The prices were reasonable, and you can't get closer to the reservoir without jumping in. The kayaks were clean and in good condition, not the fanciest, but more than adequate for a daylong paddle. Best of all was the reservoir itself, surrounded by mountains, massive and gorgeous. You owe it to yourself to kayak here, and if you do, you can't do better than Reservoir Dawgs.

Hope they aren't still accepting reservations and taking deposits from unsuspecting people! Please be aware and STAY AWAY from this shady business. I will see them in court!

The farm provides a wonderful opportunity for little ones to meet and interact with the animals, which adds a unique touch to the visit. It is a great place to break up a long drive and allow everyone a good stretch. The variety of fresh produce, baked goods, and mouthwatering meats--especially the delicious bacon--was impressive. I also loved browsing the selection of locally made crafts and treats, which made for perfect souvenirs to take home. What truly stood out was the kindness and welcoming spirit of the owners. Their genuine hospitality made us feel right at home. If you're passing through Wells on Route 30, a stop at Wellsmere Farm is a must. I can't recommend it enough!

If you are looking to hike and summit Mount Killington, Bucklin Trail is a wonderful option. Much…read moremore of a traditional hike (as opposed to climbing the ski trails on the resort), the path is well-marked and well-maintained. It is approximately 7.5 miles round trip to the summit and back. It is marked with blue blazes that are easy to follow. To find the trailhead, you must turn down Wheelerville Road off Route 4... keep in mind that this is an unpaved road. After approximately 4 miles, you will reach a sharp turn in the road. There is a turnoff to the left with a decent sized area for parking. The trail begins here and remains relatively flat for almost 2 miles. It follows Brewers Brook for some time, with a couple of bridge crosses over its rocky waters. After the initial 2 miles, the trail begins to climb more steeply until it joins the Appalachian and Long Trail (follow the white blazes for this section). Along this section is Cooper Lodge, a refuge for backpackers... built in 1939, it is the highest shelter on the Long Trail. Unfortunately it was covered in graffiti (I mean really... who brings spray paint 4,000 feet up a mountain?). To end the hike you scramble up the last and steepest part of the climb, emerging from the treeline to a panoramic view of the surrounding Green Mountains. It took about 3.5-4 hours of actual trekking to complete the hike. I am not a fast hiker by any means and took several breaks along the way (especially as it got steep!). Beware of the black flies that swarm in the spring/early summer. Overall, I was very pleased with this hike. Waterfalls, rivers, bridges, panoramic views. Doesn't get better than that!

It was worth the effort to find, because we de-stressed and relaxed in the near perfect silence. We also saw plenty of wildlife ranging from frogs and tadpoles to chipmunks and dragonflies.
