Equinox Resort

We really enjoy this course! It is lush and green in the summer and offers fabulous vistas of colorful foliage in the fall. It provides challenges for every level of play--for me, getting over the road on the seventh hole!

This course will challenge all skill levels. Redone by Reese Jones in 1991 it is a great layout in a great mountain setting. The only complaint would be the sand traps. Although raked daily they have lots of stones.

I live locally and I've played this course a number of times. It is affiliated with the Equinox Resort which is super fancy and expensive.

The course itself is well maintained and really beautiful. If you are from out of town, you will love the views of the surrounding mountains and town. In the Fall it is incredibly picturesque.

Now that I have played it a number of times, I realize that the course itself really isn't all that interesting in terms of the play and shots required. I hit driver off of every hole (expect the Par 3's) and found myself hitting an approach wedge into just about every green - and I'm not a particularly big hitter and play from the white tees. The par 3's are pretty weird - #4 being uphill and virtually blind, and one of the other two is ridiculously short and downhill #14, and the other #16 is really long and demands a pretty stiff 6 iron (for me). The par 5 on the front is funky and plays over the road, the par 5 on the back is really nice and probably my favorite hole on the course.

Again, this is a really nice course, well maintained, and relatively straight-forward. It's accessible and very playable for first-timers but I think for the really good golfer they might be a little disappointed in the course from a challenge perspective. However, the average to bad golfer will probably like the course and appreciate it's straight fairways and abundance of short par 4's. The course is definitely beautiful and if you're visiting Vermont (especially in the Fall) then this is a great course to spend some time on.

Really grateful to get a great deal on Golf Now ($35 w/ a cart on a Sunday at 2!) - but would never pay full price however here. But I'm a pretty frugal golfer.

Convenient reservation process, nice course, very good price.

Very well layed out track fairways were perfect greens did not want to hold a shot every thing was running through the greens, hate these fescue roughs. Greens were smooth and fast. We went off after a captains choice and they were very slow 5 hours. I felt they could have just as well sent us off in front of the tournment We were their early enough.

Played this course as part if our 2013 guys golf getaway. Course was in great shape and very challenging. Look forward to coming back on our next VT trip!

P.S. don't speed through Mt. Tabor!

Played by myself - played Saturday and returned Sunday even though I had a 6 hr round trip each day - was worth every minute- cannot wait to return - hospitality and facility helped make the long drive well worth the effort - changing rooms showers etc. -
Coolers on the carts !

The course was very pleasant, and in overall very good shape. Greens were probably rolling 10 and the fairways were in pristine shape. A couple of small negatives were the tee boxes (played gold - back) were pretty uneven and the course had a lot of out of bounds, much more than I've ever seen elsewhere. Luckily there was always one side of the hole that could be played away from the out of bounds. Overall fun course could use a few hundred more yards to make it a real challenge.

This course was a lot of fun to play even for the person in our party who had not played in 3 years! The course was challenging enough for all of us and it was beautiful! So glad we chose Equinox, we will play this course again when we are in Vermont!

I've played this course everytime I come to Vermont. It's a great layout and is always in very good condition. Yesterday was no exception. The course once again is in very good condition and is always fun to play. The greens were in excellent condition and very fast, which is always the case here. I'm sure you'll enjoy playing this layout.

Beautiful views staff nice wish there was a range overall a great experience

they prob have some booking issues...at 3pm wed. there were 4 foursomes on the 7th hole...greens are nice, otherwise not very well manicured; back nine is better

The only negative thing I have to say is that there were rocks in the bunkers. Not just little pebbles, but rocks some of which were 3 inches across. I talked to the person in the pro shop after the round about it and he was very dismissive about it, blaming the amount of rain that has fallen. I am from NH and was aware of all the rain we have had but no other course that I have ever played has had rocks like these traps had. We were able to remove them to play a shot but on one shot there was a rock about 2 inches across below the surface of the ball in the trap and my club was damaged when I played the shot. It would take little effort on the greens staff to rake out all the stones.

Firstly accessibility from where we were staying in Manchester was ideal. The course was well looked after. Unfortunately, we played the day following a rainy evening so the course was quite soggy in some places. The course is challenging in the overall length for an average player like myself. Most of the holes are lie straight ahead from each tee. A few of the last holes were an uphill battle with some untamed scrub brush. If one is familiar with the course this should not pose a problem. We had no waiting times on the course and everything moved along at a good pace.
Secondly, a shout out to Golf Now for the most efficient reservation system...no fuss. In addition the golf fees were amazingly affordable. We are looking to using the services of Golf Now again.
The staff at the GC at Equinox were very pleasant and knowledgeable.
We did not sample the food with this particular round of golf.
We would highly recommend this course to anyone living or travelling in the area.

A GREAT Vermont resort course. Beautiful views. A variety of holes to challenge any level of golfer. Friendly staff. We had a great day!

Much better then I remember. The course is very playable, but there are 3 or 4 holes that are monsters from the tips. Par 5's very difficult. The only hole I did not like was the first par 5 over the road. Great shape, great staff and I got a great price on Golf Now

This is a very short layout. A great place for the novice, older man or women. It's wide fairways allow for errant shots to still be in play. The better player will enjoy this when he looks at his score card and sees his score. The greens though not flat are easy to read and roll very well.

Exept the 7 hole the course is amazing wow ... Nothing else to say good chalenge ...

I thought the course was good, but not as good as others had rated. We drove an hour to play it and would not make the trek again. There are other courses of equal or better conditions closer to where we were staying.

This was the first time that I had played Equinox and I was very impressed. My brother in law says it's his favourite course and after finding the golf now website I saw there was a hot deal for $38 which was $100 cheaper than the regular price. Couldn't resist that offer so booked it up.

I usually shoot in the mid 90's to 100 as I don't play too often. Upon arriving the staff were extremely friendly and had a greeter on the first tee to welcome me. The course is in great condition. Fairways are immaculate and the greens have a constant speed. The bunkers are prestine, light sand and no stones.

The only negatives I had was a few holes have out of bounds on the right hand side of the fairway so if you have a slight slice like I do then you may lose a few balls. It's not the courses fault I sometimes slice my tee shots, just seems a bit harsh that the tee box is just a few yards from OB. Also the 5th green had alot of debris from the trees behind it. Made putting a little bit harder and having never played the hole before didn't know the line it would take. Ended up hitting a few of the buds and moved the ball a few inches off line.

One of the par 3's is only 110 yards long and straight downhill which feels a little cheap, but I managed a par after a good birdie attempt just went wide....so can't really complain.

The biggest downer which was no fault of the course was a severe storm came in whilst on hole 15th and the course got flooded so had to end the round short.

Other than that I had a real good time and played with two other players who had booked through golf now website.

Will definately be going back if a weekend tee time is around the $40 mark again.
