Food scene

This is the closest restaurant to the house - only about 5 minutes down the road. "Farm to mouth dining at its best" as they say. Harry's has a great variety on their menu from steaks to scallops to Pad Thai (highly recommended!). They do take-out if you call early enough (before 8) but sometimes they are "too busy" to do takeout.

Sightseeing

A beautiful secluded lake about 10 minutes from the house offering swimming, canoeing, kayaking, fishing and more. There is a small parking lot and a boat launch. Just put "Hastings Ln, Mt Holly, VT" into the GPS. It says the road is private, but you can drive down it to get to the parking lot. No Beach really other than boat launch area but you're welcome to walk right in and swim.

Great place to bring or rent (from Kayak King) kayaks. Good chance of spotting Loons or Bald Eagles. On the Northeast edge of the pond (where Thundering Brook Rd becomes dirt) there's a trail that leads to a cool rope swing to swing into the water.

Hiking

From late spring to late fall, Drive up the road to the Okemo Mountain main Lodge, then take a right immediately after the lodge, and begin driving up the mountain in between the chairlifts. About 4.5mi up is a small parking lot. Then hike up about half mile to the old fire tower for breathtaking 360 degree views.

Beautiful easy hike only about a half mile out and back. Starts with a boardwalk through a beautiful field with wildflowers, blackberry & raspberry bushes, then goes into the woods to see the waterfall which you can then climb up to the top (pretty steep, but very cool).
