About this course
The Golf Club at Basin Harbor is part of the Basin Harbor resort on Lake Champlain in Vergennes, Vermont. Golf there dates to 1916, when resort owner Allen Penfield Beach laid out a few holes; Scottish professional Alex Campbell designed nine holes in 1927, and architect William Mitchell added nine more in 1955 to create the 18-hole course. Geoffrey Cornish later renovated the layout in the mid-1980s.
The course measures 6,513 yards to a par of 72, set along the lake with views of the Adirondacks across the water. It functions as a resort amenity open to guests and the public, with a pro shop and practice facilities.
In 2026 the resort entered a management partnership with Milne Golf, which also runs Neshobe and Rocky Ridge golf clubs in Vermont, for ongoing operation of the course.

Cedar Knoll Country Club
Hinesburg, VT · 16 mi away
Cedar Knoll Country Club is a 27-hole facility in Hinesburg, Vermont, in the Champlain Valley about 14 miles from Burlington. The property was formerly the Bissonette family dairy farm before the Ayer family converted it to a golf course. Raymond Ayer laid out the original 18 holes, known as the West and North nines, which opened for play in 1994 after the family's dairy herd was sold off to fund construction. A third nine, the South course, was added later to give the club 27 total holes across rolling, hilly terrain. The club is family owned and operated, with a restaurant and bar, practice facilities and men's and women's leagues.
