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

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

need to do something about pace of play
took over 5 hours - course backed up on every hole - seemed like a few foursomes were way too slow
Decent course but terrible pace
First time here, conditions were fair..little damp but that’s due to weather. Tee’d off around 1130 and literally waited on line to tee off on holes 8-10. There was a group of 7 and another of 6 backing everyone up. Multiple groups including mine left before playing all 18. Decent place, but that was absurd.
No ranger
The best thing know which golf course could do to make it a better experience is to have a ranger on the course to keep people from ball hawking and looking for balls 20 minutes every hole a lot of people don't play golf because the five six hour rounds it takes to play they need to keep people moving and have them keep up with the group in front of them without a ranger that is impossible
Awful pace
Overall I enjoy this course and play it often, however lately the pace of play has been extremely bad. I've had multiple rounds over 4.5 hours. Today I started at 345 and finished at 9, struggling to see our drives on the last 3 holes. We saw a group of 8 people teeing off at one point. Needs more active rangers to keep pace up.
Maddening pace of place
I understand the Covid golf Craze that is happening. But this is ridiculous !
There is NO Marshell out on the course leaving You high and dry with patrons who DO NOT belong on a course like this.
A group of hackers with 3 holes open in front of them, held the entire course hostage.
We had to call it QUITS after 14 holes, for fear I would take my own life if I had to wait another 20 minutes before I hit my next shot.
Management HAS to get this under control!
Unfathomably Slow
I’ve never seen a slower course in my life. It took us 3+ hours to play 9.
I paid for 18 and bowed out after 9, that’s how bad it was. I told the rangers what a joke it was and they said “that’s how it is”. Unbearable.
