We recommend aiming for late spring or early fall; you'll find lush conditions and fewer crowds in May-June, or stunning foliage and crisp air in September-early October. Mid-summer is also fantastic, with courses in peak shape and Lake Champlain offering a refreshing escape after your round.

What kind of golf experience can I expect from Chittenden County's courses?

You'll discover a great variety here, from challenging layouts with dramatic elevation changes and mountain backdrops to more forgiving, parkland-style tracks. Many courses boast incredible views of Lake Champlain or the surrounding Green Mountains, making every round feel distinctly Vermont.

How does the cost of golf in Chittenden County compare to other popular golf destinations?

We find Chittenden County offers excellent value, especially when compared to major resort areas. While you won't find super-cheap rounds, green fees are generally reasonable for the quality and scenery, often ranging from $60-$120 for 18 holes, with some premium courses slightly higher.

What should we do in Chittenden County when we're not on the golf course?

Burlington is your hub for post-round fun - explore the vibrant Church Street Marketplace, sample local craft beers, or take a scenic cruise on Lake Champlain. You're also perfectly positioned for short drives to hiking trails in the Green Mountains or exploring charming Vermont towns.

Are the 11 courses in Chittenden County spread out, or are they relatively close together?

The courses are quite accessible, mostly within a 30-45 minute drive of Burlington, making it easy to base yourself in one spot and explore different tracks daily. You won't spend all day driving between rounds, which means more time for golf and enjoying the local scene.
