Vermont: Whispers of Nature, Echoes of History
Vermont, nestled in the heart of New England, is more than just a landscape. It's a symphony of verdant mountains, sparkling lakes, and charming villages, where history whispers from every weathered barn and cobblestone street. Here, stories etched in maple syrup and maple sugaring buckets blend with the echoes of Revolutionary heroes and pioneer spirit.

Embrace the Rhythm of Nature:
Hike through a tapestry of fall foliage, vibrant with reds, oranges, and yellows. Breathe in the crisp mountain air and feel the crunch of leaves beneath your boots.

Ski Vermont's legendary powdery slopes in winter, carve fresh tracks across untouched snow, and warm up by crackling fireplaces in cozy lodges.

Paddle serene lakes and kayak meandering rivers in summer, spot elusive loons and osprey, and feel the sun-kissed warmth on your skin.

Bike scenic country roads in spring, past blooming apple orchards and fields bursting with wildflowers, the scent of maple mingling in the air.

Discover a Tapestry of Stories:
Explore charming towns like Manchester and Woodstock, where colonial architecture whispers of bygone eras, art galleries, and antique shops brim with treasures.
Walk in the footsteps of Revolutionary heroes at Bennington Battle Monument, and imagine the thunder of musket fire echoing through the hills.

Visit Shelburne Farms, a haven for agriculture and sustainability, learn about cheesemaking traditions, and taste award-winning cheddar produced on-site.
Immerse yourself in the vibrant arts scene of Burlington, catch a musical performance in an intimate theatre, or browse vibrant local art galleries.

Taste the Soul of Vermont:
Savor farm-to-table cuisine crafted with love, indulge in maple-glazed donuts still warm from the oven, and sip apple cider pressed from local orchards.

Fuel your adventures with craft beers made with pure Vermont water and locally sourced ingredients, and each sips a story.

Visit Ben & Jerry's ice cream factory, tour the production line, and indulge in a scoop (or two) of their famous flavors.

Stock up on locally-made jams, cheeses, and crafts at farmers markets, unique souvenirs that capture the essence of Vermont.

Vermont is more than a vacation destination; it's an experience. It's a place to reconnect with nature, explore rich history, and savor life's simple pleasures. Come, breathe deep the mountain air, and let Vermont tell you its story.

Great apartment on a beautiful horse farm
Really enjoyed our stay here. The apartment is very nice - has everything you need. Cozy but not overstuffed with furnishings so it feels very airy with views out over the farm. The horses, dogs and wild turkeys (!) were a treat for grandkids. Very convenient to Burlington, Winooski and Lake Champlain. Will definitely stay here again.

Another lovely stay
We are always glad to stay at the farm! We arrived late this past weekend and for the first time in many visits the front door was locked. It was no big deal to ask our hosts to let us in. It is always a familiar, convenient and easy stay. Thanks Dawn and George

Peaceful Getaway
The studio at the horse farm was perfect for my husband and I for a motorcycle riding get away. The farm setting was lovely and the space had everything we needed. The neighborhood was great for our morning walks. We enjoyed strolling the grounds and visiting the horses. My only suggestion is maybe a shelf in the bathroom, or a hook behind the door.
