Burning Tree Country Club

Overview: Burning Tree is a private Greenwich course centered on an 18-hole championship layout of roughly 6,800 yards at par 72. Hal Purdy’s design, with later Tripp Davis work, combines wooded corridors, shaped fairways and green complexes that reward careful positioning. The club’s family-oriented setting keeps the golf course at the center of a broader year-round country-club experience.

History: Burning Tree Country Club was established in 1962 on approximately 158 acres in Greenwich. The club has continued to invest in its facilities and course while preserving its original family-club mission. Its tournament history includes U.S. Open qualifying and Metropolitan PGA events, connecting a private membership course to the wider regional competition calendar.

Did You Know? Burning Tree is easy to confuse with the better-known Burning Tree Club in Bethesda, Maryland. The Greenwich identity is confirmed by the Perkins Road address and the Hal Purdy/Tripp Davis design attribution, so those separate Maryland club facts do not belong here.
