TAMARACK COUNTRY CLUB
🇺🇸 Greenwich, CT, USA
Designed by Charles Banks, Ron Forse
Tamarack Country Club, nestled in the rolling landscape of Greenwich, Connecticut, is where understated elegance meets a classic, member-centric experience. This is a course where the echoes of laughter from generations past resonate stronger than any tournament roar.
Originally designed in the early 1920s, Tamarack embodies the spirit of the Golden Age, its generous fairways and subtly contoured greens shaped by a terrain of gentle hills and mature trees. While it doesn’t punish wayward drives, the course favors thoughtful play, with nuanced approaches and a keen understanding of the subtle breaks crucial to success. Famed architect, Charles Banks, originally laid out the course, and was renovated by Brian Silva in 2006.
Tamarack's charm isn't found in championship banners, but rather, in the bonds forged over post-round drinks on the terrace. Its relative obscurity allows a certain freedom—a place where golf is enjoyed for the sheer love of the game, and where the club's legendary clam bar serves as a cherished 19th hole for generations.
Reviews
My number one in CT. Yes, ahead of Yale. also Stanwich if you want to make that argument. It is so fun and love being able to see pretty much the entire course from the first tee
Really fun layout that you could play every day and never get bored. Raised greens give it really beautiful scale and create challenge when you end up in the wrong spot. A few great classic templates with the 4th hole (Bottle) and 7th (Redan) really standing out as excellent holes.
