under appreciated course

this Course, from the tips, is one of the best in the northwest suburbs. It's got elevation changes, enough length to hang with the best courses, good green complexes etc.

only complaint, which I admit is always a tough one because it can be very situational, was the 5+hour round. we quit on 15 because there were 2 groups on the tee when we showed up. 7 minute tee times is not the best idea but that can be worked out, they had some big outing and it was a disaster for all who were behind it.

Great Course for the Money

This is the second time playing here and I have enjoyed it both times. Challenging layout. Pretty good condition. Somewhat slow...took our 4some about 4:20, which is slow to me.

First Time Playing

Really fun and beautiful course

First time ever coming here, I’ve gone to many courses around the lake county area and by far this course takes the cake, right off the bat the staff was super friendly and polite. The snack/drink cart would drive around frequently, considering you’re playing a rather big course, whereas other courses they either don’t have a drink cart due to staff shortage, which is understandable, or the drink cart takes a while to come back around. Now the course itself in my opinion was the most well kept and beautiful looking course compared to others. Greens weren’t that challenging but weren’t easy, driving around was a bit of a struggle cuz if you get semi close to the green boundary, being that the cart is electric, it’ll stop and you have to reverse from there despite not being THAT close. Overall an awesome, fun course to play at and most likely will go back there again 👍🏼

Great course, bad pace

It’s a shame they’ve started stacking tee times less than 10 minutes apart. This is one of my favorite courses and now it’s a guaranteed 5 hour round on weekend mornings. RIP

Slow Play

Left after 12 th hole and with 2 foursomes waiting and we were at 3 hours and 15 minutes ! Round would have been 5 hours min.
No ranger pushing anyone !

Great course but can’t take 5 hour rounds not worth it

Pace extremely slow

This was my 2nd time playing this course and the 1st time was perfect, the 2nd time was not as enjoyable. The course conditions were beautiful and it's a great course but we were 5 hours into the round and decided to quit after 15. There wasn't a single ranger in sight to speed things up. Again the course itself is awesome but 5 hours thru 15 is unacceptable.

It's becoming just about the money

My friends and I play Foxford pretty regularly. However, this will be changing. It took 6 hours to play a round. We have noticed the spacing getting worse over time and it is showing. I feel there should be more time in-between groups. When a course charges a premium over their competitors the course needs to realize the pace of play needs to be considered.
