Vermont by the Vacation Rental People

Visiting Vermont and New York

Vermont is situated on the northeastern seaboard of the United States. It is one of the least populous states in the country, and as such is renowned for the beauty of its vast natural areas. It is particularly noted for the riot of colour that greets visitors in autumn when the leaves change colour. Without a doubt, this place is an excellent destination for anyone seeking a relaxing vacation. It would be best to browse VacationRentalPeople.com to find the best accommodations and holiday rentals in this place. Vermont is an outdoor-lover’s paradise. In summer, the parklands and mountains provide ample opportunity for hiking, while in winter, skiers and snowboarders can explore one of the northeast’s largest ski areas. However, Vermont offers a whole lot more of the visitor, and it is ideally placed to further explore other areas of the country.

Getting There

Direct flights from the UK to Vermont take around eight hours, with most landing at Burlington International Airport. The state’s popularity as a holiday destination means that visitors, particularly those able to be flexible with their holiday dates, can shop around for a good deal.

Killington

Besides the state capital Montpelier and the most populous city, Burlington, the area of Rutland is a particular favourite base for visitors to Vermont. Of particular note is the town of Killington, renowned for its dining options. For a town of fewer than 1,000 permanent inhabitants, its restaurants are plentiful and varied. This is in part due to the influx of winter vistors to the Killington ski resort. Travellers in Killington can eat everything from Spanish tapas and nouvelle cuisine to traditional rustic fare.

New York State

Vermont’s relatively small size means that it easy for the traveller, particularly one with an automobile to explore beyond the state’s borders. One of the most popular options for a two centre break is New York which sits to the west. To get from Burlington to New York City is only around four hours drive time, passing through the foothills of the Adirondack mountains. So visitors can experience the natural wonder of Vermont and the ‘city that never sleeps’.

New Hampshire

Well known for its lakes and the skiing opportunities offered by the White Mountains, New Hampshire sits to the east of Vermont. Its state parks and local markets make for a relaxing rural retreat. Rent a cabin on a lake shore for real tranquility.

Massachusetts

Much more populous than Vermont is Massachusetts, which lies at it’s southern border. The large metropolitan areas of Boston and Springfield offer a host of urban distractions – bars, clubs, restaurants and shops – that make for a pleasing contrast with the natural expanses of Vermont. It is also rich in history and visitors can explore the history of the Pilgrims who landed there.
