👍👍 We just happened to be there as the ducks were migrating. Gorgeous.

👍👍 This is a great public recreation area. The restrooms and buildings are closed for winter but the park is still accessible. Lots of fun and we'll kept.

👍👍 I already liked Lake Champlain Chocolates from my quick visits to the storefront on Church Street. I expected this store to be similar, but I was wrong. This location was just renovated and it is wonderfully designed and features not only a store section to buy packaged chocolate and a counter to br...

Historic park featuring a playground, summer concerts, ice-skating & views of Lake Champlain.

👍👍 What a lovely and inexpensive way to spend a couple of hours taking in the beautiful sites of the water and the Burlington area! For $50 you can board the Spirit of Ethan Allen for a 1 1/2 hour boat tour. The price includes a buffet style brunch (which was absolutely fantastic!), a complimentary bev...

👍👍 We visited the Mad River distillery on our recent trip. This place is a short walk from Lake Champlain's waterfront park. We wished to experience the $8 tastings that they offered. They offered a unique and wide range of selections from vanilla rum to corn whisky. All the drinks tasted great and wer...

👍👍 OMG! We have been looking for a real Asian market since moving from Orlando and this is it! They not only had every single frozen, canned or mix item we were looking for but tons of fresh produce and lots of items I haven't bought before. Owner was SO friendly and accommodating, offered special orde...

😐 We were visiting from out of town and I had heard about the treehouse. While the treehouse is really cool to see, it didn't seem like it was located in a very safe area. As we were walking to the tree house at the bottom of it there were sleeping bags and trash as if people were sleeping there. We t...

👍👍 Wow, really interesting little local festival. Jam band music, family friendly, kids everywhere, microbrewery tents, and foodie food trucks with award winners galore. All locally sourced, and even had educational people running around explaining about their compostable plastic-type dinnerware. Fr...

👍👍 Phenomenal experience overall. Excellent food. Top-notch beer and cocktails. Great service. My family went multiple times while staying in Essex and we would recommend it without reservation to anyone in the area. It's kid-friendly, but also has a modern, grown-up vibe. On our first trip, we s...

👍👍 We were here in early June for a concert and it was awesome! So much room to spread out, lots of options for beer,and a whole bunch of food stands as well. It felt more like being at a festival than just going to see a show. Looking for an excuse to come back!

Rural estate featuring a refined B&B in a 1796 home & 20 miles of biking & cross-country ski trails.

👍👍 Even on a cloudy rainy day, the sunsets are great. What a serene place to visit!! Very ideal for young families. The paths were paved and it was very easy to navigate with a stroller.

👍👍 Whoever says this is not worth making the trip for just to see a giant filing cabinet, is WRONG. I've seen sculptures in Italy and this is still one of the most beautiful pieces of art I've ever seen. A filing cabinet? In the middle of a random parking lot? Are you kidding me? Why would you not make...
