Vermont is a fantastic place to visit year round. In fall, beautiful foliage engulfs the state, and pumpkin carving festivals and apple picking tours can be found in most small towns and cities. In spring the flowers bloom and things start to heat up. With the cold winter’s ending, outdoor cafes open and locals prepare for another wonderful beach season. When summer finally comes there are so many outdoor adventures to be had! Hike or bike the Green Mountain trails, visit Apple Hill Orchard and Farm in West Rutland or launch your boat and relax on the beach at Ricker Pond State Park. This winter spend a romantic weekend away in a Vermont vacation cabin or B&B up north, far away from the hustle and bustle of it all. A Vermont winter vacation is one of the most popular choices for skiers in the U.S. Vermont has over 18 great ski resorts to choose from. Visit the famous mountains of Killington, Stratton and Okemo, where trails are available for skiers and boarders from beginner levels to advanced.

Vermont is well known for its small, quaint towns, and relaxed daily pace. However if you’re looking for something a little more exciting, Burlington, Vermont, is one of the more 'cosmopolitan' cities in Vermont and a great place to visit on your Vermont vacation.

Stay in a luxury Vermont hotel in the evening and shop at unique, vintage boutiques and quaint shops in downtown Burlington during the day.

During your Vermont travels stop at the Vermont State House and the Historical Society Museum in scenic, old Montpelier, a city known for its rich New England heritage.
