1. Great Vermont Corn Maze
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 71 reviews
Largest Maze in New England. Opens August 1st. Open at 10 AM, 7 days a week, weather permitting. Recommend arriving no later than 1PM. BEST time for mazing is mid-August to mid-September when corn is at it's best. Closes mid-October, exact 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 for young children with small western style play village, 100' underground tunnels, silo climb, HIDE-N-SEEK FOREST and hay barn. 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.

This is a huge corn maze with bridges and different features. Even standing on the bridges throughout maze or other elevated features you can't solve the maze. Spent a few hours just walking through maze, working our way farther in. But we eventually got to where we were constantly getting back to the same locations and irritated. So we pulled out paper and started to draw our routes and routes options we didn't take. If you do get irritated or children you can use the easier route which gives clues on the way to go and special routes through out the maze. Also noted plenty of access to emergency exits if needed (bathroom breaks at porta potties). Great sense of accomplishment once done. They have different shaped hole punches through out maze so you can see at over head photo of where you were in which order through the maze and over head photo lets you see what the maze is shaped as. They have some other features to entertain children if they didn't take time to solve the hard maze.

Visitors are encouraged to bring their dogs to this 150-acre park and reserve in Vermont's scenic Northeast Kingdom, which offers hiking trails, dog sculptures and trout-filled ponds.
Reviewed By Boris L - Halifax, Canada
My wife and I stopped here on the advice of a friend while driving though Vermont and were not disappointed. We enjoyed the Stephen Huneck gallery and our dog enjoyed swimming, running and playing with other visiting dogs. The dog chapel was very moving, filled with notes left by visitors for departed pets. We left one of our own before leaving. Dog Mountain is a must-see for any dog-lover traveling in northern Vermont.
5. The Dog Chapel

Built by renowned artist and founder of Dog Mountain, Stephen Huneck, this unique chapel, welcoming both parishioners and their dogs, is styled in the manner of a 19th-century village church in Vermont.
Reviewed By Patricia H - Athol, Massachusetts
Not sure how I found out about the Dog Chapel, but decided we had to visit. As dog owners and lovers all our lives, we were so touched by the outpouring of love for dogs who have crossed the Rainbow Bridge. We have lost four absolutely wonderful companions that we added to the chapel. Every space with the exception of the pews and stained glass windows are covered with notes, photos, etc, of beloved dogs. Makes you cry, but we'll be going again in the near future with friends who have also been grieving for lost dogs. In addition to the chapel is the dog park where your dogs can play and run off leash with other dogs visiting. There are hiking paths, swimming holes, an agility course, and lots of room to run and play with new friends. The gift shop carries artwork of Stephen Huneck, the creator of the Dog Chapel, as well as many other gifty things, ie, Tshirts, mugs, cards, etc. All proceeds from the purchases go back into the support of this wonderful facility.
6. Fairbanks Museum and Planetarium

A museum that resembles a storybook castle offers a variety: vintage toys and weapons to fossils and antiques.
Reviewed By Janice D - Newark, Delaware, United States
Great planetarium show. You should go just for that. It does cost extra beyond the museum ticket. The museum has a lot of taxidermied animals. It takes about an hour to go through the museum. Areas for kids to learn in and a cool butterfly greenhouse outside. Highly recommend you go if you are near it.

Five of us went to East Burke to explore Kingdom Trails for a few days. We booked a 3 bedroom suite for the 5 of us. The rooms were large, the kitchen, lounge area was clean and seemed brand new. There are no real strikes against this hotel. It was empty the first night, the second and third it was packed due to HEMPFEST. The hot tub was large and warm, the restaurant had a wide beer selection, good food and decent service. The bike storage room was great. The only strike I would give is that the lighting in the bedrooms was poor. Each room had two side table lamps and that's it. No ceiling light and no light near the closet. I mentioned this to the front desk who was happy to receive the comment.
We will return. It's a new hotel with large rooms and convenient to East Burke.

A public library with an art gallery.

My wife and I enjoyed the art museum. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable. Ewa Seiler knows a detailed history of every painting in the place. We also learned a lot about the founder of Fairbanks Scales and were given a map for a walking tour of Saint Johnsbury.
A perfect spring day. Thanks!

What more could you ask for after a day of riding? Good, inexpensive beer (they don't charge a premium for the premium location). Burritos next door (not quite so inexpensive but delicious). Showers and massages available 20 feet away!
It's located in the parking area so you're always close. Hours are expansive. They even have heat lamps if it gets a little chilly (it usually does...)
