"Northeast Kingdom" is a term used passionately throughout Vermont and beyond when referring to the corner of the state against the Canadian Border and the upper Connecticut River. The Northeast Kingdom received its nickname over 50 years ago in honor of its sheer splendor. The term suggests an enviable and sought-after quality of life and without a doubt, the state's most beautiful and undisturbed region. The Kingdom offers breath-taking scenery, outstanding lodging and dining, ecotourism and agritourism, Vermont made products, and recreational opportunities which have gained the Northeast Kingdom national and international recognition.
Occupying the northeast corner of Vermont, the "Northeast Kingdom" represents nearly one-fifth of Vermont's land mass and over 1/4 of it's water, with over 200 lakes and ponds. The area is densely forested, and rich in New England history. You'll find refreshing farm stands, inviting restaurants, charming inns, eclectic museums and antique shops.
An outdoor lover's paradise, the "Kingdom Trails" are rated as one of the top five mountain biking networks in the world. The Northeast Kingdom also has eight state parks, some of which have camping facilities. There are cabin rentals on all our major lakes including Seymour, Willoughby, Joe's Pond, Harvey's Lake, Memphremagog, Crystal and Island Pond, to name our larger lakes. It has been said that the area could be the country's largest theme park, the theme being nature.
Good ole' New England charm and hospitality await your arrival.
