Indian Hill Country Club is a private member-owned club established in 1899 in Newington, Connecticut. Set on 111 Golf Street, the club centers on an 18-hole championship course whose design traces through three architects — John Duncan Dunn (1899), Robert D. Pryde (1912), and Robert J. Ross (1924) — producing a traditional New England layout of undulating terrain, native grasses, and a challenging par-70 routing. The club offers a private reception space with a wall of windows overlooking the course, an outdoor ceremony area beneath a white gazebo on the lawn, and a terrace for cocktail receptions. The facility accommodates up to 225 guests and provides in-house catering for weddings, private dinners, and other events. Both live bands and DJs are permitted, with music allowed indoors.

Wickham, the park encompasses nine distinctly themed gardens — including the Hilltop, Irish, Oriental, English, Scottish, and award-winning Sensory Gardens — alongside woodlands, ponds, and open fields. The park hosts weddings, receptions, and private events across two dedicated venues. The Cabin at Hilltop Garden is a rustic log cabin — a replica of the original structure built by the Wickhams in 1927 — featuring wood floors, exposed beams, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, and a connected 30-by-60-foot reception tent. The adjoining amphitheater offers a panoramic view of the Hartford skyline. The Emerald Room of the Irish Garden is a stone-sided hexagonal building with a wood cathedral ceiling, set within a half-acre walled garden complete with a water fountain, stone tables, and a gazebo courtyard. Both venues are available April through October and accommodate events ranging from intimate gatherings to receptions of up to 150 guests. Site fees include setup and cleanup, tables and chairs, audio-visual equipment, get-ready rooms, and parking for guests.
