I reserved my tee time online. When I arrived I learned my group would be following a "ladies tournament event". After playing (and then waiting) for 5+ hours we left the golf course without completing our round.

I'm all good if the club wants to have a tournament, but they should provide a buffer in their tee sheet so other groups don't get stuck behind some incredibly slow players. Or at least put a notice on their website indicating there is a tournament in the morning - so let the golfer beware!

I probably won't be returning to Fox Hopyard for fear of another slow round. It's just not fun!

We play this course at least twice a year and have for many years. This week we had 7 golfers and played on Monday, August 24, 2020. The course was in terrible condition. I called the pro shop several days in advance and was told the course had some burn out. The description of "some burn out" vastly understated the conditions of the course. Fairways and greens were very, very bad. We were told the course was not able to water greens and fairways for 5 days after losing power from intense storms that hit that area of Connecticut weeks prior.
Disappointing that the course was not forthcoming with an honest review of the course condition. We travelled 1 hour to play this course and the price of $99 was way, way too much.

This course is in abysmal condition. What little live grass on the tee boxes is crab grass. Dead grass on every hole. Poorly maintained greens.

They appear to have given up on the place.
