The par-71 course features 6,423 yards of fairways, bunkers, and greens.
Want to get outside? Positioned on the eastern side of Mount Equinox, the Equinox Preserve and Pond are part of 914 acres of protected land. Open to the public year-round, the area includes 11 miles of maintained trails ranging from an easy pond loop, to the steeper climb up to the summit.
Favorite Moment During a Wedding: We recently had a Greek Wedding at the Resort. During the reception, they had many songs where the guests would throw money out onto the dance floor, per tradition. Watching the faces of the grandparents throwing the money, and the bride and groom laughing and smiling was just so special! It is these little moments that make each wedding different, unique, and special in their own way.
Favorite Vermont Activity: Enjoy the outdoors! The state is so beautiful in all seasons. Incorporate the outdoors into your photos and overall event. You will not be disappointed!

The Pond is breath taken with nature and wildlife surrounding it as well as the beauty of seasonal flowers and a close-up view of the Equinox Mountain.
