Woodstock Athletic Club

Year-round indoor play at the Woodstock Inn’s club.

The Woodstock Inn & Resort’s athletic club, a mile and a half south of the village on Route 106, has pickleball lines on select indoor courts, so play goes on through mud season and winter. A resident pickleball pro runs weekly clinics, cardio pickleball and a Friday open session, and the club hosts learn-to-play pop-ups for beginners. Inn guests get the club’s gym, pool and classes included, which makes a game an easy add-on to a classic Vermont weekend.
