With towns like Randolph, Quechee and Woodstock, Eastern Vermont is primarily a rural area with historic sites, quiet tranquil towns and villages. The Woodstock-Quechee Region associates itself with wild flowers and colorful fall foliage. The small town of Fairlee is home to the Lake Morey Resort 
with fine dining options, summer and winter activities to suit your sense of adventure, and a Children's Program that provides kids with amusement and adults with some precious time alone.
Today, Randolph is a lively center of trade and agriculture, offering beautiful natural surroundings to residents and visitors alike. While in Randolph, visit the Chandler Center for the Arts. The Chandler has a rich program of visiting artists and local entertainment. They also host plays, musicals, concerts, and children's programs.
When you think of Woodstock, words like romantic, magical and historic comes to mind. Woodstock is a tiny village that has been called "the prettiest small town in America" and the "quintessential New England village" with a covered bridge in the middle of town, and magnificent homes surrounding the village green. In 2010, Yankee Magazine, listed several Vermont towns in their slideshow of "Top 25 Foliage Towns in New England," including the beautiful town of Woodstock, Vermont. Explore unique shops and galleries, artisan studios, country stores and fine restaurants while visiting.
The Woodstock-Quechee Region's natural wonders and historic sites exist from the Quechee Gorge to President Calvin Coolidge's homestead. Visit the new Vermont Institute of Natural Science (VINS) Raptor Center or hike in the Green Mountain National Forest and our state parks.
