obert Trent Jones, Sr. designed the golf course at Sugarbush Resort in Warren, Vt. with a natural feel, allowing his routing to unfold with subtle beauty that reflects this area of upper New England. The course measures 6,464yards long from the tips and plays to a par of 72 layout. It opened in 1961, and flows along the hilltops of the Mad River Valley. The course at Sugarbush Resort is challenging yet fair. A perfect example of this balance is the layout’s second hole, a 510-yard par-five from the tips. Big hitters can rip a driver and then go for the green in two shots. But the safer, and perhaps wiser, play may be a steady three shots to find the green. Located in the Green Mountains, Sugarbush Resort and Golf Course provides an ideal setting for an all-inclusive sporting getaway. The resort is a spring, summer and autumn destination. That

Bethel Inn Resort

he Bethel Inn Resort golf course in Bethel, Me. is a venerable layout, built over 100 years ago. The course takes full advantage of mountain vistas and the natural beauty of the area. Large, well-trapped greens, treelined fairways and five tee positions make play challenging for golfers of every ability. There is a pleasant mix of short and long par-fours, tough par-threes and demanding par-fives that will test the ability of golfers of all abilities. The course was just nine holes for a number years before an additional nine holes was added in 1988 to bring it to championship caliber. The course was redesigned and expanded by the renowned New England architect Geoffrey Cornish. The existing layout has been recognized not only for its natural beauty but also as a very good test of playing ability.
