Question Vermont anyone???

DH and I are trying to plan a quick trip to Vermont in Dec. Honestly we don't even know where to begin. We are originally from the West Coast and always wanted to go to Vermont (it's the movies, they make it seem so snowy and romantic cheesy, I know). Anyone have any ideas?? Where should we go, nice places to stay?? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Stowe is really nice. The village has lots of cute shops and restaurants. We went in the begining of Dec several years ago and stayed at the Trapp Family Lodge which was wonderful. Unfortunatly when we were there it was 70 degrees so it didn't feel that Christmasy. Stowe is close to Vt Teddy Bear Factory and Ben and Jerry's.

See the TR on this forum about Vermont and the Von Trappe Family Lodge. It sounds fabulous.

Burlington International Airport is probably where you'll be flying into. Burlington itself is a college town with nice restaurants and has a nice waterfront. If you come in the summer, a lake cruise tour is a most. The farms are also nearby and the mountains as well. It is very accessible to whatever you are looking for.

Oh, to be in Vermont!!! We used to live across the lake from VT and would always take a ferry over for shopping, dinner and fun!

Burlington is a college town and always is a happening place. There still is a great downtown area! Lots of shops and restaurants. In one part of town is a great mall with even more little shops to check out. They have one of my favorite restaurants near the mall - Trader Dukes. Very comfy!!! The bar area has these absolutely amazing comfortable chairs! You can even order dinner and sit back and relax in them. But my favorite spot to eat is right by the fireplace! Heaven! In another part of town is a great restaurant, Windjammer. They have delicious steak and seafood.

Then there is Shelbourne. This is where you will find the Vermont Teddy Bear Factory, maple syrup shops, the Shelbourne Museum and more great shops!

And as mentioned, Stowe. It is a fun place! Ben and Jerrys! Lots of shops and restaurants, skiing and more.
Here's a great link for Stowe:
Official Guide to Stowe Vermont: Hotels, Skiing Vacations – Resorts , Lodging, Dining, Spa

This is out of the way, but I have to mention it -- Middlebury. It's another college town -- not much more there! But it has the best restaurant I've ever eaten at in my life! Seriously! Fire and Ice. Everything is delicious, especially the house specialties - the Fire and Ice drink and steak.

Have a blast! I'm really jealous right now!!!
