Staff has issues

Played all the Barefoot courses this week, Dye course was total opposite from the other happy, pleasant three. Right from the start at the entrance gate we were getting attitude about showing up 2 hours + early. Then the wait staff in the restaurant seemed like we were an inconvenience. So then on the course the was maybe 10 foursomes total on the course, one group in front of us, nice group of younger players. We had a 1:08 tee time but there was no one there so we teed off at 12:30. Got through 3 holes with just the group in front of us, at a good pace. There was no one behind us at all so we drove over to the clubhouse to get some ice to keep the drinks cold and give a little room between us and the only other group in front of us. We got a visit from the ranger asking us to speed up play. There was absolutely no one on the course behind us, nor on the practice area near the 1st tee. Why did the ranger feel he needed to push us along with no one behind us. Besides according the cart gps we were only 5 minutes behind... but with a group in front of us. So in the end we finished our round in less than 4 hours.
The attitude from the staff was so unpleasant that we will not ever return to the Dye course. This course is so opposite from the other courses across the street.

Poor greens

Love this course but the greens are in terrible condition. Not an aeration / fertilization issue, just numerous large bare spots on at least 16 of the greens.

Not worth the money they are charging right now. Sad.

Sad course conditions

We have played Fox Hopyard many times in the past and always found it to be in excellent condition. Not this time. Not sure what is happening there but almost every green was horrible! Large bare spots in multiple areas of every green (except maybe one or two). This was not a case of aerating or fertilizing, we can deal with that. It seemed either to be diseased or not properly cared for. Tee-boxes were not much better, but that seemed to be more due to play.

When we teed off we thought $71 was a decent price to pay for this course based on past experience, boy were we wrong. Current condition is playing at a $25 rate right now. Sad. We hope they can improve the greens soon.

Superb course...

Played here numerous times (25+..?) and love the layout, conditions, clubhouse, proshop, and restaurant. Plain and simple the best course in the state. Price is a little steep so we play when they offer buy a round get one free offers. Or when we have Foxwoods points to help cover the cost.
