#MakingSimsburyFarmsTheBestInConnecticut
Spread out over 235 rolling acres, picturesque Simsbury Farms is the hub of recreational activity in Simsbury. The βFarmsβ was built on the former Orkil orchard, and the golf course was designed by renowned architect Geoff Cornish. It is one of the most popular and scenic in the area, and has undergone extensive improvements to ensure that it maintains it’s place as simply “one of the best”.
Special Thanks to All of Our Sponsors!
