Overview

The Patterson Club dates to 1929, when General Electric Co. employees organized a Dining and Social Club with 20 charter members. The Robert Trent Jones Sr. designed course opened nearly 20 years later in 1947 on a new site in Fairfield, Conn. Today, the course is one of the best in the area, having hosted the state’s Open and Amateur, as well as numerous Metropolitan Golf Association events. The course makes captivating use of the elevation changes, including at the up-and-over finishing hole, where a speed slot can add 40 yards to a well-placed drive.

“Renovation a couple of years ago really opened up the course. Patterson has lots of different looks, uphill, downhill, doglegs right and left. The par-3s stand out now. With many trees gone, the vistas are beautiful."

“Private club in excellent condition but boring layout. Once you play the course, it is not very memorable to repeat. Wouldn't go out of your way to play this course."
