Foxchase Golf Course

Reviewed By JerryE129 - Philadelphia, United States

DO NOT GOLF HERE !! Only because I am finding it harder to get a tee time.... LOL More people from the Philadelphia and suburban areas, like myself are driving out to Fox Chase Golf Course for a few reasons. You get the country club feel and rates that are AWESOME. This is one of the BEST layouts for a public course and the place is extremely well maintained. Wide Open in some places and perfect in others, and challenging. This is a very highly recommend golf course. Having Golf Skate Carts are a total Plus. Well stocked Pro Shop and GREAT STAFF. Well worth the hour plus drive.....Guaranteed. Just, book your tee time on the weekdays so I can play on the weekends...LOL Jerry Ehrlich from what is left of the Great City of Philadelphia
