Tunxis is a solid track

got there early, first time of the day. staff very friendly. played as a single, and tried to stay out of the maintenance guys way. course is flat, with almost no fairway bunkers, but the greens are almost all raised complexes and there is a fair amount of water hazards. Played from the tips and it is challenging. Greens were perfect, but fairways a little thin in spots. would definitely play again.

Second time here at the White course this year. Conditions are fantastic, yes a few holes are driver wedge, but that being said it's not easy. I had a great time and will be back. If you haven't played it, you should

Great Day

Course was in excellent condition. We moved along at a quick pace. A gentlemen rode up to our foursome and gave us bottles of water. The bar/restaurant was perfect for post golf drinks and burgers. We will all be back!

Great price tough rough fuzzy greens

Pace of play was super quick as no one was there despite being a perfect day. We played in 3 hours as a twosome. Never saw this course so empty especially seeing that the weather was perfect like playing a private club. Rough was heavy and the greens were fuzzy (poa)

Boring

I've never understood why people enjoy playing here. Every hole is driver/wedge. There's little in the way of trouble, even if you're in the rough. Conditions are always average, while prices are too high. Go to Stanley or Rockledge if you're looking for something close, Simsbury Farms or Timberlin if you're willing to drive a little farther.

Tunxis white course

Considering the time of year the course was in good shape. Lots of debris on the fairways. Additional yardage markers would help especially 150 post markers. Overall experience was good, definitely would recommend. Staff was very friendly.

Conditions less than average

Course conditions were not up to expectations. Greens needed to be rolled and cut. Lots of clover in the rough.

Conditions disappointing

Played 18 on the white course. Play was backed up from the start. Played as a twosome so I expected to be waiting but the group in front of us made no attempt to speed play. Conditions were bad. The fairways were long and there was little to discern the length of the rough and the fairways. Likewise the grass on the T boxes was very long which made it difficult to judge t height. The greens and bunkers were in good condition. Overall not worth the $66 paid to play there.

Pretty flat. Generous landing areas. Play well and you can score. Spray it and you can definitely find yourself in the trees.

A "Rough" Day

I love playing Tunxis..White or Green Course...But come on Management/Superintendent the rough was like it hadn't been cut this year. Had difficulty finding balls that had ventured into the rough. Not sure if it was the weather during the week which halted maintenance but I wasn't pleased. Also, the greens were unbelievably slow. Played the White Course, shot 87 , 10.5 Index...so take it from there. US Kids Tour was playing Green course which was impressive. Let's get the course maintained better, please. Bill V

Tunxis visit

Facility has 45 holes, plenty to chose from, played the white course which is more wide open than the green course. The course features a large pond that has 4 greens connecting within the water feature. Greens could have been cut better to increase speed, bunkers were so so, in need of more sand. Even wider open then green course, still required you to place ball on certain sides of fairway for better approach shots. Very friendly and helpful staff, grill room menu could have been better for such a large facility.
