About Clinton Country Club
Clinton Country Club dates to 1895, making it one of the older golf clubs in the United States, with a long-standing presence along the Connecticut shoreline community.
The club plays over an 18-hole course designed by Geoffrey Cornish, a layout that combines scenic surroundings with a measure of challenge. Outdoor dining overlooks the first tee, giving diners a view across the opening hole.
The clubhouse accommodates events of varying sizes, from small gatherings to larger functions, with dining service on site.
