Horrible...VT state laws prohibit us from BYOB....fine but you better have a cart girl on the front and back when you have 90+ guys on a golf course. Worst service ever. I guess they don't want to make money!?!? Don't get me wrong, it's a good course, but not for that kind of money that you pay to play and no cart girl. Wouldn't recommend this golf course.

The course was in pristine condition and the greens here are tough, but phenomenal. I had a late afternoon tee time on a weekday and they were very kind and let my wife and 9 month old son go along for the round. We weren't even charged rider fees. We basically had the course to ourselves and I was able to finish the round in right around 3 hours. I would definitely come back here to play again!

If you are not playing with a member (course knowledge) you are scarewed (sic). The greens are pool table fast and if you are on the wrong side of the hole a 3 putt comes into play. The course was in fabulous shape when I played in late July. The rough was up so a missed fairway equaled a tough shot to fast greens. I shot above my handicap but I thoroughly enjoyed my round.

Just spent five, count 'em, consecutive five days playing in a tournament at RCC and yes, I am still very impressed. This place is in great shape, well kept and is one of those courses you can play every single day and still never be bored. Seriously. The food seems to have improved. It was pretty good before but now it is actually very good. 04/22/2010 The 18-hole "Rutland" course at the Rutland Country Club facility in Rutland, Vermont features 6,134 yards of golf from the longest tees for a par of 70 . The course rating is 69.7 and it has a slope rating of 125 on Bent grass. Designed by Styles & VanCleef, the Rutland golf course opened in 1901. Greg Nelson manages the course as the General Manager. Okay, enough of what you can read online. This course might seem innocent enough but don't get fooled. Much like the Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog this track will do more than "nibble your bum." The greens are usually lightening fast and replete with subtle breaks that can turn what might seem like an easy par into a vicious four putt. Beware the two-tiered green of the 13th hole, a long par 5. If you leave yourself a putt from above the hole you are, as they say, screwed. Generally the course is in impeccable condition. The course pro is super-nice. Snack bar at the turn features a decent selection of refreshing beverages and sandwiches / snacks. The food in the newly revamped clubhouse is very good and the bartenders are excellent. The only downside? No driving range and the men's locker room should be gutted. But for a great time and a fantastic golf experience give it a shot. Oh yeah, while the place is semi-private the members are great. No stuffiness here. Just good people, great golf and the occasional game of wolf.

So it's off the beaten path about 15 minute drive from Killington. The place is well kept and maintained and for 75 balls at $7.00, a great price. The place is a little hard to find because apparently the owner runs an Oil & fuel business, and the driving range is behind the business on the right hand side. Once you spot the PGA sigh just pull in where the oil trucks are and you are there. The driving range is well maintained, places to hold your clubs. They really don't have any formal hours because payment for your bucket of balls is on the honor system, so you go in sign they're sales journal and drop your cash into a locked mailbox. It's as simple as it gets but bring either a $5 or $7 depending on how many balls you want to hit. My only complaint or really suggestion would be for him to add different yard markers and perhaps a Flag and green type area so you could truly measure you drives and distance.

The course is beautiful, with a manageable front and long back 9 (6500 yrs) from the middle tees. The course is open and even high handicap golfers will not lose many balls; there are really only a few spots on the course that are truly out of bounds. The staff is typically very friendly, Jeremy who manages the bag room is particularly nice. The pros are all great too. The whole place is well maintained, as they do host PGA (junior/womens) events from time to time. The greens play very fast towards the end of summer, and some of them slope in ways that will really frustrate anyone. Price-wise, the place is on the upper end if you have no college affiliation (about 140 or so) but is exceptionally cheap for students (35 dollars) so definitely a place to visit if you are in the area and still in school. The course truly cannot be recommended enough, and it offers some exceptional views of both the Williams College campus and the surrounding areas.
