If you love golf and stunning scenery, we have the perfect place for you: Fox Run Golf Club, located in Ludlow, Vermont. Incorporating the best of the natural beauty from the Green Mountains and the Okemo Valley, the club attracts visitors from all over New England and beyond.
Each of the 18 holes has difficult, natural elements that highlight the breathtaking mountainside terrain. The greens are undulating and fast, utilizing all golfers’ skills, talent, ability, and competence. Fox Run’s greens, multiple tee areas and fairways are all bent grass. Fox Run also has a 9,200-square-foot clubhouse with locker rooms and a well-stocked pro shop stocked with the newest and most innovative equipment, fashionable and functional apparel – including the popular brand, Vineyard Vines.
Mountain golf in New England comes with a hard constraint that shapes everything a club can offer: the playing season runs roughly from May through October, leaving half the year unplayable. That is why the indoor simulator, the restaurants, and the planned inn matter as much as the course itself. A property that can only generate revenue five months a year faces a very different business than one in Florida or Arizona, and the additions described below are as much about filling the calendar as expanding the amenities.
For beginners and seasoned golfers looking to improve their game, Fox Run has the best training facility in the region. Their pro, Mark Senecal, leads small classes, clinics and individual instruction. A four-hole practice course allows new golfers and families to get a feel for the game by playing shorter holes, while also allowing more seasoned players to work on various skills.
The driving range is one of the most scenic and well-kept in New England. It is 6 acres in size and offers golfers the opportunity to practice on grass tees or mats. They have a putting green, a pitching area, and several manicured practice bunkers in their chipping area. During the winter and inclement weather, they have an indoor golf simulator and an indoor practice putting green where participants can virtually play more than 20 courses. Golfers can compete with their friends on some of the best courses in the world (Pebble Beach, Pinehurst, Troon, Harbour Town, Bay Hill, Torrey Pines, and others). The Golf Simulator is an excellent tool for practicing or playing golf. Stroke, skins, or match play for four teams of up to four players each.
New Field of Games includes Family Fun course, Golf for beginners, Bocce courts, horseshoe pits, and corn-hole toss.
An overlook deck with scenic views of the Okemo Mountain is a perfect place for a private event. With food prepared under the supervision of Culinary Star, Andew Molen, be prepared to be wowed.
Businessman Troy Caruso bought the resort in April 2021 and immediately began improving the facilities, from new GPS-tracked golf carts to a total renovation of the restaurant Calcuttas, which includes a bar, full-service restaurant, and a patio. After a round of golf, golfers can relax with a glass of wine, live music, and a delicious meal. On the patio, guests can enjoy the firepits and take in the amazing views of the golf course and Okemo Mountain. Lunch is available as well.
This past summer a breakfast food truck was added to Fox Run. When they start airing, NFL games will be broadcast each Sunday at Calcuttas.
Troy Caruso just acquired two other restaurants in Ludlow, including Mr Darcy Bar and Burger (which serves locally sourced Wagu beef from Vermont) along with Off the Rails pizzeria, all under the direction of his culinary director, Andrew Molen.
Fox Run is also renovating a thirty-three room inn that should be open by 2023, as well as wedding facilities that can accommodate large weddings. Those seeking accommodation in the interim near Fox Run in Ludlow Vermont please contact Foxrun for AirBnB availability.
Their goal, with meticulous attention to detail, is to create a club that members will be proud of. Come to Fox Run Club and find why is had been noticed as one of the best new courses and most scenic courses by both Golf Week and Golf Digest.
