Billy Casper Golf and Morningstar Golf and Hospitality lead a partnership group that has acquired Fox Hollow Golf Club in Branchburg, N.J.
New ownership plans to commit significant resources to enhance course conditions, personable service and a full slate of activities for beginner, intermediate and highly-skilled golfers.
The semi-private Fox Hollow features an 18-hole, 6,371-yard, par-70 layout rife with elevation changes. Originally designed by Hal Purdy, once a construction supervisor for Robert Trent Jones, Sr., the course was completely re-modeled in 2000. It is augmented by a driving range with 20 grass tees and a bunkered practice green and spacious putting green. Private and group lessons are conducted by PGA professionals.
Individual, junior and corporate memberships are available, and greens and cart fees are reasonably priced. In addition to hosting special events, the clubhouse boasts a well-established restaurant with majestic views of the golf course.
The first of many community outreaches is to grow family participation, and Fox Hollow is offering free golf to children with a paid adult after 3 p.m. daily.
“Fox Hollow represents a unique opportunity to combine complimentary resources of two leading course owner-operators,” said Peter Hill, Chairman and CEO of Billy Casper Golf. “The result will be an even higher satisfaction among members and public golfers.”
“Beautiful vistas, rolling topography and some of the best holes in central New Jersey define Fox Hollow—it’s a gem,” said Matt Galvin, President and CEO of Morningstar. “Billy Casper Golf’s marketing prowess and infrastructure, and Morningstar’s local presence and hands-on involvement, will elevate Fox Hollow’s attraction locally and regionally.”
Through association with the combined management team, Fox Hollow members now enjoy special opportunities to play Royce Brook Golf Club in Hillsborough, N.J., Cranbury Golf Club in Windsor, N.J., The Shore Club in Spring Lake, N.J., and The Shawnee Inn & Golf Resort in Shawnee on Delaware, Pa.
