VUE

suites left us feeling as though we had rented our own luxe cabin in the mountains. Despite the resort being quite large, the Orvis suite evoked the feeling of hygge. Sitting on a sprawling 914 acres of land surrounded by mountains, The Equinox lives up to its name and features an impressively manicured golf course. The facility has been named one of the Top 75 Courses in the U.S. by Golf Digest and one of the Top 3 Golf Courses in Vermont by Golfweek. Whether expert or a novice, there are plenty of options for you to enjoy the greens as the resort offers golf instruction, membership packages, and stay-and-play options. While the namesake of the resort is its famed golf course, there are plenty of activities for families and couples to indulge in as well. The spa features a heated indoor pool, an outdoor hot tub, a tennis court, a gym, and fitness classes. We decided to embark on their Land Rover Experience, which is exactly what you might think it is. The resort assigned us our own Land Rover that we drove on an off-road adventure. Through creeks, dirt roads, hilly landscapes, and steep inclines, this was one of the highlights of our trip though not for the faint of heart. There are also plenty of other outdoorsy activities such as kayaking, fly fishing, disc golf, falconry school, and hiking trails. Finally, there are also laid-back activities such as movie nights for families, cooking smores at the resort's fire pits, and live music nights. V U E N J .C O M 103
