About this course

Killington Golf Course, nestled in the heart of Vermont’s Green Mountains, presents a unique alpine golfing experience shaped by its dramatic elevation changes. This mountain course, designed in the early 1990s, offers a challenging yet rewarding layout carved into the rolling terrain. While not widely lauded on a national level, it’s a favored destination for those seeking a distinctly Vermont golfing experience. Architect Geoffrey Cornish masterfully integrated the course with the existing landscape, creating holes that often play dramatically uphill or downhill. Generous fairways are juxtaposed with demanding approaches, requiring thoughtful club selection and strategic shot placement. While the course lacks the precision-cut aesthetic of some modern layouts, its charm lies in its ruggedness and the sheer beauty of its surroundings. Beyond the golf, Killington fosters a relaxed, inclusive atmosphere. It's a place where golfers come to appreciate the natural beauty of Vermont, and to enjoy a post-round meal overlooking the mountain range. You might even spot a local enjoying the club favorite, a hearty Vermont cheddar and apple panini.

Getting there

Most visitors to Killington Golf Resort arrive through Rutland-Southern Vermont Regional Airport, a compact gateway roughly twenty minutes north, though many opt for the broader connections available at Burlington International (BTV), an hour and a half northwest through the Green Mountains. The drive from either direction traces Vermont's signature pastoral rhythm - rolling dairy country and covered bridges gradually yielding to steeper terrain as Route 4 climbs into Killington's alpine embrace. The final ascent winds past ski chalets and summer wildflower meadows, delivering you to the resort's mountain-flanked fairways with the unmistakable sense of having traded the valley floor for Vermont's high country.
