I would recommend sunscreen and bug spray. I felt excited. I would recommend this place.-Parker 3rd grade Hosmer Point is a summer camp. It is located in Craftsbury, Vermont. They have good parking. They also have a cool waterfront. It is for ages 9-15. It is made up of 52 acres. They have a theater. They also have a garden, tennis court, basketball, gaga ball, soccer field and pizza. I did not like the lunch choices and there were not many lunch options either. I recommend bringing sunscreen, bug spray, a change of clothes and bathing suit. When I went, I felt happy, excited, energized and silly. -Henry, 3rd grade.

    From the owner: Hosmer Point's mission is to build confidence and community. With only 80 campers, and a…read morecamper/counselor ratio of 3:1, our emphasis on community builds mutual respect. Children direct their own schedules, fostering self confidence as they choose from activities such as: sculling, sailing, farming, furniture building, and mountain biking. Other highlights are delicious farm-to-table food, a focus on environmental stewardship, and an electronics-free campus. Tuition is on a sliding scale, with families paying $250-$1300 per week. We also offer a day camp for ages 5-8, and a wilderness adventure camp for teens. As an outdoor education and events facility, we provide programs that get participants outside, active, and engaged year-round.

    Cool little climbing gym as part of a great complex. We stopped in to try it out and had a great…read moretime. They have a nook that you can climb up to and sit in! I thought that was super cool, and my kids loved it. The gym has high walls as well as a small bouldering area. The mats were a bit harder than what I was used to but nothing to worry about. The service was fantastic, and we were shown how to fall and given all the rules before we started. I can appreciate a gym that is safety oriented. By the time we left it was getting very busy. But great little gym in this area! Loved it! I would love to drop back by if I am in the area! Thank you!

    I stopped in to climb while in the area for a bit. I try to climb a couple days a week where I…read morelive, and I'd say I'm a high beginner/low intermediate climber. As mentioned both on the website and in another review, it is a little confusing to find the gym but just keep walking to the back of the Evergreen community center and you'll find it. Something I was excited about for this gym was that it has relatively tall walls compared to what I am used to climbing on, and I was really looking forward to practicing some longer routes BUT there were only 2 auto-belays, which was a bit of a disappointment for me. If you know how to belay and have a buddy, there are a bunch of really awesome looking routes but if you are a solo climber that doesn't want to pay a staff belay, you're kind of SOL. The bouldering area is pretty good but I found myself really limited in what was offered to a not-super-great climber like myself. I also didn't understand the bouldering route system - one of the staff explained it to me and I THOUGHT I understood it, but it turns out I really didn't! Overall, it seems like this gym is geared towards more skilled climbers with not as many options for people like me. I had a good enough time, but it didn't feel like there was a lot of me there. I can imagine that this is an awesome place to go for more skilled climbers!

    2025 Favorite Find Reservation is strongly recommended…read more Finally checked off TT after over a year and it was definitely worth it! The Tillerman is located about 5 minutes from downtown Bristol. The restaurant is inside an inn that is popular for their outdoor weddings. +++. Ambiance is idillic Vermont farm inn. Beautiful grounds and surprisingly large restaurant. The restaurant feels intimate as it is divided into many rooms. They have a wood burning oven for their pizzas. We sat in an intimate nook with a view of their front garden. +++. Food is new American and pizze. Interesting, creative and insanely delicious cuisine. +++ beef tartare - first tartare I've consumed more than a bite! +. Shrimp skewer- perfect temp but a little fishy for me. Others liked it though ++. Green salad - loved the presentation and tasty. Though flavorful, some bread crumbs were gravelly. Will skip bread crumbs next time. +++. Funghi pizza - fragrant blue oyster mushrooms on thin sourdough (they use a mix of several flours) crust. Though the bread crumbs are reminiscent of bacon bits, will skip it next time. Even so, the best mushroom pizza eva! ++. Orange sunrise mocktail was sweet and refreshing ++. Price is high but oh, so worth it! Very good value for the quality +++. Service is attentive and informative. Ian, our waiter was great! ++. Parking is a private lot TT is my new favorite resto in VT replacing HOTW. They are mindful and don't use seed oils and support local producers. TT is truly a farm to table resto that delivers interesting dishes beyond their delicious pizze. MY RATINGS - - - Inhumane -- Disgusted - Don't bother =. Missed the Mark +. Good ++ Better +++ EDIBLE... WHERE have you bee my LiFe!

    I attended a wedding there this month (July). There was no air conditioner. It was unbearably hot…read more There were no fans in reception area that served appetizers and drinks. I became so overwhelmed by the heat, I had to go to my car and turned on the air conditioner for 10 minutes before going back in for the sit down dinner in another section of the venue. There were fans in the dining area but it was still quite hot. The bride became overwhelmed by the heat and had to leave the party for over an hour. She sat most of that part in the bathroom with her feet in cold water because she was so sick from heat exhaustion. The food was very delicious. In fact I asked for 2 pieces of pate, and the owner (who was serving) said no. There was plenty of appetizers left over before we went over for dinner. Dinner was served buffet style. The owner was slicing the steak. He ask if I wanted 1 or 2 pieces. I said 2. At about 7:30 , I went back with another guest. We asked for more steak. He once again asked us if we wanted 1 or 2 slices. I ask for 3 and he did not like that. He gave my 3rd slice from a discarded end piece that was already cut off and put to the side. My friend received 2 slices, one was also a discarded piece set off to the side. It was a wedding. I did not want to make a scene. This was clearly poor customer service. From the owner, no less. There was plenty of food left. Plenty of steak left. The wedding was scheduled to end at 10:30pm. All the leftovers was taken away soon after we got our second serving of steak. There was no announcement that the food would be taken away, should anyone wanted extra servings. The leftovers was Not packed and given to guests or the wedding family. There was No reason to guard the food from the guests. It was already paid for. The wedding was not scheduled to end until 10:30. The only thing that was free flowing was the drinks. I noticed that the bartenders marked down each that was served. After inquiring about why, it turns out each of the drinks were being charged to family hosting this event. The bride was gorgeous. Everyone made the best of this situation. It just should have been handled better. I think no one should have a wedding here in June, July, and August. Also, it should be established with the owners the the food is for the guests. Not saved for leftovers for others. Outrageous.
