Although we may be a little biased, we think Vermont one of the most beautiful places in the entire world! So, in an effort to help more people experience this amazing time of year, here is a list of some of our favorite places to stay during the foliage season, from small-town inns to grand resorts. Enjoy this year's foliage season in Vermont!

2. Basin Harbor Club - Vergennes, VT - 800.622.4000 - Website - Facebook

Basin Harbor Lake Champlain Fall View
You haven’t truly experienced fall foliage in Vermont until you’ve seen the reflection of the leaves from your waterfront cottage on Lake Champlain. Luckily, Basin Harbor has the solution to that very specific (and beautiful) situation. With 77 cottages (waterfront and other amazing locations) and over 40 guestrooms - families have been coming to Basin Harbor for generations. And with 700 gorgeous acres and dozens of activities it’s very easy to see why. Daily fall foliage cruises, hayrides, ropes courses, gourmet fireside s’more bar, and daily cider and Maple Shortbread cookies, just to name a few. Our personal favorite however, Basin Harbor Club - Rocktoberfest

is Rocktoberfest on October 18, 2014 - an annual end of the season celebration of Bacon, Beer and Bands. Booths with Otter Creek, Magic Hat, and more - combined with multiple bands and bacon inspired treats (bacon-wrapped, gouda-filled, tater tots/ French toast and bacon cupcakes). So, knock off some checkmarks on your fall foliage checklist and swing by Basin Harbor. C’mon, we know the bacon alone had you sold.

5. Inn at Weston - Weston, VT - 802.824.6789 - Website - Facebook

Inn at Weston
The Inn at Weston is a great choice for the romantic rendezvous, even if you're just passing thru for dinner on your leaf-peeping adventures along Route 100. There are photos of Vermont, and other subjects, taken by Bob Aldrich, who, with his wife Linda, own the Inn. There are prints, and paintings, and sculptures from galleries in Weston. You can take a stroll in the gardens or wander out to the Gazebo. If you get a chance, ask Bob for a tour of the greenhouse Inn at Weston

full of orchids. Play the baby grand piano if you are so inclined (though someone may already be playing for you on weekends and "concert" nights). There's a cozy library with a fireplace. Of course, then there's the food - the Inn at Weston puts an emphasis on "dining", not just eating. If you'll be in the area before September 10th, don't forget to make dinner reservations for your meal before going to the Weston Playhouse!
