Why we love this place
Ekwanok is a living piece of American golf history, one of Walter Travis's first designs and the only Vermont course ever to host a USGA championship. We love standing where Francis Ouimet won the 1914 U.S. Amateur, on a classic layout that has guarded its quiet dignity for over a century.

About Ekwanok Country Club
Ekwanok Country Club was established in 1899 in Manchester, Vermont, with course construction completed by the summer of 1900. It marked the first design collaboration between Walter Travis, then an emerging amateur champion, and John Duncan Dunn, a Scottish-born architect from the renowned Dunn golfing family. Ekwanok was among the earliest American courses shaped by men with real championship experience, and it earned immediate acclaim; Travis held it in the highest esteem throughout his life. The club's crowning moment came in 1914, when it hosted the U.S. Amateur, still the only USGA championship ever held in Vermont. In that 36-hole final, Francis Ouimet, fresh off his historic 1913 U.S. Open triumph, defeated defending champion Jerome Travers, 6 and 5. After that championship, the private club quietly stepped back from the national stage.
