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

Weekends are slow
Paid a decent price with the GN discount. Conditions of course were fair with many greens having bare spots. Tee boxes were chunky and not level. This was not the first time I played a +5 hr round. There were no rangers to be seen. Carts were nice and people were friendly.

Always a pleasure
I don’t remember if I rated this course before, but I always enjoy playing it. Great conditions, as always.
This course is a gem. Donald Ross design so putt well.
The firs hole is as inviting an opening hole as I’ve ever seen. Not to say its an easy course, but its an easy course to play into. There are no holes that are unfair, and there are very few holes that are birdie-grabbers.
I don’t know how the city of Norwich is able to maintain this course, but good for them.
One of my favorite courses. I play it 5-6 times a year and it has never disappointed
