Things To Do
Go mountain biking!
Did we plan a wedding in Vermont as an excuse to revisit some our favorite mountain biking trails? ;) Cady Hill in Stowe is one of our all time favorite places to mountain bike! The trails behind American Flatbread (e.g., Evolution and Cyclone) are also a lot of fun and Blueberry Lake is a great option for beginners! Stay tuned for more info on mountain bike rentals.
Go for a hike!
There is no shortage of hiking to be done in the area! We've made a list of a few we've done at the link below.
Warren Falls
Fun little swimming hole, but it does get crowded. There are a ton of unnamed/"secret" swimming holes in the area that a little web research may reveal if you're looking for somewhere to cool off.
Drink some beer!
There are no shortage of great beer options in Vermont! Here are a few places we recommend: - Hill Farmstead: a little bit of a trek, but 100% worth it for some of the best beer out there - Lawson's Finest Liquids: get a freshly brewed Sip of Sunshine right in Waitsfield - The Alchemist: if hoppy beer is what you want, Heady Topper is consistently one of the top ranked beers in the world - Idletyme Brewing Company: their back patio is a great place to hang out and enjoy a beer - If you decide to check out Burlington, Burlington Beer Company and Foam are two of our favorites there
Eat some food!
- Mad Taco: Good tacos right in Waitsfield - The Warren Store: Quintessential Vermont general store with a deli and bakery - American Flatbread: Pizza in a great farmhouse setting - Hender's Bakery: We dream about their maple cruellers and breakfast sandwiches - Cold Hollow Cider Mill: Since LDW is the unofficial end of summer, get in the fall mood with some apple cider and doughnuts - Canteen Creemee: Maple creemees are a Vermont staple, so we feel obligated to list this as a food option, but we may or may not be providing an opportunity to eat these ;) - Hen of the Woods: Upscale restaurant that we have yet to go to, but is supposed to be delicious! Reservations needed. - Madbush Falls: New hotel with an all-day restaurant that is supposed to be great. They will have bluegrass band playing during lunch on Sunday.
