Reviews
Great tees and greens
We played after heavy rains in the area so the ground was somewhat soft, but otherwise it was in great shape. The greens were like smooth carpet balls rolled true. The tees were manicured nicely. We got a great deal on Golf-now and that is what brought us here, but we will come back even without a great deal.
Fox Prairie Central/East
Course was in pretty good condition. A little wet in areas which was surprising considering there hadn't been much rain recently. This was my first time playing the course so I'm not sure if that's normal or if the course has some drainage problems. The biggest CON for me is the lack of yardage markers. I rely heavily on yardages and they are hard to come by on this course! I'd like to see more yardage markers, on sprinkler heads or in a yardage book. For the price of the course they could almost add gps to the carts...that would be a great addition.
But the course was fun and challenging tee to green and I would play it again.
Good value
Tees, and fairways were in great shape. Greens were as fast as any I have played on this year. Sand traps needed a lot of attention as we had to play "rake and place. You do have to use clubs other than driver off the tee but is that so bad? You see the players who make a living at this doing the same thing.
Very pleased
Had a great time. Brought three of my friends out to play Fox prairie for some golf and time to catch up with each other. Course was challenging but fair. We all really enjoyed the country scenery and agreed we will definitely be back. Didnt like the fact that GolfNow charges you full amount online through them now. Liked it better when you booked online with GolfNow they held your tee time and your foursome could settle up with course individually.
Short Course and a great value
Shot my first round under par at this course so I found it short and easier than the normal courses I play. Course is in great shape! The greens rolled great late in the day! Course was busy but had no trouble playing in less than 4 hours.
Well cared for facility
Greens are massive and roll nicely. Several long par-4's from whoite tees, pretty fair challenge and interesting course.
Excellent Course
We played the Central/West 18 and were very pleased with the course. The greens are large, smooth, and have a decent pace too them. They are overly fast, but will the subtle breaks they are fast enough to be tricky. We found that some of the distance markings to the creeks seemed to be off, but that would be our only complaint about the course. Our tee time for a twosome was at 10:27 and we were finished around 1:30, so the pace of play was superb. Overall it was a great experience and we will be back for sure!
Model Muni
The architect accomplished a minor miracle incorporating a small creek to pose interest on many holes. Made me think! Greens are outstanding. Watering stations are needed on more holes & ladies would appreciate more course-side toilets. Pre-made sandwich was adequate from a cooler, and the attendant was very friendly. Overall facility was neat & clean. A model muni!
Nice Course.
This was my first time playing this course and so it was an adventure not knowing what lied ahead. I was pleased with the design and degree of difficulty with some of the holes. Right off we were behind a 4 some who took 15 minutes to play the 1st hole but by the 3rd they let us play thru and never had another wait.
Great course, friendly staff
Course offers a great setting. Large, challenging greens. Fox Prairie has 3 nine-hole courses.
Nice course , unfriendly Pro
Booked tee times online , this was in the early afternoon during the week. The course wasn't busy , it's a city owned public course. when we arrived we find out the PRo has decided to pair us up with 2 other players, even thought the course was almost empty.
The pro very not friendly or helpful , he kind of acted like I should know where the carts were located , where the 1st tee was , did i mention this is a 27 hole course and he had assigned us to the tees, and that we would be paired up with other players.
This has only happened to me 2 other times on courses that were very busy during the moring hours, never during the week
Good as always
Have played course since 1993. It is still a good course with many challenging holes. Kept in very good condition.
Great Shape
This is the best condition I've seen this course in. Green were in very good shape.
Great Public Course Value/Greens superb
The course was in excellent shape and the greens were putting fast. The cups hadn't been changed so there was weekend wear around all the holes. Would highly recomend this course to anyone.
Fox Prairie
The course was in pretty bad condition when I played. The staff was decently friendly but we had a group behind us that were a bunch of old men and they were dicks. I would assume they are members there too. The pace of play was pretty good. I think their prices are outrageous for the course conditions but I was able to play for 19 dollars and I thought that was not bad.
Nice Course
They keep this course in tip top shape. Great value for the money.
Value
Overall good value for the $36 rate we played. Would play again.
Played 36 Holes
Great day course very well kept. Greens were slow starting out but as the day progressed the greens firmed up. Well kept course and a great value.
Great course, great staff
Great course and very friendly staff. Thursday is the senior league day. I would not recommend playing on this day as all of the seniors I have encountered have very poor golf etiquette ie make it very clear they will not allow you to play through.
Great track
We played Central to West in 3 hours, The course was in great shape. The greens were firm and consistent. For a City course it is a great value.
