Saxon Woods very nice course

Course was in great shape. Very fair course. If you get into trouble, you deserve it!
Greens were awesome! Fairways excellent. Tee boxes were ok but this late in the season a little worn but still good.
Highly recommend except when I book, everyone else should stay home so as not to crowd me!

Great place to play as challenging as you’d like to make it

A very nice well maintained course with really friendly staff from the pro shop to the Rangers.
Great condition especially for this time of year . Leaf cleanup was excellent.
Hoping for a few more rounds before the end of the year!

Thought I booked a different course

I booked Tradition at Wallingford by mistake. I thought I had booked the Woodbridge course!
We showed up and the staff were very very friendly and genuinely glad to have us there. From the moment we arrived we could tell this was no Augusta or Pebble Beach but it was really impressive that we got the feeling that they were using all of their resources to get as close as possible to those high standards. It had a great feeling about the place, and I appreciate the genuine effort to accommodate and their guidance.
The course was in great shape, very well cared for. The carts were clean and well maintained, the facilities were very good too.
The course is a little tight in places but a challenge is always refreshing. Some holes had overhead power lines.. nothing they can do about that and it really didn't take anything away from the day.
Although I was unfamiliar with the course, the better than average diagrams on the scorecard made it easy to understand where to go and where not to!
When you play this course, you'll love the replica par three island hole. Awesome. Maybe more so because all four of use hit the green. But just a great hole.
The last hole is a par 3. A bit surprising, but nevertheless a fun hole. A weird looking two-tier green, but, with the pin on the lower and landing the ball on the upper, you don't chip from the upper part of the green to the lower as you might think is the only solution. Just roll your ball down the channel to be surprised how close even the worst shot gets you a par. Those are two holes you'd be talking about on the ride home!
Overall, a very nice day of golf, and once more, the staff could not have been more helpful.
Great job guys!

Great course!

Played Fox Hopyard because it was time to play an outstanding course.
First thing was the course staff could not have been more helpful! They must have been well trained to put the customer first. So polite, friendly and so helpful. It really set the tone for a great day of golf.
The course is in fantastic condition. I thaught from the pictures that it was going to be more challenging, and it was to a certain degree, but, playing from the White Tees, it does open it up a bit.
The course is picturesque and very very maintained. No garbage or debris left lying around. Golf carts are well maintained, practice facilities are in great shape.
Just a great place to play!
Will definitely go back for another round.
Thanks Fox for making it such a great day!

Sunday May 21st

I have played this course about half a dozen times this year. It's a 104 mile drive from home and well worth it.
The staff are always very very friendly and the course is in great condition as always. The course is always kept in golfer friendly condition. Cant remember the last time I saw a leaf lying on the ground here which makes it so much easier to find your ball in the (ahem...) rough! Which then helps keep your score down and the pace of play up!
Great job to the entire staff.
My only complaint is that they are unwilling to move the whole golf course closer to my house...

Great place to play!!
