I like this course a lot. Super fun to play, super friendly staff…read more This is my first review of a golf course so I'm not sure how to approach it, but I'll give it a shot. First off, this is the same course that is often called "The Heights" or "Hubbard Heights" by people in the area, previous name I suppose. This course offers free green's fees to active duty military, as well as occasionally comp'ing the cart fee as well, which is completely awesome of them. The staff here overall is very friendly and helpful and I've never had a bad experience with any of them. They make every effort to make sure you enjoy your day. Next, on to the course itself. Not the best maintained course in the world, greens can be kinda iffy and the teeboxes are often a bit messed up. However, the course is really well designed and is really picturesque and naturey. We see deer and other critters here while playing all the time. Also, this course is one of my favorites to play, I love the variety of holes here and the flow is really nice. My personal favorite is the par 3 hole 3. Can't wait to head back now that the weather is starting to warm up.

For the amount of play this course gets, they do a fantastic job maintaining their greens. The…read morestaff is very friendly and pleasant to interact with. Not the longest course, but challenging enough for players of all skill levels.

I'm really fortunate that over the years I have enjoyed the golf course with my family. I always had a family member that had a Greenwich Country Club membership. I am invited when I visit Greenwich. Their membership is by invitation only. Naturally my favorite place is the dining room. I've enjoyed many delicious meals here. It's great for special occasions or after a day playing golf. The employees are professional and friendly. I always have a good experience and can't wait to return! If you have the opportunity to play golf here or enjoy a meal, I know you will agree. I'm recommending.

Once you finally pay, the clock starts ticking, yet they take another five minutes to set up the course and get the balls ready. The system never works properly with the tee, so you waste most of your playtime fixing it or chasing balls from one side to the other. On my last visit, the floor was actually slanted, not flat. When I complained, they took forever to fix it, but of course, the clock kept running. And to top it off, they charged me for going 15 minutes over the hour, even though that time was lost to their own setup issues and poor management. As a Little League coach who planned to bring families here, I can say confidently: we won't be back, and I can no longer recommend this place for team or family outings. It simply doesn't deserve our business anymore

One of the nicest, hardest-working men I've ever met. He built this business from nothing with just a little help from his friends when he was just a recent immigrant from South Korea. Our country could use more immigrants like him. So I can't understand the negative reviews. I guess one or two people have had bad experiences in this store, but they aren't typical and they don't reflect the philosophy and culture of the owner. I also read the store is closing. If so, I hope that means Mr.Lee has made enough to retire comfortably. He deserves it.

It's a nice place for picnics but the last time I was there they kicked people out right before sunset so I couldn't even enjoy the view.

My wife recently attempted to get out of her car in the parking lot and found it extremely slippery--unsafe to the point where she had to move her car to another area. Unfortunately, the conditions were just as bad throughout the lot. This is a basic safety issue that should not be overlooked. I reported the concern, expecting it would be taken seriously. Instead, her membership was canceled. While it was later reinstated, the initial response was surprising and, frankly, concerning. I then went to the facility to raise the issue directly with management. I approached the situation calmly, simply trying to point out that unsafe conditions in a parking lot could lead to someone getting hurt. The response I received was repeatedly being told to "get out," with no attempt to acknowledge or address the concern. At that point, it became clear that member safety and basic professionalism were not being handled the way they should be. I am no longer a member. I hope the business takes steps to address the parking lot conditions and improves how it responds to legitimate concerns in the future.

The main path through the sculpture gardens has gravel. We had no issues pushing a stroller. The grass is lush and immaculately mowed. It's perfect for laying out a blanket. The sculptures are unique and eye catching. The printed map doesn't have much detail about the art beyond the name of each piece and the sculptor. There are no placards with information either, so it's not very educational. Some of the trees and plants are labeled, so you get a bit of a botanical gardens experience as well. There were a few benches along the path, but most were not shaded. Great place for a stroll. You can easily get through it in an hour.
