Tashua Knolls Golf Course is a 27-hole facility owned by the Town of Trumbull. Being an enterprise fund, all funding for the course is self-sufficient, rather than coming from taxpayers. The original 18-hole layout was built in 1976 by golf architect Al Zikorus, the course is situated on picturesque farmland originally inhabited by the Tamtashua Indians, and later the Mallet family of Trumbull. Your round will be in a classic New England setting with rolling hills and great views. The course features mature trees, original stone walls, a 200 year old Church and cemetery, and just enough water to make things interesting! Deer, turkeys, and other wildlife are frequent visitors. The facility is a great place to work on your game, with two putting greens, a chipping green, full driving range, and an indoor training center run by experienced PGA Professionals. Any other needs you have will be met by the locker facilities for men and women, a full-service pro shop, as well as restaurant and banquet facilities.

Tashua Glen Golf Course
Tashua Glen is a 9-hole public golf course located adjacent to the Tashua Knolls 18-hole championship course in the Town of Trumbull. Completed in 2005, Tashua Glen had been in the planning stages for nearly two decades and was designed by course architect Michael Zikorus, son of Al Zikorus – designer of the original 18-hole Tashua Knolls layout in the mid 1970s.
Tashua Glen is pleased to be the first course in Connecticut recognized as a Family Course by the National Golf Course Owners Association. The length of many golf courses takes away some of the fun of learning to play golf. Many 18-hole courses measure 5,000 yards from the forward tees — still too long for kids and adult beginners. A Family Course set-up adds two additional tee locations (Yellow at 3,750 yards and Green at 2,200 yards) so the entire family can enjoy their round together. That said, the terrain and tight landing areas of the Glen still provide an appropriate challenge for all golfers, making it a popular family-friendly gem that even the most experienced golfers can enjoy.
