Enjoy small town Vermont living at it's best in the villages of Bristol and Middlebury, or in the city of Vergennes, home to Basin Harbor where you'll find wholesome family fun, romance, and recreational sports for every conceivable type. Stroll the streets of our towns, golf with a mountain view, bike through farm country, kayak on Lake Champlain, attend a weekly band concert on the green in Bristol, dine in elegance, or just sit in an Adirondack chair and watch the sunset. It's hard not to find some recreational activity at any time of the year in Addison County.
The U.S. Forest Service maintains numerous camping, hiking, fishing and hunting areas in the Green Mountain National Forest east of Middlebury. Be it bird-watching or biking--Addison County has something for everyone. When snow covers the land, skiers of every ability will find groomed cross-country trails at many locations.
There is no limit to the cultural and entertainment offerings of Addison County. Stop by to see the stylized displays at the Frog Hollow Vermont State Craft Center in Middlebury. Artists and craftspeople thrive in the creative and scenic atmosphere of our area. History comes alive at the Mount Independence and Hubbardton Battlefield State Historic Sites, and the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum near Lake Champlain. In Pittsford, south of the villages of Middlebury and Brandon on Route 7 is the New England Maple Museum which offers a trip through over 200 years of maple sugaring history.
