History of Old Warson Country Club
Golf.
Of all the enduring appeals of Old Warson Country Club, none surpasses the beauty of our 18-hole championship golf course. Situated on 184 acres of rolling terrain with the Noroton River winding through it, the course is a rich natural habitat, justly deserving being the first golf course recognized as a bird sanctuary by the National Audubon Society.
The course was designed by Willie Park, Jr., a two-time British Open Champion and world renowned golf course architect. Old Warson CC is challenging to golfers of all skill levels mainly because it requires golfers to hit "all of the shots". The yardage from the back tees measures 6,901 yards, but the course's true challenge – regardless of which tees you play – is its unique and deceptive greens. Justifiably, the club is regularly ranked as one of the best in state by Golf Digest.
