About Richter Park Golf Course

Richter Park Golf Course in Danbury is widely considered one of Connecticut's finest municipal golf courses and a must-play for any serious golfer visiting southwestern Connecticut. Set within the scenic Richter Park along the shores of Kohanza Reservoir, this eighteen-hole layout was designed by Edward Ryder and has earned national recognition since opening in 1971. The course features dramatic views of the reservoir and surrounding Danbury hills, with a layout that challenges golfers through strategic design rather than brute length. Bentgrass fairways and greens are maintained to high standards, rivaling many private clubs in the area. Richter Park has been ranked among the top municipal courses in the United States by major golf publications, drawing visitors from across Connecticut and neighboring New York. Despite its fame, green fees remain municipally priced, making this one of the best values in New England golf.
