Vermont as a word always reminds me of pancakes and open fires and small streets with lots of cool stores. My experience of Vermont was exactly that. It has that real feeling of taking a long weekend in winter and rugging up in a country b&b.
I enjoyed Vermont and would recommend it as a nice quick get away. Make sure you bring a car to bring home some of those cool purchases.
I would rate it as 6.7 out of ten.
