Located adjacent to Foxwoods Resort Casino, Lake of Isles’
back tees measure almost 7,300 yards and every hole on this
championship golf course presents a new challenge. The
notable architect, Rees Jones, knew what he was doing when he designed this golf course around the pictorial
landscape which is owned by the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation. It takes a talented golfer to confront
this threatening course, which co-hosted the 2014 Connecticut Amateur Championship along with its equally
challenging South Course.
