Description

Chanticlair is a private club in Colchester known for a quiet setting, a traditional parkland layout, and a strong local membership feel. The course routing is classic New England—tree-lined holes, subtle movement in the land, and greens that reward a proper angle more than sheer distance. It’s the type of place where familiarity pays off; members who know the safe sides and preferred targets can score, while first-timers can get surprised by how quickly trouble appears. The club culture is generally understated and golf-forward, with a pace and atmosphere that fits regular play and member events. If you want “classic private Connecticut golf without the flash,” Chanticlair fits that lane well.

I play here weekly with friends. It’s a 9 hole course with a very interesting layout. The guys who own and run the place are very friendly. It is quite economical, the least expensive course of its type around. I’d be willing to pay a bit more for a round should they decide to improve the course by adding ball washers on each hole, repairing the cart paths etc. There’s even an island green where, the other day, I shot my first hole in one in 50 yrs of playing this game on and off. So, Chanticlair will always be well remembered!

First time playing at Chanticlair yesterday, and can honestly say I was pleasantly surprised by the experience as a whole. Other than a few (very) bald tee-boxes, the course is in very good condition! On-course amenities: 8.5/10 — There are plenty of trash bins scattered around for easy and convenient trash disposal, as well as ball washing stations. The carts come equipped with divot-filler canisters, which I haven’t seen very often on CT courses.. but ours were empty. Wasn’t the end of the world, we had no trouble fixing our divots and ball-marks ourselves. Off-course amenities: 8/10 — Unfortunately, there’s no restaurant or kitchen attached to the establishment itself, so no food; however, they offer canned beverages and one-serving size snacks. Perfect for taking a quick break and grabbing a beer between 9’s. I was told there is a restaurant close-by, which is highly recommended by the staff. Speaking of Staff: 10/10 — Every single staff member I briefly spoke to was more than courteous about absolutely everything and anything. Checking into my tee-time was quick and easy. Most courses I’ve personally been to have very strict, grumpy, and uninviting staff; but this course was quite the opposite. My partner and I had mistakingly parked our cart green-side, and instead of being scolded by staff for our mistake, we were very kindly asked to move the cart; no attitude, no eye-rolls, just simple and polite. Even the greens-keepers would smile and wave at us when we were passing through a hole they were currently working on. THIS is the kind of staff you want running your course. They maintain the rules of the course, without being overbearingly strict. Course layout: 9/10 — VERY fun and interesting holes. 4th hole is an island green, which was my personal favorite. The feeling of sticking an absolute dart within 10 ft of the pin, over water, is completely unmatched. The fairways are pretty wide and mostly straight, except maybe a couple doglegs.. so as long as you can hit the ball straight, I think you’ll enjoy this course a lot! Worth the price? Yeah, kinda! For me and my partner to play 18 holes (9 holes twice,) cart included, ran us about $100. Although I’m not sure why I was charged for 2 golfers with carts when me and my partner shared one. I’m guessing it’s the lack of customization within the GolfNow app; not by fault of the course / owners. Overall I rate this course an 8.8/10. Can definitely see myself taking the 30 minute drive to play here more often. Highly recommend trying it out for yourselves at least once!

Very disappointed with this course, started on hole 3 was not informed so the scorecard was pretty confusing, was told cart path only, but there’s like no cart paths, pretty confusing, was not told about this one part of the course was closed, one of the rangers who was off duty playing in front of us started screaming at us, yelling in the background that our simple mistake ruined his golf game? Screamed at us multiple times, didn’t see the 1ft sign towards the end of the hole, there should be a sign on the tee box ( which every tee box was destroyed and uneven). Probably won’t be returning although I feel the course itself has a lot of potential

Courses in pretty good shape. They're making some improvements. It's been a little wet lately so makeshift cart path only. Some of the greens are a bit rough but overall nice place to play.

9 hole course and reasonable value for money. Some fun holes, particularly #4 (tricky and pretty par 3). I liked that the holes were different and there were very few back and forth holes. Signage is non existent and course condition is not great, and look out for the mosquitoes!! I would go back if in the area again.
