Located in the central part of the state on rollicking, rocky terrain, Waterbury is a true Donald Ross design that has been altered very little since he came here in 1928. In typical Ross fashion, he routed this par 69 terrifically over the terrain with a fantastic set of greens and plenty of challenge for better players. Like nearby Worcester, this is a course that would receive a lot more attention if it were closer to either Boston or New York, but flies well-under the radar in a post-industrial city like Waterbury. The very definition of a hidden gem, a day at Waterbury is a day very well spent and one I recommend very highly.
