Dog Mountain is a nonprofit set on 150 acres on a private mountain top spot in St. Johnsbury, Vermont. The grounds are open from dawn til dusk to people and their dogs. Artist Stephen Huneck and his wife, Gwen, bought the property in 1995. They turned the barn into studio space. After Stephen’s unique visionary experience, the world famous Dog Chapel was built. The unspoiled haven is covered with hiking trails and dog ponds. Wildflowers abound in the summer and snow-shoeing is a favorite activity in the winter. Year after year, the Dog Chapel and the Stephen Huneck Gallery get more and more visitors from all over the world. Leashes are optional on Dog Mountain. Dogs are not just welcome here, they are cherished! Dogs are free to run, play, swim and, best of all, meet other dogs! It's great to hear from travelling visitors and local residents alike how much Dog Mountain means to them and their dogs.

What a find! We were staying in Averill at Quimby Country and they suggested this spot, what a great place! Two tacos and an ice cream sundae for $10! Delicious is an understatement, fast and friendly service and I just wish I lived closer as I would be a regular customer!

We did a tour with Steve and he was fabulous. He engaged my kids at their levels (not an easy task when they range in age from 5-11). They were so excited to learn about the syrup-making process, the survival of the sugar maple, the balance of nature and the history. My daughter came away asking to walk in the woods and listen for the "song" of the sap dripping into the buckets. It was truly a magical experience for them. The syrup tasting at the end was so educational for the kids. They came away appreciating the difference in the taste of syrup at different times in the season and an understanding of the "why" behind the different tastes. I would highly recommend a visit.
7. Fairbanks Museum and Planetarium
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 166 reviews
An inspired, eclectic collection that started as a "cabinet of curiosities" during the Victorian era. Displays include taxidermy, shells, tools, mummies, and artifacts from around the world. Don't miss John Hampson's "Bug Art" -- mosaics made entirely of beetles and moths -- and the seasonal native butterfly house (in the summer). Home to Vermont's only public planetarium (temporarily closed due to COVID19) and the Eye on the Sky weather center.

As always the Fairbanks Museum has something for all ages....fantastic collections in “Smithsoneum” level displays. The architecture of the building inside and out make it worth the trip! Oh and the planetarium is well worth a visit, especially with children, pretty awesome! I have been going here for over 50 years and it never gets old!
