Richter Park Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Situated at the heart of Fairfield County, Richter Park Golf Course is situated along the West Lake Reservoir. The course has been ranked among not only the top ten golf courses in Connecticut but also as one of the top 25 public courses in the country. The course sprawls across more than 180 acres of gently rolling hills. Water has a prominent presence throughout, with the Reservoir bordering seven holes on the front nine and water hazards coming into play on a total of 14 holes. In addition to the water, there are a variety of elevation changes ranging from subtle to dramatic, which can make it a tough golf course to play your first time. Be prepared for a few blind shots. Richter Park's signature hole, the par-5 12th, is bordered by Boggs Pond. Your third shot will be over water to a bunkered green.

Loved the front 9. Back 9 lacked character. Whole course in great shape except some tee boxes are chewed up. Overall very nice tho!
Stuck with a player in cart who smoked a cigar the entire round - most miserable when it is lousy cigar that I had to 2nd hand smoke. My eyes are still irritated and I can test the smoke 4 hors later.
GOING TO HAVE TO REQUEST A FULL REFUND ON THIS ROUND!!!
