Dorset Field Club is where golf breathes the same air as the Green Mountains, a testament to Vermont's understated sporting heritage. Carved into the rolling landscape outside Dorset, this early 20th-century design offers a distinct parkland experience, where mature trees frame gently sloping fairways and small, subtly contoured greens. The course requires thoughtful shot-making, rewarding strategic play over brute power, and often favors those who embrace the ground game. Constructed in 1886, and later refined by famed architect Donald Ross, Dorset Field has maintained its original charm as one of the oldest golf clubs in the United States. While it hasn't hosted major championships, its character and integrity continue to test and delight generations of golfers. Dorset Field remains a beloved, if not nationally renowned, treasure among Vermont golfers. Here, the game is enjoyed in its purest form, where the echoes of hickory shafts and gutta-percha balls mingle with the laughter and camaraderie of a close-knit membership. The clubhouse, a hub of local life, is known for its lively post-round discussions often centering around local lore and some of the best Vermont cheddar.
