Essex Fells Country Club

Course Type: Private

Client Course Description

The eighteen-hole course, measuring 6,158-yard, par 70 course is beautifully landscaped for all seasons and is a challenge for both the novice and veteran golfer. It is not overwhelming nor is it a pushover by any means. The course has an intriguing layout that makes it a pleasure to play. The small, fast greens, undulating fairways and the bunker placement tend to keep players on their toes and humble the overconfident. The diversity of trees lining the fairways as well as the variety of shrubs, flowers and grasses creates a panorama that even the most hardened duffer appreciates. The golfing season generally starts in April and extends to October. Weather conditions permitting, many additional rounds of golf can be enjoyed before and after the official season.
