Fox Hopyard Golf Club

A BRUCE WHITTIER

This is merely and update regarding our 2021 Safari Club Adventure was even more spectacular than the last time we visited. Course is in GREAT shape and your pro, Eddie White, as well as the complete staff, we absolutely a delight to work with. The Safari Club of Golf had its inaugural adventure to Fox Hopyard on September 4. With well over one-hundred of our members in attendance we can all rate the experience right up there with the best! Unfortunately, the greens had recently been punched, but management made us aware of that fact going into the event. But we had that one date available and decided to proceed anyway. Maybe one of the best decisions we made in a long time. Heck, anyone with even a modicum of golf sense realizes punching greens is one of those necessary evils that all courses face this time of year. However, just the layout and facilities themselves leave one in awe of this place. Panoramic views abound all while playing 18 spectacular holes of golf that consist of many traditional New England style holes, coupled with some European links style holes to boot. You kind of get a two-fer when playing this spectacular golf course. Many of our members already expressed their desire in having Fox Hopyard included on our regular Safari Club Adventures for next season. That kind of sums things up pretty well.

A couple of weeks ago, we played Fox Hopyard with the Safari Club of Massachusetts and it was in fantastic shape. It was our first time playing there and although not an easy course, it was very playable and the holes were all very interesting. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The golf carts were the best carts we used all year. After the round, we enjoyed some adult beverages and sandwiches in the well appointed club house. We can’t wait to go back again next year, hopefully, more than once. We highly recommend giving Fox Hopyard a try. You won’t regret it. Jim G.

My BF golfed here on Friday, June 18, 2021 and I just rode along in the cart. I asked him to give his review because I feel like there were a lot of negative reviews that were no longer applicable. The Tee boxes and greens in good condition, greens recently aerated, greens ran true. GPS on carts sometimes wacky saying get out of the woods when you’re actually on the cart path and all you can do is go in reverse at that point but maybe they were working out the kinks. A little pricey, but quick efficient check in and a super friendly starter and all in all a really nice course. The starter did mention they had a hurricane last fall that left them without power for one and a half weeks and that could explain a lot of the poor reviews last fall of people stating that the greens were burnt out etc. But it all looks pretty good now so give it a try!

Fox Hopyard was a beautiful course with a challenging layout. Definitely a remote destination but worth the drive (especially in the fall). This course is not for beginners however, many of the holes require longer carry even for women and senior tees.
