About the Course

Rutland Country Club dates back to 1901 when the first 9 holes were designed by George Low on what was then the Baxter Farm.   Stiles and VanKleek redesigned the original 9 holes and added another 9 holes in 1928.  Although not a long course, Rutland is tough and tight.  The greens are on the small side - they are fast and tricky and can be very tough to putt.  This esteemed venue is the favorite course of quite a few good Central Vermont golfers.   It is a course which players look forward to playing again and again.  The course record is 62 and held by Bobby Locke.
