Must visit three places in Woodstock, Vermont

In Vermont , every place is engulfed in its unique beauty and charm. Last year, we visited Woodstock, and if you visit Woodstock, you must add these three places to your list, too. Quechee Gorge and Village - You can take a hot air balloon ride or walk on the bridge to witness this beauty. The deepest gorge in Vermont is 165 feet deep, located on Route 4.

Five things in Fall in Stowe, Vermont

I often love to escape from my mundane life to somewhere quaint, where I can let myself meld in nature and at the same time with the culture, the food, and this is what I often long for in my monotonous life.  I have visited many places in  Vermont,  but Stowe was on my list for a long time.  As the pandemic halted life for so many of us in several ways, I decided to visit Stowe in the fall.  Even though Stowe is popular with ski goers, the fall beauty of Stowe is unparalleled, as if nature has created its own leisure time.

Grist Mill, Weston , Vermont beyond postcard from the past

I'm sure that if you've followed my blog by now, you know how much I love to visit offbeat places. When it comes to offbeat places, Vermont immediately comes to mind. No matter how many times I visited, I still felt wanderlust. Visiting Vermont in the fall has its charm. The little rustic towns accentuate fall aesthetics and beauty, not just for your eyes but also for your soul. I often wonder and find it intriguing how these places maintain their beauty and tranquility in a time of scientific and technological advancement, when the rest of the world is in constant motion.  Here I was in a little piece of heaven called Weston. A little town was not so little when it came to its charm and beauty. This lovely little place, which adds aura and allure, is called the Grist Mill, built in 1780 and originally constructed as a lumber mill. Engulfed on the bank of West River, the mill is a sight to behold with the serene surroundings and tranquility of trees, a waterfall, and a tiny cre...

Picturesque farm, winding dirt roads, historic covered bridges, buildings are signature of quintessential small-town Vermont's fall charm and the world enfolds with never-ending beauty. Nestled in central Vermont , Woodstock is a fall wonderland when the autumn palette files with vivid colors and makes it an ultimate fall bucket list.  Not just nature in autumn, Woodstock's every nooks and corner is equally decked up from porches to patios to the gardens with the autumn vibe and almost turns into a festive vibe.
