“An interesting Seth Raynor-A.W. Tillinghast design on the Connecticut shoreline, C.C. of Fairfield features a flat layout at sea level with a number of unique holes playing on the waterways. This includes the stretch of 4-6 which you really won't see anywhere else and the memorable par 5 10th playing downhill as a dogleg right. While not my favorite from these architects, C.C. of Fairfield has to be one of the top 5 courses in Connecticut and is well-worth a play if given the opportunity."

“This is an utter gem. It has really good Raynor holes, wonderful views of LI Sound and Southport, and sometimes enough wind to ruffle your feathers. Don't miss the chance...if you get one; the club is very private."

“One of the best in the state. Classic linksy layout with almost no trees. Some very challenging par 3s"

“Only feels like a Raynor on a few holes, but the course is plenty interesting, especially on the front nine. Great setting!"

“I'd argue this course, though ranked by most all publications, still doesn't get the love it deserves. Recent bunker and green work have Raynor's creativity alive again."
