Lyman Orchards Golf Club opened in 1969 with Robert Trent Jones
designing a championship 18-hole golf course with four sets of tees on
each hole, coupled with 44 bunkers.
In 1994, world-renowned player and golf course designer Gary Player opened the second course, “The Player Course,” through the apple orchards and elevation changes. Both have ranked among CT’s Top Ten Public Golf Courses, The Best of the Northeast, and Zagat.com as “among of the best courses to play in the United States.”
Lyman Orchards began in 1741 as a 36-acre farm and remains a family-owned and operated business on 1,100 acres in Middlefield, Conn. Stephen Ciskowski is CEO and John Lyman III is chief operating officer.
In addition to golf, the business includes a farm store, pick-your-own crops, and a corporate meeting and special events venue in the Lyman Homestead, now listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
