Golf in Waterford

Waterford is a southeastern Connecticut town that encompasses a remarkable concentration of regional infrastructure—the Millstone Nuclear Power Station on the Thames River coast, the Eugene O'Neill Theater Center, and the Rocky Neck State Park beaches along the Sound shoreline—creating a community of unusual diversity within a compact geographic area. Great Neck Country Club occupies the Great Neck peninsula, a geographic feature that juts into the Thames River estuary where it meets Long Island Sound, providing the coastal setting that makes it one of the more scenically distinctive private clubs in southeastern Connecticut. The combination of the O'Neill Theater Center's cultural programming and the Sound coastline's recreational resources give Waterford a depth of identity that its relatively modest public profile belies.
