About this course

Fairview Farm Golf Course occupies rolling countryside in Harwinton, a rural town in Litchfield County in northwestern Connecticut. The course was designed by Dick Christian and Bob Ferraroti, who worked together on several New England layouts during the latter decades of the twentieth century. The design takes advantage of natural terrain features common to this part of Connecticut, incorporating elevation changes and wooded corridors into a routing that reflects the region's agricultural heritage. The course plays across former farmland, and the property retains some of the open, pastoral character typical of Litchfield County's landscape. The routing moves through a mix of open and tree-lined holes, with fairways that follow the land's natural contours. Elevation shifts create variety in approach shots and provide views across the surrounding countryside. Water features and strategic bunkering define several holes, requiring golfers to navigate both natural and designed hazards. Fairview Farm serves as an accessible public facility in a region known more for its private clubs and resort courses. The course attracts local players and visitors exploring northwestern Connecticut's golf offerings, providing a straightforward test of golf in a setting that reflects the area's rural character. The layout offers a traditional New England golf experience without the formality or exclusivity associated with some of the state's older establishments.

Getting there

Fairview Farm Golf Course sits in the rolling farmland of northwestern Connecticut, most easily reached via Bradley International Airport (BDL) near Hartford, roughly forty-five minutes south, or via the smaller Waterbury-Oxford Airport (OXC) for a more direct approach from the northeast corridor. The drive north from either hub carries you through the gentle Connecticut countryside, past stone walls and working farms, as the landscape gradually shifts from suburban sprawl to the quieter Litchfield Hills region. The final miles wind through Harwinton's pastoral terrain, where tree-lined country roads and open meadows signal your arrival at a course that feels genuinely removed from the bustle of the I-84 corridor below. Fairview Farm's understated entrance and bucolic setting reward the short journey with the authentic New England farm-golf experience that defines this corner of Connecticut.
