More Event Information
Country Club of Vermont is a world class design in a mountain setting that has been home to the Vermont Credit Union Golf Challenge for the past few years. The course provides a challenging but virtually private tour through the spectacular Vermont countryside. Sitting on over 200 acres, with no residential construction, travel between holes is minimal, yet each feels secluded, with little or no view of surrounding holes.
The visually imposing front nine is a “links” environment featuring the natural terrain’s rolling hills, berms and splendid scenery. Players then go “into the woods”, enjoying a back nine of tree-lined fairways, sparkling brooks and some challenging but equally beautiful mountain landscapes.
