Since we mainly have palm trees and sand at home, I couldn’t wait to catch fall leaves at their peak foliage in Vermont. And it did not disappoint! The landscape was carpeted in amber tones and sun-fire hues that were like nothing I’ve seen before! In addition to the scenic views, the area had SO much to offer when it came to stays, experiences, and good eats. I’ve outlined all our favorites from this trip and included our daily itineraries to help you plan your trip to Vermont. As always all of my outfits are linked on my LikeToKnow.It and under each picture; however, a full Vermont look-book is up next on the blog!
Our Stay:
We stayed at this darling barn and silo AirBNB that was full or character and cozy vibes. A good amount of our time was spent exploring this beautiful home and it’s surrounding property (including a treehouse!). Would recommend this family-friendly stay to anyone and everyone headed to Stowe! Learn more about this barn-silo home here!
