Things To Do
Whetstone Station Restaurant and Brewery
The great location on the water means great views but it also means crowds, call ahead if you can. 60+ craft beers, pub fare and because of its location you can drink a beer standing in both NH and VT at the same time!
Madame Sherri Forest & House
Look closely you might miss it on the road. It's less than a half mile walk to the front steps of Madame Sherri mansion. Even if the parking lot is packed there are plenty of trails so things aren't too crowded. There's a moderate loop with a beautiful pond view.
Beer Naked Brewery & Pizzapalooza
On the top of Hogback mountain; views, beers and pizza abound with mostly rave reviews!
Chesterfield Gorge Natural Area
Chesterfield Gorge Natural Area spans 13 acres. It offers great opportunities for hiking as you explore the footpaths along the gorge and enjoy the scenic views.
Hermit Thrush Brewery
Cozy little space. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Only sour beers, so if that's not your thing this isn't the brewery for you. If it is your thing, you need to try their beer.
Living Memorial Park/BMC
A great local park for free entertainment! Picnic areas, pool, basketball, tennis, softball, theater and more!
Saxtons River Distillery & Fire Arts Glass Blowing Gallery
Tours and tastings behind one door and glass blowing and art behind another!
Green Mountain Orchards Inc
A gorgeous local farm stand offering apple cider, baked goods, pick-your-own and horse drawn wagon rides by appointment.
Peter Havens Restaurant
Refined New American cuisine with a focus on seafood, crafted in a snug bistro setting. Good reviews, fairly expensive, but the Colonel Williams Innkeeper couldn't more highly recommend.
Scott Farm Orchard
Another beautiful farm & orchard to visit!
Tito's Taqueria
Tito's is an amazing Mexican Stand with a great value tacos and burritos. The meats are great and heat depends on the salsa you choose. Use the online ordering to avoid the rush!
Grafton Village Cheese Company
VT Specialty Cheese and Wine. There is a wide variety of local cheese, salsa, sauces, jellies, jams, honey and random gifts. You can sample most things but not the wine.
Hogback Mountain Country Store
Great gift shop. Nice staff. Prices are somewhat reasonable, which is rare for a gift shop. If they are still sampling the cinnamon pear jam, be sure to try it. Also, ice cream, maple lollipops and Joe's Tea are available, which is pretty great.
Retreat Farm
For the inner farm child, the staff is incredibly friendly and informative. There are trails, a nature playground, and the cheese store next door was an added bonus! Prices are reasonable.
Downtown Brattleboro
Brattleboro is the artistic and energetic hub for Southern Vermont. Coming from every direction, miles of mountain roads converge in our lively & eclectic downtown. Cafes, galleries, live music, breweries, museums, boutiques, an Art Deco movie theater, a Food Coop, and fantastic dining options.
White Water Rafting!
Just 35 minutes from Brattleboro over the state line in MA, this place has great white water rafting if you're up for some adventure wedding week!
