Walter Travis, a three-time US Amateur Champion, built this course. Mrs. George Orvis asked for it, to absorb the extra players spilling over from Ekwanok Country Club next door. Rees Jones gave it a full renovation in 1991, and The Equinox has since brought him back to renovate it again. Phases 1, 2 and 3 of the greenside bunker project are finished.
The result pairs classic architecture with a layout today's player can enjoy, and the Green Mountains rise all around it.
Lessons run 60 minutes, or you can book a playing lesson out on the course, privately or in a group. Groups can plan outings here too, from corporate retreats to charity tournaments. After the round, the Dormy Grill at the golf clubhouse serves salads and sandwiches with mountain views from the deck.
