Golf in Hebron

Hebron is a Tolland County town in the agricultural and forested landscape east of Marlborough, home to two golf facilities—Blackledge Country Club's 36-hole complex and Tallwood Country Club's 18-hole private layout—that together create one of eastern Connecticut's more complete private golf markets. The wooded, naturally rolling terrain of the Salmon River watershed provides both facilities with a genuine New England countryside setting that has attracted a private golf community valuing the authentic landscape character over the more manufactured environments of the suburban Hartford facilities. The town's agricultural traditions, preserved in its farm stands and open fields, give Hebron a rural New England character that the relatively modest residential development has not displaced, maintaining the community's appeal for those who value the quieter landscapes of the eastern Connecticut upland.
