Rutland Vermont from the 17th Tee at Rutland Country Club

Just a perfect day in Vermont. Temperatures in the mid 70's, plenty of sunshine, and beautiful scenery. if only the golf were better... so to goes...

Today we headed west out of Killington for a round of golf with friends at Rutland Country Club. I always enjoy playing RCC this time of year. The course is always in great shape. The greens are killers as usual. But the views from around the course just say Vermont in the fall.

Rutland Vermont is for the most part a city of short squat buildings. Barely visible above the trees, the brick buildings downtown just blend with the fall colors of the trees. One is left with the quintessential picture of white church steeples rising to the heavens through the fall foliage, with the Green Mountains as a backdrop. Just perfect!

Fall Foliage season is getting underway at Killington, and winter is just around the corner. We at the Birch Ridge Inn look forward to greeting you when you visit.
