Skiing in Vermont isn't just an activity: it's a lifestyle that locals and frequent visitors have wholeheartedly adopted.
It's about the hunt for the perfect stretch of powder. It's about spending your days flying down a Green Mountains slope and
your nights enjoying a delectable meal from an award-winning restaurant.
For those of you who believe bigger really is better, Killington offers the opportunity to get lost on the largest ski and
snowboard resort in eastern North America. Recent improvements to the 50-plus year-old resort have made it better than ever.
Okemo Mountain Resort provides modern amenities, a vertical of 2,200 feet, and runs for all abilities. Stowe Mountain Resort
sits on Mt. Mansfield, Vermont's highest peak (4,395 ft.), lends itself to longer trails and loads of charm.
Many Endless Vacation Rentals properties put you at or near these favored ski destinations and offer amenities such as heated
outdoor pools to soothe those aching muscles so you can enjoy yet another day on the slopes.
Don't like to ski? That's OK. The beauty and charm of Vermont isn't lost on those who prefer to avoid the slopes. Skate on
a frozen pond, shop for local arts and crafts, build a snowman - or simply après ski back at your Endless Vacation Rentals
bed and breakfast or resort.
Warmer weather offers other opportunities to enjoy the clapboard villages of this fair state: windsurfing and sailing on the
Inland Sea, exploring the state's farms, vineyards and maple sugarhouses, fly fishing for trout along a quiet stream - whatever
your heart desires - proving anytime is a great time to make Vermont your vacation home.

of life how to make everything from gourmet pizza to Moroccan cuisine.
The Mist Grill (Waterbury). Start your day at the Mist Grill, where the fresh coffee and pancakes with diced Vermont apples
will prepare you for the day ahead - and the incredible views of the waterfalls will stay with you even longer.

few of our favorites: Stowe Mountain, Okemo Mountain, Killington and Burke Mountain.
Go sledding. Grab your snowshoes, strap your sled on your back and head up the nearest hill for thrill that's sure to make
you young again. If maximum speed is your objective, a pair of Vermont-based companies (Mad River Rocket Company and Hamerhead
Sleds) produce performance sleds. Great hills for sledding include Burlington Country Club in Burlington, Marshall Hill in
Stowe and Landry Park in Winooski.

in 1939. The museum, a short day-trip from Killington, features a complete collection of Rockwell's Saturday Evening Post
covers and is open year-round, except holidays.
