The Fenwick Golf Course is the oldest public golf course in the State of Connecticut and, following the Greenwich Country Club, the second oldest course in the State. The first three holes (5th, 6th and 7th) were laid out in 1894. Holes 2, 3 and 4 were added in 1895 and the full nine hole layout was completed in 1896.
