Early Spring Golf

Look, I know courses won’t be in pristine condition in early March, but this course should not have been open. 13 out of the 18 greens were completely covered in snow and not playable. Also, the 17th hole was not even walkable. I had to pull my pushcart through 150 yards of shin deep snow and slush to get to the snow covered green. It would have been nice for the course to put an advisory notification on the tee time so I was made aware of conditions prior to them stealing $40 from me and the 250 other golfers the starter told me they had on property.

That will be the last cent this place ever gets from me.

Great layout, great greens, great staff, great golf course! Somewhat forgiving off the tee, this is a 2nd shot golf course. The game really starts on the greens here. They are fast, complex usually perfect.

Unjustifiably overpriced under new ownership

The course is under new ownership and is now way over priced. I could see the prices being raised had they made significant changes to the layout, or had they improved the overall conditions of the course (the greens remind me of the surface of the moon). I've seen no improvements to the course to justify the prices from going in the Mid $40's peak time, peak season to the near $70 they want now. Overall, its a decent track, but I feel you can find better value at other area courses like Prairie Isle or Blackstone.

I'll play Foxford again once their prices either come back to earth, or they make improvements to justify the top dollar rates they want.
