GOODWIN GOLF COURSE

This municipal gem in Hartford delivers surprising strategic depth across rolling Connecticut terrain that rewards course management over raw distance. The par-4 12th hole epitomizes the layout's character, demanding a precise drive through mature oaks to set up an approach to a wickedly sloped green that punishes the overly aggressive. What elevates this public track above typical muni fare is the variety of lies and angles that force you to work every club in the bag.
