Description

Shennecossett in Groton is a highly regarded public course with deep history and a distinctive seaside/New England character. The layout is known for being both scenic and strategically demanding, with a mix of classic design elements and coastal influence that can make the same hole play very differently depending on wind. It’s a true full-length public test where smart course management matters—misses in the wrong spots can leave tough recoveries and force conservative play. Because of its reputation, it draws golfers from beyond the immediate area, but it still has a strong local muni identity at its core. Overall, Shennecossett is one of Connecticut’s standout public courses: historic, scenic, and legitimately challenging in a way that rewards disciplined shot-making.

A beautiful course on a beautiful day... too bad my game wasn't beautiful! That said, I had 2 great playing partners and a good time. I thought the greens were fairly fast following a good rain. Much of the course is like playing on a carpet! So thick and lush. Kudos to the greens keeping crew! Friendly staff, reasonable prices, what else can you ask for?

If I could give it zero stars I would. The course is in horrible shape compared to any other course I played. The best part of the place is the bar where the staff was excellent. The pro-shop person could not have been any ruder. When you pay $85 for a senior round and get horrible service, poor course conditions and a place that needs a lot of maintenance, I would not recommend this place at all. Pass.

Aside from the fact that the greens were in good shape, this place is a dog track. $85 for a Saturday round was preposterous. To top it off was the less than friendly person I had the displeasure of having to deal with at check in. Will never play here again!

Shennecossett is the best! The course was firm, fast and played as it was designed to play. One of the best public courses in the state, especially for the price. Overall great place to play and excellent staff. You can never go wrong with a round here.

Busy busy day before rain forecast so we couldn’t finish our 18 but we did drive the cart the unfinished last 7 holes. #16 view is a beautiful water view so don’t miss it. Tee box and greens can be close so mind the group behind you. Lots of bunkers in the fairways keep it challenging.
