to put the holes. Some greens are like mini-golf.

Course should have an age limit for golfers

The course was in great shape. Front nine played fast. Back nine was a joke a group of four early teens were horsing around playing demolition derby with their pull carts, taking their sweet time on the tees. The ranger tried to speed them up but to no avail. Other than that the round was enjoyable. Kids under 16 should have an adult with them.

Awesome Golf Club

The course was very well groomed, staff great, concession stand was closed so had to go to bar for food or drink. Wait time was very long. Especially when making the turn. Recommend to staff bar up at least until concession stand reopens. But overall, was a great day on a beautiful day & staff did great job on a very busy day!

Course in great shape, but too slow.

I went on a Monday morning to avoid weekend crowds. The course was quiet, started with at least two holes open in front of our group. We were 2 hours for our front nine, then we waited on almost every hole on the back nine. Someone needs to be out there, that shouldn’t happen.
