The third, a dogleg left of 376, typifies most of the holes on this course: not long, but challenging in other ways. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/13/2022

Seven ( # 3 index) seems like one of the best par-4’s in Connecticut. This photo doesn’t reveal just how tough it is to make a par here. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/13/2022

Eleven is another great hole, its protected green seen here in the shadows. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/13/2022

Twelve, another challenging par-5, plays downhill and through the woods. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/13/2022

Green six is fronted by a daunting, frontal bunker with a high lip. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/22/2020

The tenth hole’s green is set fairly close to, but below, New London Turnpike. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/22/2020

This sprawling bunker flanking the right side of hole 11 is typical of the challenges abounding on these eighteen. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/22/2020

The fourteenth green, at 560 yards, will take two Herculean shots to reach in two, but anything less may find its way into the small brook before it. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/22/2020

Underrated
Norwich GC is probably one of the most underrated courses in the area. It's a challenging but fun layout. Lots of elevation change keeps it exciting.
Major improvements
Since I last played this course about five years ago, Norwich has put a lot of money into upgrading this hidden gem. The greens roll true and fast as well as the fairways and tee boxes being tidy and well-groomed. Also, it was exactly 4 hours and 10 minutes for our round. I recommend this course as it is great layout with many different holes requiring lots of different shots and club selections.
Very Impressed
Very solid track with interesting and scenic holes. Greens were in excellent shape. The real standout though was the staff. Every single person I encountered from pro shop to starter was incredibly friendly and helpful. It was very refreshing and appreciated!
Basic...
Its alright. Not a fan of hilly CT / Mass courses. No flat lies off tee box into fairway. Easy layout. Good for beginners.
Very clean and in good shape all around
Very happy with course i only ask they keep water on deck. Pro shop doesn't carry water and bar had closed early or maybe not open on Sundays
Great Muni
First time I played this course. Enjoyed it. I would come back,
Fees have increased. Course not so much
This course is not worth the new outrageous green fee of $70+..
While there have been numerous cosmetics of new trees, new bridge and finally replacing the COVID disappearing ball washers.
Still the ball washers have no water and the washer handle pulls entirely out of the base. Sand traps are still rock quarries and pace of play has improved slightly. But I believe pace improved because it cost so much.
Golfer getting gouged again.
The course was in excellent shape
Course was flawless and well kept. The pace of play was perfect.
pretty good
pretty good condition, greens a bit bumpy from aeration
