Confused but playable
Two groups had same teetime and neither were on the books. Turn was backed up with add in players. no one was on the course to help .
For a golf levels of players
I play here often and enjoy this course. You have the risk reward I like while playing
Good course for a basic, simple 18
Fox Hills is known on this side of town for it's Golden Fox, but it's other three 9's are ok. They are your average run-of-the-mill holes. Nice fairways with some rather small greens. Bunkers could use some work.
Fox Hills
Course was in great condition, fast greens for a good challenge.
I will never go back as long as Foot Golf is played there
I have played the strategic several times its a great way to sharpen the short game and tech new players. As stated in the title Foot golf has ruined the Strategic fox experience. For those who have never heard of foot golf it is basically golf with soccer balls and idiots. The greens were covered in marks from the soccer cleats making putting a joke.The foot golfers have no sense of golf etiquette. Many twosomes not joining up, an eightsome backing up the whole course. I am pretty sure the group in front of us was so stoned they could barely play. Believe it or not I am not a senile old man complaining about "those dang kids". I am 25 and I just love golf. Sorry Fox hills but the foot golf has to go before I ever come back.
A great, fun course period. Not just for a par-3.
I've wanted to play this course for awhile, and finally did as a warm-up for the Golden Fox. It was so much fun! I can't think of another 18-hole par 3 course in MI; even Threetops is only 9 holes. I hit everything from 60* wedge to 6-iron on these holes, so it's a great iron warm-up prior to playing the other bigger courses at Fox Hills, or just as a nice quick, enjoyable round with some friends. As a private instructor, I'm well aware that the golf course business is dropping a bit in participation and revenue, so I'm a proponent for this new Foot Golf craze. They have Foot Golf pins set up on each hole, if you're kicking a soccer ball rather than hitting a golf ball that day, so it's kind of cool to be out on the course with soccer balls flying around too lol. I'd like to try it someday, and this is the only facility I know of that has it around here. Overall, a great fun little stress-free course you need to try!
A solid course at a great facility. Try at least once.
I've played this course several times, and it's always a solid challenge. It's the perfect combo of what I define as a first-shot and second-shot golf course. It's a first-shot course in the sense that there's so much trouble in play off the tee, that more often than not there's trouble left and/or right of the fairway, so you'd be better suited laying back and getting the ball in play. But it can also play as a second-shot course since there's not much bunkering or intense doglegs to worry about hitting a relatively straight driver into, so if you can hit the driver straight you'll make the course play much shorter and easier to score. From the tips, I've shot everything from 73-82, playing about the same each time. Just goes to show how quickly the course can jump up and bite you with even a slightly loose shot. Overall, a great facility where I'd recommend playing the Strategic Fox 18-hole par 3 course as a warm-up beforehand. Very fun!
A favorite course
Fox Hills (Hills, Woodland, Lakes) is a favorite course - three nine-hole courses offering different experiences on each. Friendly while being challenging, If you don't keep it in the fairway, be sure to bring adequate balls. This course is normally busy, but the round Sunday was very fast - under three hours (played as a single) - and there was only a $10 charge for an additional nine holes that played in under an hour. The facility has two other courses on the property - Fox Classic (links) and Fox Strategic (a challenging par three course).
this course is nice
The course was in good shape very friendly staff. Enjoyed both the lakes and hills courses. I will be back to play enjoyed the round.
Beautiful course and round
I got lucky with this course because I happened to book my round on a spectacular day. I played alone and was only held up a few times so I could finish eighteen holes in under 3.5 hours. A beautiful course. Well maintained.
Absolutely Fantastic !!!
The grass was Green, The Sun was shining an Absolutley Fantastic round of Golf and the price made it just that much more enjoyable !!!
Wonderful
This course was in wonderful condition, somewhat challenging but not too bad. It's in a nice quiet location where you can relax and work on your game. Bonus, the food at brunch at the clubhouse was spectacular!
Fast Play Today
Course was in really good shape. Colors were beautiful and green were clear of all leaves.
Fabulous course, this course has challenging features that keep it interesting
Very disappointed with the staff. We arrived 1/2 hr before our t-time only to find a 20 person outing going off ahead of us. When I asked the staff member in the pro shop, he said 'that's what you get for booking with Golfnow', I was shocked at his response and I told him that had better not be the case. I expect the same courtesy and pace of play as any one else that is playing the course. As it turned out the pace of play was aweful, staff did not come out and encourage them to play faster, we were paced at an hour over expected pace of play. It was a long day, we were unable to keep our momentum and did not enjoy our round of golf at all.
Good Course (classic)
Nothing special, but a relatively scenic round of golf for a good hot deal price. I don't think I'd pay more than $25 to play the classic. Their three courses get mixed up on reviews.
Beautiful
Nice course set up, all nines offer variety and different shots. highly recommend to all golfers.
Woodlands played real nice, unfortunatley they put to many people on the second nine, Waters, and we needed to quick because of time restraints.
They need to manage their committed tee times. To many outings scheduled made making the turn to the second nine impossible.
Great course for short game practice.
Great course and great price. Great practice for par 3's.
Great course for younger golfers
I have played twice at the Fox Hills Strategic Fox par 3 course with my boys and we all really enjoyed it.
The Classic Fox is a relatively short course, but is still a lot of fun to play. The condition of the course is excellent with the exception of the cart paths (which are really rough and uneven). The fairways are wide open and have very few out of bounds areas or hazards. The greens were in nice shape. I recommend the course, especially if kids or inexperienced golfers are involved.
CHALLENGING BUT FAIR
GOLFERS SHOULD ENJOY PLAYING AT THE GOLDEN FOX GOLF COURSE. THE LAYOUT IS CHALLENGING BUT WITH REASONABLE ACCURACY, A GOOD SCORE CAN BE ACHIEVED. THE TOUGHEST ASPECT IS THE SPEED OF THE GREENS WHICH CAN REACH 11 TO 12+ ON THE STIMPMETER IF THE THE WEATHER HAS BEEN HOT AND DRY. I THINK A RETURN VISIT IS VERY POSSIBLE AND I RECOMMEND THE COURSE TO MY FELLOW GOLFERS.
