The 5th. Par-4, 333. Classic drive-and-pitch hole, reflecting the links flavor of many Wintonbury holes. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 10/14/2021

7th. Par-3, 255. As seen from tee eight, a threesome engaged in play around the green. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 10/14/2021

11. Par-4, 433. A brute that takes no prisoners, and straight uphill from tee to green. Well, you can enjoy the fall scenery, anyway. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 10/14/2021

The twelfth, a downhill par-3 of 168, gives you a slight breather on a back nine that supplies little respite. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 10/14/2021

Five is a short but strategic four-par of 333. Beautiful vistas abound on this course. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 10/28/2020

The downhill 7th, a three-par of 255. Dye believed that long three-pars were the only holes to induce low-handicappers to hit long irons. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 10/28/2020

Wintonbury 1st timer
Beautiful course that was quite walkable for a 60+ couple. Had a very nice outing with a friendly 2 some that had roughly the same skillset. Fairways were nice and the greens were quite fast. Would love to come back.
Review
First time playing from Danbury richter park usual. Fantastic experience. Friendly staff. Beautiful course. Pretty Wide open holes to let go with the driver which I came for. Great greens. Great layout. Will be back to beat 82.
Pa e of play was very slow. Waited on every shot
5+ hours
Pete Dye's Public CT Masterpiece
Had an absolute blast playing Wintonbury Hills! From this first hole you can tell this is another classic Pete Dye design (and fun fact is the only public Pete Dye course in CT).
Had an 11AM tee time and unfortunately did not arrive in time to use the range (which is available, but a bit of a hike from the pro shop). Staff was very friendly and has a nice golf shop, but was a little bummed the restaurant doesn't open till 11 so didn't have a chance for a snack before hand. Additionally, at this time the course has no on course water stations or places in the shop to fill up bottles so come prepared or be forced to pay for a bottle (did have a cart girl for on course purchases).
The course overall is in amazing shape. Tee to green one of the best kept courses I have played in CT. As a mid-handicapper I felt like the layout is challenging, but fair and allows you to play a variety of shots throughout the day. I chose to walk the course with a push cart and felt like it was very manageable. Most holes are relatively close to each other and while there are some hills, nothing felt daunting.
For a course of this caliber $65 to walk for a "weekend" rate felt extremely reasonable. This has to be one of the best priced courses in CT for the price. 100% would recommend this to any CT local or visitor of the state.

There’s Wide Open and then there’s WIDE OPEN
It’s a struggle to lose a ball on this exceptionally well maintained inland links course. Pretty much any ball off the Par 4 and Par 5 holes will find a fairway, although maybe not the one you were aiming for. The course design is not particularly interesting, but the greens are lightening fast, the vistas are great, and the staff is first rate.
Nice Course
Very nice course. Forgiving tee's. great GPS carts. Be advised the carts shut down if you go into the rough, they are fairway and path only. Good food. Can be slow if you get behind one of the leagues but that is the same for every golf course.
Enjoyed the day
Weather was a bit overcast with some showers but the course was in great condition. It wasn't overly crowded due to the weather but we played in under 4 hours walking. Would recommend if you are in the area.
Good Course Bad Service.
My son used my account and booked a tee time for himself this past weekend. He had played during the week and payed $25 for the Junior rate since he's a junior. He then called during the week when he saw he could play to make sure he'd get the Junior rate on the weekend. The lady said he would pay $25 to walk 18 on Saturday since he's a junior. He then booked the tee time. He shows up and they said there's no junior rate. He explained how he called ahead and spoke with someone who told him there was. They said they would give him the Junior Rate but then decided otherwise and charged him $65 to Walk 18. I am disappointed in the service he received. He likes the course but not the price. Much better deals somewhere else. He will be taking his business there. $65 to Walk for a Junior seems a way too pricy when he called ahead to make sure thats what theyd charge him. He would have never booked it if it was $65.
Great course
Great from the moment I walked into the pro shop, greeted immediately by two friendly pro shop workers. For a Saturday it was busy but pace of play was great, just over 4 hours. Tough greens - which we were told about at check in. But great conditions throughout. Will play again
Great course. People were all nice and helpful .
Would definitely like to play there more often.
Great Course
I don't usually play this course but when I get the time to get out here I always enjoy it. The course was in great condition. The greens were in good condition and the fairways were great too. One thing about this course is that the tough is very thick. Other than that the course was amazing while a little slow due to the group in front of us we still finished in about 4 hours. Good course and if I was a bit closer I'd come here all the time. Well worth it.
