Foxford Hills Golf Club is owned by the Cary Park District and is considered one of the finest public golf facilities in the Chicago area and state of Illinois. The facility has been featured in numerous golf publications. Foxford Hills is known for offering a great golf experience at a reasonable price.
Foxford Hills Golf Club opened mid-June of 2002. Located in Cary, Illinois, the course was designed by architect Tim Nugent and is a 7,023 yards, par 72, 18-hole golf course with a 32 station driving range that offers grass and mats. The course is owned by the Cary Park District.
The course was designed to be a player-friendly course that attracts the avid as well as the novice golfer. If you like golf, this course is a must play. The golf course is carved from exceptional wooded topography near the Fox River in eastern McHenry County on the western edge of Lake County. The first 6 holes can be described as an open, links style and prepares the golfer for the final 12 holes that are played through mature woodlands, natural wetlands, and elevation changes that enhance and offer unique challenges to each golfer.
There are five sets of tees, allowing players to choose yardages from 5,040 from the front tees to 7,023 from the back tees. The landing areas are a minimum of 40 yards wide; rough is maintained relatively short, and fescue areas border the primary rough with minimal penalizing effect. Greens average an undulating but fair 6,500 square feet and are A-4 bentgrass, which is a variety of bentgrass developed to providefast, smooth putting surfaces.
There are wetlands, but Nugent designed the course with few "forced carries." However, if a hole is impacted, bailout areas provide an opportunity for fair play.
The bunkering on the course is beautiful and strategic and may be the best in the Chicagoland area. The bunkering concept and design was taken from the great and famous architect, Alister Mackenzie, designer of Augusta National and other famous venues.
Foxford Hills beautiful clubhouse offers a great full service golf shop, 19th hole concept, with a clubhouse grill that provides an appetizing array of food and beverages.
Entering its fourth full year of operation, owned by the Cary Park District, Foxford Hills has matured and offers a pure golf experience, surrounded by the beauty of nature. Foxford Hills is a must play for all golfers.
