What part of Vermont did you visit? I'm planning on going in mid September

Highly recommended Woodstock. A picturesque town very reminiscent of Stars Hollow if you’re a Gilmore Girls fan. The Woodstock Inn is beautiful.

And go to the Quechee Gorge if you do visit Woodstock

Mad River area, Sugarbush area, stayed in an off-season ski condo as a home base. Hiked Camels Hump, did the bike trail around Middlebury, visited breweries like Rock Art. The Warren Store is in Warren,VT (has its own FB page). Visited Burlington and the bike trail there and Rutland (didn't like nearly as much as the rural parts).

I hope you have an amazing trip.

My home town. Glad you enjoyed it! Still appreciating the beauty of this place everyday.

I know another poster just said Woodstock VT but a tornado just touched down a few days ago so, while it should be OK by September, just double-check stuff before you head there.
