Golfweek recognizes OVGC

LUDLOW – A nationwide team of esteemed course raters from Golfweek recently named Okemo Valley Golf Club among its 2016 Best Resort Courses.

In a letter of congratulations, Golfweek vice president and publisher Jereme Day wrote: “Reserved exclusively for golf’s top resort layouts, this elite ranking is a remarkable accomplishment and a true testament to the quality of your course.”

Okemo Valley Golf Club is Vermont’s first heathland-style golf course and features a championship 18-hole layout, a welcoming, full-service clubhouse, indoor practice facility, putting greens, driving range and 18-acre state-of-the-art outdoor training center. The layout is a par 70 that measures 6,400 yards in length and features bent grass greens, tees and fairways with multiple tee areas for each hole, ensuring playability and challenge for all ability levels. Rolling hills, moderate elevation changes and wide fairways with well-placed hazards enhance the beautiful heathland layout.
