I have no expectations going to a movie theater, in fact I never expect much, hoping I dont get candy stuck to the bottom of my shoe. However we were blown away by our first visit to the most absolutley wonderful theater EVER! We live locally but have been to the movies only once up in Lebanon which was gross, the theater was dirty and the staff was a hot mess. Anyway, coming from NY, I had no expectations except to see the movie. This theater was a gem, a perfect gem of everything you could hope for. Visually once you step inside its like stepping into another era of a time gone by. There is movie memorabilia everywhere which is fun, exciting and unexpected. The staff is the nicest group of people we have encountered ever, their customer service was so friendly, engaging and appreciated. The theater was in top form, spotless, I could not believe how clean it was, and I have to mention the bathroom, actually. It was cleaner than bathrooms I have been to at peoples homes,seriously. The theater has three different screens, ours was a quaint one, but with the speakers you would have thought you were in a huge arena, it was great. Even the promos before the movie had a personal touch. I can't stress enough, this is a theater is like no other. There is attention to detail everywhere you look. You can tell by the owner and or manager, they care about their customers to have the very best cinematic experience ever and we sure did! Thank you, can't wait to go back and check out another movie and see the rest of the movie memorabilia..

We had a blast playing the “Area 51” Escape Room! A very impressive arrangement of clues, codes and riddles to solve, and a couple fun surprises that we totally weren’t expecting!! Would absolutely recommend for a fun family outing! This was our second visit to Escape Room 60 Williston (our first time we tried “Outbreak”), and we’ll definitely be back again!

Very friendly staff, great sandwiches, the meatloaf was outstanding, ice cream portions are exceptionally large, just a great addition to the area. You know its good, when you meet all the locals eating there or stopping in to buy beer. If you are traveling Route 30 between Poultney and Manchester, make this your rest stop, clean rest room, wide choice of food, sandwiches, ice cream, pastries, something for everyone in your family.

As an escape room veteran here, I was unsure what to expect given the location and the small building that it's in. The rooms were really great! I loved every minute of each of the two rooms that they had. Given that this was just a quick visit to the area for fun, I definitely wanted to find an escape room or two to add to my list. Botanist (#76) and Ski Chalet (#77) were great finds; both challenging and very well created. New puzzles for me with even newer ways of thinking. I highly recommend these rooms to any and all enthusiasts that are out there and in the area. I look forward to returning whenever they decide to make their new room along with taking their suggestions and trying another room in the area. Thanks for the great times!

We just left the Mind Lock Escape Room and I can not believe what a great experience we had. We have done numerous escape rooms in CT and NYC and this is one of the best. The room is fun, challenging, and thought out. The ownership is PHENOMENAL. They are so easy to reach, so willing to work you you, and I highly recommend ANYONE visiting mount snow or the area to visit this place.

9. Great Vermont Corn Maze
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 83 reviews
Largest Maze in New England. In 2020 advance reservations required due to pandemic. All reservations made on website. See website for updates and changes due to pandemic. Opens August 1st. 7 days a week, weather permitting. BEST time for mazing is mid-August to mid-September when corn is at it's best. Closing day varies due to how well the corn holds up. Two mazes. Big maze is a Black Diamond Maze and can take 2+ hours to hike. Scenic maze is smaller and is about a 40 min walk. Enjoyed most by adult couples and parents who enjoy adventures with their young children. 90% of teens do not enjoy mazing. Also, World's first Barnyard Golf, friendly dwarf goats and Lowline angus cows. PRETENDIN play area is closed in 2020 due to pandemic. Recommend following our map from website since not all GPS are accurate in our area. Popular October Haunted event- DEAD NORTH, sells out every year. Tickets for DEAD NORTH must be purchased online and go on sale in August.

It was my second walk-in maze in my life. The first was made from wooden walls. This one was more fun. It's huge and it's not an easy task. We heard it takes around 2h to solve it and that was approximately our time. At some point, I was frustrated that I can't solve it but I didn't give up. There are emergency exits and you can do a smaller maze if you don't feel like walking for 2h. But big maze is more fun, gives you enormous satisfaction when you solve it, and gives you some workout as you keep walking all the time. I also admire the people who design it and the fact that each year it's a different maze.
