Good spot overall. Please excuse my "string of comments" review format, but here we go…read more... Some challenging holes, nice wooded areas along edges, but a lot is kept fairly clear. The fairways were generally pretty good, while the greens were nice and smooth and seemed less challenging than most. Traps seemed nice and sandy with easy out potential for those who are more capable than me (I suck out of the sand regardless of the condition). Tee boxes were also generally very nice condition. The cart was average (perfectly suitable, albeit sluggish), yardage markers were OK, but are the flush kind that you have to hunt down to figure out your remaining yardage. The club house was nice, prices fair, and bathrooms clean. They have a nice practice area and driving range for warming up (assuming you have time and don't show up last minute like I always seem to...). I was also pleased with the parking, which is away from any final approaches (no concern of your car being hit). The three employees I interacted with (lady at food counter, man collecting greens fees, and young man driving range cart around collecting trash from tee boxes) were all very pleasant. Important note, I didn't notice a beverage cart, so plan accordingly or at least plan on grabbing something at the turn. I'll play here again given the opportunity.

Excellent layout. Very good conditions…read more Super nice people / staff. Terrific practice facilities. Tremendous value / rates. Great snack bar & clubhouse. All that said, our round took 5+ hours today, with waits of 5-20 mins on every tee, making the day much less enjoyable than it should have been for such a beautiful and fun golf course. Suggestion: Change tee time spacing to 10 mins, and/or send rangers out to encourage faster play. Thanks, and we'll be back sometime, just not in the immediate future.

I was grateful to attend Tumble Brook Country Club in Bloomfield CT …read more It was set out to be an elaborate dinner for a party of 100. Not sure if their holding hot box did not hold proper temperature but all hot food came out lukewarm. The duck with parsnip purer was mediocre at best . The duck was not browned off enough and came out warm . Parsnip puree was excellent flavor but also cold . The vichyssoise soup was very lite to no leeks at all . Thank god it was served cold like it was supposed to be . The pollack was supposed to be halibut filet but we received some other mystery fish that was non digestible . It did have a very nice thermadore sauce that was on point . Again, it was all served cold with some rice pilaf that was NOT pilaf and 3 haricot vert beans that were peeled . Then the salad , it arrived cold as it should have Belgium Endive filled with blue cheese . The frisée did not help the dish along with the raspberry coulis , it was a raspberry coulis . Several components missing . The salad needed work . Then came the petite Filet Mignon ( cold) with an instant red sauce reduction of some sort that was cheated , baby carrots were good but cold & the French cut potato -all cold . The lemon sorbet was good , topped with a fresh raspberry with a brown sugar crust on the rim . The dessert course was vanilla ice cream with a pignoli tart . The icream of good quality creamy , tart was a bit dry and looking for the pignoli nuts . This was supposed to be a French Dining experience honor the father of cookery - George August Escoffier. Wine was paired with each course - some were winners and others were mediocre at best . Service was excellent , cocktail hour was on the money , the selection of seafood on ice was a winner , carving station of veal loin , pork loin with choice of sauces was very well executed . The passed horduurves were all very well done . The Italian charcuterie of cold cuts and cheeses were very good and displayed nicely . The gulf shrimp were perfect size and peeled - U-15 shrimp are always a home run . I don't do oysters - too much risk involved in oyster consumption. Please bring a flashlight as the parking lot at night has NO LGHTS . Good luck finding your car . Recommend going back and giving them a second chance. It is a hidden gem .

My wife and I scheduled a meeting with "Ines" who is the event planner and "David" who is the head chef for their events. They helped us coordinate exactly what we needed and the event went off without a hitch! (it was a reception for about 70 guests.) The room was decorated tastefully, the food was outstanding and the overall service was an 11 out of 10! The view of the golf course wasn't bad either! Thanks to Ines, David and the entire TB C/C staff! Kevin & Debbie M.

We just had our wedding there and I cannot thank them or rave about them enough…read more Everyone from the wedding has been talking to us and messaging us about how amazing you all were. From the venue itself, the staff (seriously the best!), the views, all of it.

Never seen 80 filet mignon come out perfectly like they did here. Special shoutout to our personal waitress who seriously was there every second for us, thank you! Please know if you book here, you will not regret it.

You know anytime a property hosts the game of golf, it is immediately elevated so many levels of classy! The parking lot is plentiful and spacious. The inside is separated into two event spaces. The large windows overlooking the men in their zone, on the beautifully manicured, striped grass was a welcome sight. The food was buffet style, all of it looked tasty. I had and enjoyed the salmon and the salad. There was a self serve table with coffee, tea, lemonade and orange juice. A different table had wine and mimosas. The whole layout was very easy to navigate. The restrooms were just around the corner and were super clean. Everyone had a wonderful time. There were plenty of personal details that were added to reflect the bride to be. If you're looking for a beautiful venue to host your next special event, look into the Wethersfield Country Club.

The food was amazing and everything we worked so hard to accomplish was realized. The guests all had a great time and our DJ also make the evening very special. All of this was made possible by our sponsor Linda who is a member and our travel agent. I can not say enough about Linda and how great she is as our travel agent and friend. My father in his mid 80's got up and danced several times. This tells you something about the atmosphere that evening. The venue was charming and offered its rich history as well as it decor to bear on what made the evening so special. A very special thanks goes out to Emilia a new staff member at the club. Emilia was our point of contact for the event and did an outstanding job of making sure everything was perfect. The attention to detail and accommodating our every wish was executed flawlessly. All of this made my Lisa, the birthday girl literally glow from how happy she was with everything.

On Memorial Day my wife, older son and I had a great experience golfing at Twin Hills. Twin Hills…read moreis where I learned how to play over 25 years ago . I believe over the last couple years it's under new ownership and management. It definitely shows the course is well maintained and greens are in great shape. There is a nice clubhouse with a great selection of craft type beers to enjoy . The third hole is my favorite one. It's the hardest hole with water in front of the green. Someday my goal is to at least boogie it . Lol. Had a awesome experience and will definitely return. Golf is a game of etiquette , I know all are welcome but my only negative comment would be a pair of golfers with one wearing athletic type gym shorts the other with wind type pants. Come on guys step it up and keep it classy. If you are looking for a fun well maintained course check out Twin Hills .

Ridiculous pace of play, ridiculous managing, absolute waste of time and $$$. Course is mediocre…read moreat best, no ranger, no clue how to run a course. Course is not only based on conditions, but managing pace of play. Got there 40 min prior to check in. Was there and some group showed up at their tee time, not 10 min / 5 min, but at their exact tee time and still were not ready to tee off yet the course allowed them to go out anyways. What did this group do? They took their fuhking time, jacking up pace of play, holding up everyone, just complete losers. They had clearly (2) to (3) holes in front of them and the course put a single out the back nine because these A-holes took their god damn time and then this single jacked up the original jack offs. This course is a stain on the golfing community and I will not ever step foot at this course and employ others to do the same.

This is my first time here! This place is called "The Hollow." It is located in the Manchester…read moreCountry Club. It is open to the public. When you come in, it is down the stairs going down to the left. I like the view of the lake! This place is clean, has a lot of space, friendly employees and nice, traditional rock music that is set at the right sound level. They have an ALL DAY Happy Hour from Sunday - Thursday! That's unheard of. For my first drink, I'm having a Cosmopolitan. This is very good! It's a bit lighter than normal and not as strong, but I like it! A cosmopolitan, or informally a cosmo, is a cocktail made with vodka (Benedict's here), Cointreau, cranberry juice, and freshly squeezed or sweetened lime juice. For my first food item, I'm having the "Chef Salad." This is huge! For $7?! What a deal! It came out pretty quick. The bartender says there portion sizes are pretty big for Happy Hour. He got that right! It's healthy and low carb too. Vegetables are crisp. This is not a common item you see on a Happy Hour menu! Omg is this good ! Chef salad (or chef's salad) is an American salad consisting of hard-boiled eggs, one or more varieties of meat (such as ham, turkey, chicken, or roast beef), tomatoes, cucumbers, and cheese, all placed upon a bed of tossed lettuce or other leaf vegetables. Several early recipes also include anchovies. A variety of dressings may be used with this salad. I've made the claim I can down 7 items on the food menu. Let's see! For my next food item, I'm having Geno's Meatballs. This is actually the owner's (Geno) grandmother's recipe! These are fantastic! Beautiful presentation! For my next drink, I'm having the Margarita. This is nice! Sour mix is fresh. It tastes good and has nice presentation! For my next food item, I'm having the Traditional Deviled Eggs . These are great! The dish is cold and has great presentation! These are delicious ! Next up, I'm having the Bogner's Chili Cheese Dog. I haven't had a good hot dog in a long time! Here's the Bogner story: "William Bogner Sr. and his wife Helen migrated from Italy to New York in 1925. William began working for Hebrew National and other sausage facilities perfecting his craft. Moving to Manchester Connecticut with his new family (sons William Jr, and Donald) he built by hand his slaughter house. William and his family worked the slaughterhouse selling fresh beef to local meat processors. Making sausages and wine became a passion. Friends and family would often come over to eat and drink the home made vino and sausages. In 1965 sons William Jr and Donald built their meat processing plant on Wetherell Street Manchester and used their fathers recipes to make sausage products still made today. William Jr. sons Kurt, Robert, & David bought the business in 1992 and also acquired Stanleys Nutmeg Brand & Angellina Sausage company. When two large local meat company's (Union Meat& Lewis Beef) ceased operations the Bogners hired their butchers and took over their marquee accounts. This enabled Bogners to become a full line center of the plate specialist that still exist today. Our burger blends and cuts of meat are made to our customer specifications with quick turn time. This allows operators to free up capitol from inventory and keep fresh product on hand. In 2002 the Bogners also expanded into the high end pet food business. With the same dedication to quality and customer service both businesses operate independently to this day." The couple next to me is raving about the food! They ordered the chips and guacamole and salsa, twin whiskey BBQ pork quesadillas and Buffalo cheddar tater tots. Next up, I'm having the Shrimp Cocktail. These are good! Nice size! Love the cocktail sauce, lemon squeeze and the bed of arugula. Next up, I'm having the Vodka Mule. This is really good! It has a [very] strong ginger taste! A Moscow mule is a cocktail made with vodka, ginger beer and lime juice, garnished with a slice or wedge of lime and a sprig of mint. The drink is a type of buck and is sometimes called a vodka buck. For my next [2] items, I'm having the McCooe's Burger Slider and the Crispy Chicken Slider. OMG ! Look at this presentation! Each comes standard with a pickle and chips. These are yummy! For dessert, I'm having the "Hollow Hot Fudge Sundae" made with Royal Vanilla ice cream, dark chocolate ganache (1/2 for me), spiced nuts and Luxardo cherries . Ganache is a glaze, icing, sauce, or filling for pastries, made from chocolate and cream. Perfect !!! This place is the bomb !
