Golf in Glastonbury

Glastonbury is a Hartford County town on the eastern bank of the Connecticut River, consistently rated among the most desirable residential communities in the Hartford metropolitan area for its exceptional schools, the Tobacco Valley River Trail, and the natural beauty of the Connecticut River frontage. Two golf courses—Glastonbury Hills Country Club and Minnechaug Golf Course—provide the community with private and accessible golf options in a town whose population has grown substantially as the Hartford professional class has chosen the eastern bank communities for their residential quality. The town's apple orchards and farm stands along Hebron Avenue sustain an agricultural dimension that connects Glastonbury to its colonial farming heritage even as the community has become one of Hartford County's most prosperous residential suburbs across the river from the capital.
