ORANGE HILLS COUNTRY CLUB
🇺🇸 Orange, CT, USA
Designed by Geoffrey Cornish

Orange Hills Country Club, nestled in the rolling landscape of Orange, Connecticut, is a testament to enduring community spirit, a gathering place more than a battleground for championship golf. The course itself, carved from classic New England parkland, presents a straightforward test, favoring a strategic approach over raw power. Fairways are generous, yet doglegs and well-placed bunkers encourage thoughtful club selection. The greens, while not severely undulating, demand a deft touch.
While not a stop on any professional circuit, Orange Hills enjoys a deep connection with its membership. Generations have learned the game here, forging lasting bonds amidst the mature trees and tranquil ponds. The clubhouse buzzes with local stories and friendly competition, a testament to the club’s central role in the town's social fabric.
A local rumor persists that a U.S. Amateur participant once drove the green on the par-4 12th, a feat only achievable with favorable winds and perhaps a touch of youthful exuberance. True or not, it speaks to the course's approachable character. After a round, members often gather on the patio, where the air is filled with laughter and the aroma of the club's famous clam chowder, a comforting reminder of the traditions that bind Orange Hills together.
