Things To Do
Wander the Waitsfield Farmers Market
Waitsfield's world renown farmers market is a Saturday Morning staple, and one of our favorite places to visit! Pop over any time from 9am-1pm on Saturday for live music, a bite of breakfast, awesome vendors, and LOTS of dogs.
Stop for a wake up call at KS Coffee LLC
We love this queer, woman-owned tiny-house coffee shop... and we think you will too! Try a maple latte for the true Vermont fuel-up.
Visit a local shop on Bridge Street
At the heart of Waitsfield sits this sweet row of shops leading up to a beautiful covered bridge over the Mad River. Pop over for artisan goods, a cup of coffee, and a view of the river.
Savor a sip of Lawson’s Finest Liquids
The perfect place for a good beer, good lunch, and good vibes!
Go for a dip… or a leap! at Warren Falls
A quintessential VT swimming hole — think cool mountain water and plenty of rocks to jump from. An awesome spot, even for the faint of heart! *Note - this spot requires a small but tricky descent to the water*
Hike the Sunset Ledge Trail
This short, steep hike lets out to gorgeous views. A perfect adventure if you don’t have much time and are craving a climb!
Pick wildflowers at Blueberry Lake
Head to our favorite lake for a calm swim with a beautiful view — and stay to pick wildflowers or brave the thickets around the lake and pick wild blueberries!
Dip your toes in the Mad River at Lareau Park
The perfect little beach for a river dip, right near town.
Enjoy a taco at The Mad Taco
We recommend the house-smoked brisket and all the hot sauce your heart desires.
Delight in a classic “Creemee” at Canteen Creemee Company
Pop by Canteen for the best creemee (soft serve!) in the valley. Try our favorite — maple with chocolate sprinkles.
Find local delicacies at 5th Quarter Butcher + Provisions
Say hi to Evan at the cheese counter!
Order a giant pickle at The Warren Store
A great stop for sandwiches, drinks, and a lovely view while you enjoy!
