What You Need To Know About Oxford

Greens And Fox Hopyard Golf Courses





Oxford Greens and Fox Hopyard are two beautiful courses that are well worth a visit by

any golfer.

Oxford Greens has been open since June 2005 and Mark Mungeam designed this

championship layout course. Among other impressive features, it boasts of five sets of

tees that are suitable for players of all abilities. Its beauty mainly lies in the fact that a

substantial part of the course has been carefully curved out of the woods west of

Naugatuck State Forest. It incorporates and takes full advantage of more than 680 acres

of natural and breathtaking beauty of the forest and woods. The design of this course can

best be described as neoclassical.

Arguably the highlight of any experience at Oxford Greens is when you enter the second

hole. Here one is immediately bathed by the wonderful vista of water, grass and sunsets.

This is no doubt one of Connecticuts most impressive golf courses.

Fox Hopyard Golf Club in East Haddam, Connecticut, is situated adjacent to the Devils

Hopyard State Park, and is another fine course. It is both a golf course with a great

design and also one that is beautifully conditioned. When playing at close to 7,000 yards

from the back tees, this Par 71 layout gives you woods, meadows, water, wetlands and

even wildlife in a combination that no golfer can forget in a hurry. The course was

designed by one Roger Rulewich and is probably one of his most memorable designs

ever. The Clubhouse, which is built right atop a 30 foot rock ledge, has a commanding

view of the southwest 9th and 15th to 18th holes.

Both Oxford Greens and Fox Hopyard courses should be carefully taken note of by any

golfer who is yet to experience either and should then be visited at the least excuse,

whenever a golfer gets the chance.
