Wintonbury Hills Golf Course

I would not waste your time with the dining operation, after the round. Too restrictive. Masks while sitting there and nobody around you? Sorry, I’ll go somewhere else for post round drink. But the course was great.

Great course. Typical Pete Dye design. My new to go course when looking in the HFD area...can’t beat it.

Have played course twice in 2 weeks. The weather was great. Can not complain. They lowered the cups in with the foam noodles so you could make putts.

Only issue I thought was just it was wet in certain spots.

Had to drive about 1 hour 45 minutes to get there, but it was well worth the 210 minutes. The Course staff were taking the necessary precautions; while being cordial at the same time. I played with nice guys from NY, and NH. Challenging course, at least for me. Beautiful scenes also. I think I caught a glimpse of a lighthouse on the back 9.

Thought I had scored a nice tee time around noon to play this course. Seems like a consensus top 5 public course in CT. Due to Covid and the course, I was willing to drive 3 hours to get there. Just needed to scratch that golf itch. Was on the road for an hour when I get an email stating my tee time was cancelled. Completely screwed me over. No idea why they didn’t email me when they opened. Was well into my trip and suddenly I was scrambling for a tee time anywhere in Connecticut.

There are great options out there to “keep us safe” that are far superior to raised cups

Perfect Covid adherence. Course in great shape other than greens being top dressed, and even with that they still rolled well and weren’t slow. Good layout except 4 holes are very similar, and the par 3 were all same length except for 17. I certainly recommend and will be back

Always one of the better public courses in the area. Cups inverted and tee times spaced out for coronavirus. Also walking only. Was able to play in 3:15 early in morning.

Love the course. Can't wait to go back with my girlfriend. Not a long course but fun and challenging.

I love this golf course and have frequently traveled from Albany NY to play this layout. I recently called for a tee time and inquired about carts due to the virus. I can only assume the booking service for tee times is a third party vendor. I received a condescending lecture on the dangers of the virus when I asked about carts, possible accommodations for handicapped players and Seniors. Staff like this leaves a real sour impression. I pass the Ranch ( an excellent course) on my way to Wintonbury, Hills in the future I think I will just stop there.

About You

For the money the course was in terrible shape. Greens really shaggy and bumpy.

Recently played this course after not playing it for several years. It was always a destination course for me, great layout, fast and true greens and all around a fabulous course. Played it today and was totally shocked at how bad it has become, horrible fairways (dry patches everywhere, half brown and thin grass. The greens were equally bad, rough and patchy as well, and they charged 72 dollars to play! Whatever is going on there I will certainly not return for a re-play.
