About the Course
| Country Club of
Barre was built in 1924 and 9 holes were added in 1967. The
semi-private course has hosted many VGA and NEGA events through its
storied history. A four star rating by golf digest and a "Hidden
Gems" label by Vermont Golf Magazine bears proof of a great golfing
experience. Lush fairways, fast greens and immaculate maintenance by
course Superintendent Bill Evans await the serious golfer. Constantly
striving to improve, the club has redone every bunker on the golf course
and continually work on cleaning up the wooded areas to make them more
playable. The club has a great long term plan to make sure that
the golf course remains one of the best in the state. Come visit and
enjoy the spectacular views of central Vermont that await your next
round. |
