I didn’t see the place before the reno but these green complexes are pretty mind-blowing. The par-3 templates are possibly the best i’ve played. And great routing—it’s not right in front of you but uses the land in interesting ways on almost every hole.

Classic Willie Park Jr course. Post Reno with the trees taken out has created a more open enjoyable round. Greens are fast & firm. Keeps asking you questions on each hole - fun round

Some forgettable holes, but the good ones were pretty good. A little too quirky at times, but in phenomenal shape. Met Open played extremely difficult, think -1 was a 2 man playoff

Course is really solid all around. Cool layout, interesting holes, a good mixture of different types of holes. Probably doesn’t get the respect it deserves because of all the good courses around it. Really fun.

My practice round the green was stimping at around a 12, after some rain that week it ended up being around a 9. Disappointing, but overall some really fun holes. 18 holes are kinda crammed into a small space so a lot of quirky holes especially on the back

Fun course, limited by a tight property. Always 10/10 conditions, tough greens. Kicks you in the teeth 1-3 with a smooth walk home.

Course was in phenomenal shape for Met Open qualifier. Some cool holes and some VERY quirky ones. Overall, too many doglegs for my liking

Very difficult and hilly course. Conditions are good, just a bit of target golf while still playing long. A few cool holes, some nice views, but definitely a step below some of the other great courses in Fairfield County, CT.

Port Jeff is on the Long Island Sound, so expect some wind. Certainly better than a municipal, the Jeff is in decent condition, however not up there with the likes of other clubs. I do not love the layout of the front 9 and the back 9 certainly takes the cake here.
