Stratford Country Club

The history of Stratford Country Club dates back to 1896 when William Maynard, one of the club's shareholders, began golfing in the open field north of the Avon River where nine golf holes were built 20 years later. An additional nine were designed in 1970, creating the 18-hole golf course that exists today. Given the course's age, there are mature trees covering the landscape. Its riverside location guarantees water on a few holes and there are strategically placed bunkers throughout. There is also the occasional multi-tiered green to watch out for. Stratford Country Club is visually intimidating, and it does offer some challenges, but it is actually quite accessible for most skill levels.
