FAIRFIELD/SOUTHPORT
CONNECTICUT'S GOLD COAST COMMUNITY
Fairfield, Connecticut is situated in a coastal town on the Gold Coast of Connecticut. Fairfield offers many local amenities of the arts, culture, shopping and dining and has been fortunate to maintain their old-fashioned traditions and values. Residents attend concerts on the green, town fairs and farmers markets, and participate in parades, pumpkin carving contests, sled riding and holiday festivities.
Nature plays a large part in the Fairfield Community as it spans along 8 miles of stunning Long Island Sound coastline. This offers residents a wide variety of recreational amenities including four public beaches, fresh water Lake Mohegan with hiking trails, 3 public golf courses, indoor and outdoor town tennis courts and hundreds of acres of protected land. Boating enthusiasts can moor their craft at the South Benson Marina, with 600-rental boat slips and Ye Yacht Yard, which provides launch services and access to Southport Harbor. Ye Yacht Yard is also the home to Community Sailing of Fairfield, whose members share two 18-foot sailboats. Bird lovers frequent the Fairfield Audubon Society and the Birdcraft Museum.

Southport is an exquisite seafaring village with one of the most picturesque harbors in all New England; Southport real estate being amongst the finest in the world. Inland, you will find the prestigious Greenfield Hill area, with stately mansions, rustic charm and equestrian properties; both of which are notably scenic and affluent. In addition to the Pequot Yacht Club, Fairfield offers many private clubs including the Patterson Club, Country Club of Fairfield, Brooklawn Country Club and the Fairfield Beach Club.
