Equinox Golf Course

Manchester, VT

Nestled in the picturesque Green Mountain National Forest in historic Manchester, Vermont, the Equinox Golf Course is a classic Walter Travis design, originally opened in 1927. Travis, a U.S. Amateur champion, was renowned for his design philosophy emphasizing well-positioned bunkers and sporty, undulating greens that demand a deft short game. The course underwent a comprehensive restoration by Rees Jones in 1992, preserving its historic character while enhancing playability. The mountainous terrain ensures a challenging layout with varied shots, making it a true test for golfers. The 13th hole, a beautiful par 4 with a long uphill approach, is often cited as the signature hole, while Travis’s distinctive greens, often featuring pot bunkers and “chocolate drop” moguls, provide memorable challenges throughout the round. The Equinox Golf Course offers stunning views and a strategic experience, rewarding players who can master its well-manicured, undulating greens and often elevated greens.
