What are the top public golf courses in Connecticut?
It depends who you ask. In the case of GolfPass' annual Golfers Choice ranking lists, you are the expert, along with thousands of your fellow golfers.
We compile our annual Golfers' Choice lists by analyzing the ratings and reviews submitted by members of our community - golfers like you - throughout the previous year. We use GolfPass' Ratings Index logic that weights newer reviews and combine it with a course's subcategory averages. Courses must offer public access and have received at least three reviews in 2023 to be eligible for this year's list. If you want to play any of these courses, hover your browser over the course photo and if tee times are available, you can click to book directly.

Manchester Country Club
Green fee: $75
What they're saying: "Loved the course. Pace of play was due to a threesome not understand course etiquette. Basically, had to wait on every shot, and we were a foursome. Ended up barely finishing, in the dark." - mikejes -
Tallwood Country Club
Green fee: $34
What they're saying: "A very nice course. A windy and cold day. The only negative was the sand traps did not drain well ... very wet and full of water since it rained the day before. A good challenging course." - u8779623 -
Twin Hills Country Club
Green fee: $44
What they're saying: "Overall we were very happy with our day. Only issue was the bunkers - rock hard and seemed like they hadn't been tended to in quite some time (which was surprising given how great the condition of everything else was). Will definitely be back again." - u420815532 -
Norwich Golf Club
Green fee: $54
What they're saying: "I enjoyed the course layout and overall presentation of (the) course. (The) greens were well kept, as well as the amenities on site. Course layout is beautiful and be sure to catch a sunset on the 17th hole!" - Maverick1993 -
Jones at Lyman Orchards Golf Club
Green fee: $95
What they're saying: "Great when you can find a good deal on GolfNow, not for retail of $90 or whatever they’re charging these days. Expect slow play on the front. (It) opens up on the back. Well manicured course, (and a) good layout." - GolfPass reviewer -
Crestbrook Park Golf Course
Green fee: $43
What they're saying: "You will have a enjoyable round of golf and get to use all your clubs. Greens are tricky at times and break a lot more than the look!! The course is in great shape for this time of year with the leaves under control and everything still green! I don't care what your age is the greens are in great shape, (please) take the time to fix your ball mark. I always fix lazy people's marks as I'm waiting to putt!" - GolfPass reviewer -
Mohegan Sun Golf Club
What they're saying: "This is one of the few resort courses in New England that has actually made a meaningful investment and improvement in their course. Definitely one of CT best public courses" - ThomasGram
-
Richter Park Golf Course
Green fee: $85
What they're saying: "Great staff. Course was in great shape. The rain was coming, which put the staff into high gear with the prep of the course and greens." u314164641955 -
Whitney Farms Golf Club
Green fee: $50
What they're saying: "Tee boxes were in rough shape but rest of the course was beautiful. Greens were perfect. All the leaves were raked away. Ponds were gorgeous. Pace of play was about right. Fun day. I'll definitely be back in the Spring." - u672267841 -
Gillette Ridge
Green fee: $60
What they're saying: "Great value! Price is fantastic for a course of this caliber. Too bad people don't fix ball marks! Nice layout of holes. Keeps your attention. Staff is great & bar is pretty well stocked. I drove 1 1/2 hours to get there and well worth it!" - bobs0327
