It’s that time of year again… Fall has graced us with her presence!
If you’re looking to make a Vermont Fall getaway, you’re in the right place. In this guide, I share everything you need to know for the perfect trip to Vermont in the Fall! And yes, I always spell Fall with a “F”. Respect. 😉
Read on as I share where to eat, drink, stay and play. I also give tips on what to pack and more!

Ladies & Gentlemen, it’s Fall
No matter what age you are, if you are a woman, you automatically get that unexplained tingle in your veins every time Fall rolls around. You don’t need a calendar to know that it is officially pumpkin spice latte season, sweater weather, boot time….whatever you call it… You’ve been pinning away all year for this moment.
If you are a guy, it’s a different story. You’re not on Pinterest. Instead, you’re in your car. Fall gives the perfect excuse to go for a drive. Gentlemen, get ready to break out the flannel, update your GPS and buckle up, because you’re in for an adventure!
But, don’t worry. For every pumpkin patch, apple orchard or Fall festival you’ll be taken to, there is also Octoberfest, sizzling sausages and amazing distilleries calling your name.
Ok, ok, don’t get on me… it’s not gender defining, just a generalization I’m going with… and you can’t argue with Miss Iliza Schlesinger, Queen of the Millennials.
Speaking of Millennials, it’s time to put down our phones and unplug in Vermont.

Best Time to See Fall foliage in Vermont
Late September to mid / late October is when Vermont’s beautiful colors are at their peak. Check out my Vermont Fall Roadtrip blog to discover the best ways to enjoy Fall foliage and scenic drives in Vermont.
Tips for Your Vermont Getaway
- Always call ahead for business hours, don’t trust Google alone
- Make reservations (restaurants, hotels, activities, etc.) well in advance. Fall is one of New England’s busiest times of year. Not to mention the conflict that comes from staff shortages.
- Check whether the business or activity you’re booking requires COVID vaccination. I’m aware that some B&Bs require it.
Travel Resources
After traveling the last 170+ days/ yr. the last several years, I can honestly tell you, there’s nothing like traveling prepared, even with a chronic illness.

If there’s anything Vermont should be known for, its their lively art and culture scene which is abundant with artistic individuals who flock to the state to embrace this expressive way of life that brings them closer to others. Here are a few places to check out on your Vermont Fall journey.
- Visit a Museum
With 39 buildings on 45 acres, Shelburne Museum is one of Vermont’s most popular cultural attractions offering Northern New England’s largest collection of art and history.

Where to Eat in Vermont

Luckily, there is an endless array of delicious options for you to enjoy this Fall in Vermont from local farms serving up homemade ice cream, cheese and maple syrup goodies to farm-to-table restaurants getting creative with seasonal dishes that possess all the flare of Fall..
Restaurants with a View
- Simon Pearce Glassware Shop & Restaurant | Quechee, VT
There’s only one way to enjoy foliage at lunch time… Outside, on the patio, overlooking a waterfall.
You might have heard of the store, Simon Pearce, who boasts a reputation for creating beautiful blown glass creations. Well, in the town of Quechee, they’re also known for their delectable fare as well which is made in a 19th century mill sitting on the Ottauquechee River. They don’t hesitate to entertain the “extra” in all of us. Go ahead, order an old fashioned in a flask. 😉
- Leunig’s Restaurant | Burlington, VT
It was such a convenient spot while we were visiting Burlington that we ended up dining here twice in one weekend.. first for lunch, then the next day for dinner. The outside has a nice “Fall is in the air” enviornment with small town cobblestone street feels and plenty of people watching to be done. Inside of the restaurant is lively with ambience. I ordered steak and red wine, it was so fine. 😉
- Thyme Restaurant | White River Junction, VT
The restaurant is bistro style. I opted for outdoors to get that small town Vermont feel. It wasn’t long before I was taken to my happy place. Start with the crispy fries. End with the apple almond tart. It’s to die for! Had to take some home with me. Oh, and the duck confit was pretty good too. 😆
- Pangea Restaurant | North Bennington, VT
The view is really lovely outside. I watched a duck family go into the water. The food was pretty good too.
Farm to Table Restaurants
If you want an authentic farm to table dining experience, look no further than these Vermont eateries who plan their menu around what’s in season, sourcing fresh, local ingredients from independent, small and family owned businesses.
- Michael’s on the Hill | Waterbury Center, VT
Expect to find Fall comfort food like roasted squash soup, smoked maple syrup glazed pork shank and truffled mushroom gnocchi with Fall vegetables. Chef tasting menus are also available.

Sweets

Despite its name, this chocolatier offers a selection of chocolates in theme with Fall.

Take a stop at this popular Vermont hangout. Here, you can get fresh bread, seasonal baked goods like apple walnut bread, cinnamon rolls, hot cider, even lunch. Then, stop by their store and pick up some flour. You can even watch them bake things or, take a baking class.
- Lake Champlain Chocolates
If you spend enough time in Vermont, you’ll start to hear of Lake Champlain chocolates, named after the state’s famous lake. The chocolates are actually really good. On a trip to Vermont as a teen, I brought some home. It was one of my first encounters with quality chocolate. Snickers never quite tasted the same after that. 😉
Munch Along Vermont’s Cheese Trail 🧀
Time to get your cheese on. At these farms, you can meet the people behind Vermont’s oh so heavenly creamy confections like cheese, ice cream anddd.. well, I’ll just leave you to discover it.
For the record, I’m lactose intolerant but, alas, I can’t resist good cheese. I don’t leave the house without my Lactaid pills. (Check with your doc before taking!)
Farms
A lot of these farms have their own special experience. Call ahead for tours. In addition to cheese, many also offer meats, homemade ice cream, maple syrup and other delicious goodies in their farm store. Bring cash.
- Shelburne Farm | Shelburne, VT
When you first pull up to this farm, whose property is a 3,800 acre agricultural estate dating back to the 1800s, you’re greeted with a farm store that has an assortment of vegetables, cheeses and other grazing board goodies. Look beyond and you’ll see a wide open field with people walking on the paths.
Don’t worry, the long walk will be well worth it. Sometimes, tractor shuttles are also available. I’ve even seen people riding horses, maybe the Queen was there.. I don’t know. 😁
You’ll know when you arrive when you see the most regal looking farm you’ve probably ever seen. It’s immaculate.
There are several tours you can enjoy throughout the Fall like “Sun to Cheese”, “A Gardener’s Tour of the Formal Gardens” or, “Mushroom Foray”. You can even visit the farm animals or take a tractor ride from the farm store. I took a cheese tour and bought some goodies back at the store for a lovely picnic later.
For the hiker in you, enjoy one of the many walking trails spanning 10 miles. 1/2 mile roundtrip from the farm is, “Lone Tree Hill”, a beautiful viewing spot.
- Billings Farm & Museum | Woodstock, VT
If you’re looking for an all in one farm, this is the farm of all farms. Not only are they a farm, they’re also a museum and hold many events for the whole family like Farm to Ballet, National Ice Cream Day, 4th on the Farm, Thanksgiving, Christmas and more! In the Fall, expect a Harvest Celebration and a Halloween festival! They even have 21+ only events like “Moos, Brews & Cocktails Too” as well as Date Night Cooking Classes.
- Dakin Farm | Ferrisburgh, VT
Stop by and get your hands on some smoked corn cob cheese. It’s delicious with a slice of sausage, salami or just by itself! You can also get other goodies like a breakfast kit or a honey baked smoked ham, which I had delivered for the holidays.
- Cabot’s Farmer’s Store | Waterbury Center, VT
If you live in the US, without a doubt, you’ve probably seen Cabot cheese at your grocery store. This is a great cheese store to check out if you like a mix of educational tour and sampling cheese! I went when I was a teenager and never looked back.
- Norwich Farm Creamery | Norwich, VT
They sell creamery products, along with eggs, pork, beef, cheese, and sometimes more.
Other Vermont Cheese Farms
Where to Have a Drink in Vermont
If there’s one thing Vermont has no shortage of, it’s distilleries and breweries. In fact, the state has more per capita than any other in the US. I’m all about supporting the community and like stopping by different places, many of which craft their beer and spirits with locally sourced ingredients from small, independent and family-owned Vermont businesses.
Distilleries in Vermont 🍸
- Vermont Distillers, Metcalfe’s Fine Liquor & Spirits | Marlboro, VT
After discovering what a gem Vermont Distillers was, I had to come back for a picnic. The view of Hogback Mountain was gorgeous. We also sampled their offerings which ranges from GF vodka, Vermont moonshine to flavored bourbons like maple and honey.
- Vermont Spirits | White River Junction, VT
Last Fall, I had so much fun doing a collaboration with them. See it here. I discovered them after a trip to Vermont and have loved their spirits ever since. Their best seller, No. 1 Bourbon is dangerously smooth. They also have a great selection of gins and their award-winning vodka made with pure maple tastes good in any cocktail. Get one of the recipes here.
- Killington Distillery – Still on the Mountain | Killington, VT
This distillery doubles as a farm to table restaurant. Here, you can enjoy their spirits like Coconut infused vodka and Caribbean style rum distilled from cane sugar cakes. They also serve delicious cocktails for every ones taste buds.
But, we can’t let distilleries have all the spotlight.
Breweries in Vermont 🍺
If you’re a beer lover, get ready to drink to your heart’s delight on Vermont’s Brewery Trail (drink responsibly of course).
- Whetstone Brewing Co. | Brattleboro, VT
Turns out, you can have your beer and drink it too… with a view. 😉
Where else to grab a drink…

Post COVID, they constructed an outdoor patio area where you can order cocktails from the window. They’ll even set you up with cocktails to go. Order a charcuterie board and enjoy the crisp Fall ambiance.
- The Tap House at Catamount Glass | Bennington, VT
Very energetic pub with a great beer selection and tasty pub food!
- Shelburne Vineyard | Shelburne, VT
Vineyards… in Vermont? Who would have thought! Not only is their wine tasty, it’s also playful. They offer flights to the theme of popular TV shows like Schitt’s Creek and Friends. I ordered a flight of Moira and Johnny. And let’s talk about the views of this vineyard from above.. simply gorgeous, especially in the Fall. Their charcuterie and cheese platters are also delicious. They offer local cheeses as well as salamis from other countries like Spain. If you order a glass of wine, you get to take it home as a souvenir.
- SILO Distillery | Windsor, VT
And because it’s Fall after all, how about an adult drink with apples? Known for their champagne cider with apples from Monsalvat Farm in Barnard, Vermont. You can even ship some home to you. How about hard cider?
- The Whiskey Room | Burlington, VT
After dinner, grab a drink inside this tavern with loads of old world charm.

After you lay all your adventures to rest for the day, it’s time to reset.
Where to Stay in Vermont
From resorts, B&Bs, Inns, and entire Airbnb homes to glamping yurts, treehouses, cabins and farmhouses, Vermont has every lodging option imaginable.
Tips for Booking a Hotel
- Vermont is in high demand in the Fall. Always book your hotel well in advance to secure the lodging you want.
- Choose a central area for booking a hotel and take daytrips to surrounding towns in the area.
- If you’re on a budget, book a hotel during the week when rates are typically cheaper.
Cozy cabin in the woods
- Airbnbs
There are lots of Airbnbs that offer treehouses and cabins. I stayed at one in South Dover for over a month and loved it.
- Sterling Ridge Resort
Stay in a log cabin, roast some smores and explore Fall foliage in the woods!
- Moose Meadow Lodge & Treehouse | Waterbury, VT
If you want a retreat with all the cabin feels, this is your spot. You’ll be surrounded by mountains, trees and a trout pond on their 86 acre property which accommodates up to 12 people. Go up to the cabin’s glass enclosed skyloft which has serene views of nature.
- Restored Farmhouse on Lake Champlain | Grand Isle, VT
Enjoy this charming lake front property nestled in nature. It’ll surely make for a laid back fall whether you’re with friends, family or your significant other.
Charming bed & breakfasts
The Village Inn | Woodstock, VT
This B&B has all the charm of its historic town. You’ll even notice vintage trunk suitcases that the owner has collected over the years. Even the room had an old timey feel to it. Overall, my stay was really comfortable. The breakfast menu changes everyday. I had pumpkin french toast with local Vermont syrup & sausage. They also have cocktail at night. Have a look around the B&B. You’ll find a lot of interesting art pieces or oddities.
Glamping
- Parker Hill Farm & Boutique Campground | Springfield, VT
Rated as Vermont’s #1 campground on TripAdvisor, I’d argue that this experience is more like glamping. But, that’s just me. No need to get fancy with terms.
- Green Mountain Tiny House
Picture a tiny house but like really country farm chic in the middle of the woods.
A more elegant affair…
- Mountain Top Inn & Resort | Chittenden, VT
Not only does this 740-acre property have some of the most stunning views you’re going to find while eating a pork brisket sandwich, their chefs also know how to win you over. Yum yums served poolside and packed picnics to take on pontoon boat adventures through Vermont’s fall foliage? Umm… Yes please! Sign me up babe. Book here.
- Castle Hill Resort & Spa | Proctorsville, VT
This is about the closest thing you can get to an English countryside style manor in Vermont. Surrounded by the a lush, colorful forest in the Green Mountains come Fall, this hotel is listed on the National Historic Hotels of America.
Rustic farmhouse chic…
- The Inn at Shelburne Farms | Shelburne, VT
If you appreciate the feel of a rustic country farmhouse but want a more elegant and sophisticated experience mixed with cozy B&B vibes, try this grand Inn at Shelburne Farms. It’s simply breathtaking how gorgeous the property is.
- Big Picture Farm | Townshend, VT
We are talking about a farmhouse with hella rustic vibes. Get to know Big Picture Farm’s happy goats (who each have their own cartoon btw), sample their award winning caramels made with goats’ very own milk and stay at the property’s farmhouse.
Modern with amenities..
- Hilton Burlington Lake Champlain | Burlington, VT
My stay here was really enjoyable. I’m a big theme queen and loved how they decorated the outside of the hotel for Fall. The view from my room was beautiful. I had a lake backdrop against the Fall foliage. The smores they offered by their bonfire was a nice touch as well. Highly recommend this stay for the Fall.
- Courtyard Burlington Harbor | Burlington, VT
When it comes to Marriott properties, the travel junkie perks collector is a little biased. I’m all about the perks baby. If you want peace of mind knowing that your hotel will be clean with great customer service and modern amenities, give this hotel a shot. Fall foliage surrounds the property making the view from your hotel room absolutely stunning. They even have fire pits to snuggle up to outside.
That’s a Wrap!
