🌊🚣♀️ Cool off Like a Local 🚣♀️🌊
Summer in Vermont is all about getting outside, and there’s no better way to beat the heat than discovering one of the area’s beautiful swimming holes, waterfalls, rivers, or lakes. Whether you’re looking for a quick afternoon dip, a scenic hike to a waterfall, or a relaxing day by the water, you’ll find plenty of refreshing spots just a short drive from the Inn.
Check out a few of our favorite places to cool off below, and don’t hesitate to ask our team for recommendations before you head out!
Moss Glen Falls
One of Vermont’s most iconic waterfalls, Moss Glen Falls is just minutes from the Inn and features a short, easy walk to a stunning 125 foot cascade. While it’s a beautiful spot to cool off, it’s generally considered a wading & splashing spot rather than a proper swimming hole.
Waterbury Reservoir
One of the area’s most popular summer destinations, Waterbury Reservoir is perfect for swimming, kayaking, paddleboarding, and picnicking. With sandy beaches, scenic mountain views, and easy access, it’s a great place to spend a relaxing day on the water. On site equipment rentals available.
Bingham Falls
A local favorite, Bingham Falls is reached by a short hike through the woods and rewards visitors with a beautiful waterfall, deep pools, and scenic rock formations. It’s a popular spot for cooling off on hot summer days, but be sure to use caution around the slippery rocks and swift water.
Sterling Pond
Tucked high in the mountains, Sterling Pond is one of Vermont’s highest-elevation trout ponds and rewards hikers with crystal-clear water and breathtaking alpine views. The moderate hike makes the refreshing scenery well worth the effort, making it a favorite for outdoor enthusiasts.
