This wooded course is very tight. The fairways are tree lined, and the small greens are fast. The terrain varies from flat to hilly, yet it is still easy to walk. This course was redesigned by Robert Trent Jones, Sr. in 1960. This club was originally founded in 1893 and has been listed by the USGA as one of the first 100 clubs established in the U.S. In addition, "GOLF Magazine" recognized it in their 1995 list of "The First 100 Clubs in America."

Difficulty, May 04, 2006

reviewer: Rutebeta Pie from Chinatown, New Fork

The whites play a fun challenging game for golfers in the high 80's to mid 90's. Good rules for kids, and rarely backed up play.

Golf experience, Apr 23, 2005

reviewer: Steve from Chicago, IL

I had one of the best golf experiences in CT at the Country Club of New Canaan. The course is exactly as posted, excellent greens, and challenging with tight fairways and troubling rough but fair. The staff is of the utmost level of professionalism who created a unique friendly experience that made me feel like a member when simply a guest. The management and staff understand how to make a golfer feel special and have a great golf experience.

Good but not great, May 30, 2004

reviewer: johnny samuels from boston

This is a tight course with 2 very interesting par 5's, but it not a great course and it is too short to be considered a championship course.

Greeley Country Club
"Kept in great shape"
The Greeley country club plays difficult because of all the tree's this course has. The Greeley country club is a very kept up course that can be a challenging for any golfer.

"Dutch"
A tremendous couse in a beautiful mountain setting, especially in September and October when in full fall foliage, the afternoon temperatures in the low 70's and the skies so blue the horizon lines become razor sharp. The back nine challange you with mountain streams, blind doglegs, an occasional buck jumping from a creek bed and or lofty tee boxes daring you to choose a loftier iron for dropping it between the aspens and the traps.... Not too many courses in the world offer better views, thinner air for longer drives, or nicer people to pamper your needs. July through mid October is prime... take plenty of time and the closest of friends, I guarantee you a memorable experiance and a challanging round!

"First time golfer"
First course I played since getting into golf, played 11 times. Lots of hazards and had fun playing. Would still be there except 60 par can't help building my handycap. A little costly for a exec course and for a new golfer, for the same or less you can play full 72.

"Great Greens"
New course design and rebuild has made it one of the best in the area. You will not find greens any more beautiful. True, fast and just beautiful. I also love the changes they have made to 12, 13, 17. One of my favorite tracks.
