The 5th. Par-4, 333. Classic drive-and-pitch hole, reflecting the links flavor of many Wintonbury holes. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 10/14/2021
-
7th. Par-3, 255. As seen from tee eight, a threesome engaged in play around the green. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 10/14/2021

11. Par-4, 433. A brute that takes no prisoners, and straight uphill from tee to green. Well, you can enjoy the fall scenery, anyway. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 10/14/2021

The twelfth, a downhill par-3 of 168, gives you a slight breather on a back nine that supplies little respite. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 10/14/2021

Henry sets up for his tee shot at 14. An avid and fine golfer, he hit it down the middle on this hauntingly beautiful golf hole. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 10/14/2021

Five is a short but strategic four-par of 333. Beautiful vistas abound on this course. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 10/28/2020

The downhill 7th, a three-par of 255. Dye believed that long three-pars were the only holes to induce low-handicappers to hit long irons. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 10/28/2020

The Reverse Redan 9th, a 190-yard par-three, features a well-fortified green complex. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 10/28/2020

Conclusion to an uphill five-par of 551: the thirteenth green. A Bloomfield reservoir lies below. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 10/28/2020

The fourteenth looks amazing even at twilight, but it’s an unforgiving par-4 of 455. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 10/28/2020

18 hole
The course was in excellent condition. I would advise taking a cart, walking is possible but hills are involved.
The greens are challenging but enjoyable.

Hidden Gem!
I lived and golfed in the area for 2 years and never heard of this Gem! So glad I was paired with an awesome member who guided us on each hole and green, otherwise it would have been extremely difficult, but fun, course.

Great course
We played after a ton of rain so it was cart path only. Course played as if it hadn’t rained. Fairways are like greens. I love this place.

Starter
The Starter Gentlemen was very very rude to us are tee time was at 12:10 Thursday the 13th there were 4 of us he actually told us numerous times not to go on the green til our tee time, then he came with his cart and kept on eye on us to make sure with did not tee off before our time. We’ve been playing golf for many many years and played at your golf course many many times it’s a beautiful course I enjoy playing there with my son and my 2 nephews and this gentlemen should not be working there I’ve never experienced anything like it.

Always a good round
The course is in an amazing condition right now. Greens are fast and in great shape. Don’t miss the fairway, the rough will get you in trouble even if you miss by a yard or two. Staff is always friendly and keep things moving. My only complaint is they are understaffed which took away some enjoyment and they really missed out on revenue not having a cart girl out there on a hot Friday afternoon. Also only one girl working the bar and obviously was overwhelmed. Hopefully they will get that together as the season moves on. Will be back.
