Bridge at the Green

Reviewed By kolbow - Northville, United States

Sometimes it's the simple things that catch your attention after you have slowed down on your trip. The covered bridge and white church with the fall colors is a perfect example. Only a few miles west of Arlington, it a must see.

An exhibit focusing on Norman Rockwell's years in Arlington, 1939-1953. Rockwell used over 200 local models for his works. The exhibit displays reproductions of many of his works as well as stories about many of the townspeople who were his models.

Nice video and great images on the walls. A good glimpse at his work. Pretty complete look at his work.

We tubed down the ‘Kill and it was absolutely beautiful! Some shallow areas we got stuck but it was part of the adventure! Loved seeing stunning ducks and a beaver swim across. Lovely!

The Chocolatorium

Reviewed By TrainManDan10 - Keene, United States

My wife and I visited this shop for the second time. We each had a large cup of gelato, each with two scoops of different flavors, all wonderful! Upon entering, customers had to wear masks and sanitize their hands. We sat at the small table in front of the store, watching the world go by and listening to the nearby brook as we savored each bite!

We stopped in on the last day they were open last fall. We always visited when we were in VT. We will miss the congenial owner and the Truck Driver cheddar--the best!

Sugar Shack

Reviewed By 2mrching

The Sugar Shack has the most delicious variety of pies baked fresh daily and priced reasonably. If they don't have the one you want when you get there, no problem. They will pop one in the oven and it will be ready to go in an hour warm and smelling delectable. The apple, walnut, caramel is YUMMY!

This was the first stop on our trip to Vermont from New York. It is less than two minutes away from a beautiful covered bridge and less than 10 minutes away from the Hill Farm Inn B&B where we stayed. It has a fun TV area for viewing how chocolate is made and a children’s corner for coloring. The large Teddy Bear made of chocolate is pretty cool and they had a large selection of chocolates, fudge, candy and maple syrups. It’s definitely a fun shop to explore and I’m glad we visited.
