This part of the Northeast Kingdom has long been a favorite for outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy skiing, snowshoeing, ice fishing, hiking, and micro-brewery tours. Our own Craftsbury Outdoor Center is connected to over 105 km of premier Nordic Ski trails which we can access through the Highland lodge in less than 5 minutes from the house. Within an hour’s drive, Stowe Mountain Resort, Smuggler’s Notch and Jay Peak offer Alpine skiing. Nearby, the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail is easily accessed for snowmobiling, walking, and Nordic skiing.
This area is popular with writers, painters, and photographers. It is also a favorite for foodies and craft-beer lovers. Our community is proud of its local products, including Hill Farmstead Brewery (a less than 10 minute drive), Jasper Hill Cheesery, Buffalo Mountain Market (Hardwick), Bar Hill Gin (Bar Hill Nature Preserve is less than 1 mile from the house) and many local eateries.
