    Vermont Welcome Center

    I love that Vermont's welcome centers allow overnight parking. This is a fabulous service and as an…read moreavid RV'er, I appreciate it. As long as we're not camping, it's cool! The only minus here is that the welcome center is only open from 7a to 7p and when it's closed, the restrooms are also closed. That's not a huge problem for me as I have facilities on board, but passenger vehicles do not. US-4 is a pretty quiet road. I arrived here at 9:00 pm and departed at 6:30 am. I took a spot was not disturbed. I woke up when the sun woke me up. No noise at all. [Review 18473 overall - 72 in Vermont - 1995 of 2022.]

    Vermont is a state unlike any other. Then again, this can probably be said about all the states…read more Each has something unique to offer. The state is up north and its claim to fame is maple syrup. That and the tons and tons of snow it gets during the winter. Or at the very least that's why we went. We wanted to experience it firsthand. We stopped at the welcome center and learned quite a bit. There are pamphlets everywhere. Charts, too, depicting who is from the state, who died from the military, and even movies made in the state. Did you know that Beetlejuice was filmed there? Other than that, I cannot say much. There are bathrooms, but I did not use them. There is coffee, but I did not have any. Oh, and there are soda machines for snacks. Come to think about it, there were attendants, but they were having a cup of coffee. Then again, it was Christmas Eve and it was in the teens. I really didn't notice them until the end. This is just a tranquil place that you can go at your own pace. Feels attendants are there just in case.

    Excellent rest stop in Sharon, VT. Highway signs let us know it's 74 miles to the next restroom,…read moreand as it was lunch time we pulled in for a picnic and walk about. The road in is newly paved and takes you around the back of the building. Big rig parking is by the highway with a pedestrian walkway up to the building. The parking lot is a fair size with no EV charging station (yet) and two handicap spaces. A small pavillion directly across from parking covers three picnic tables. Another 3 are nestled under the trees to the left. Several Adirondack style seats across the lawn overlook the road and view beyond. The grounds are beautifully landscaped. The building is small but contains a lot of tourist information on the walls, brochures to take and a volunteer to help. Hot coffee is available, two drink vending machines and one snack vending machine as well as water fountains. Clean mens/ladies rooms and two family bathrooms are located behind a display wall to the left as you enter the building. An information desk is straight ahead. This facility reclaims it's waste water and the process is open to the public in their Living Machine greenhouse area. It's very tropical with a bounty of lush, warm weather plants. Thankfully, it didn't smell like waste water in there. :) Also on site is a large Veterans Memorial, originally opened in 1982. There are several informational displays around the property regarding VT's military history. The memorial is a lovely, quiet space for reflection. A dog walking area is located on the opposite side of the parking lot with waste bags available for your convenience. Furry family members are not allowed inside the building. A volunteer was monitoring the parking area, keeping it tidy. This is a beautiful rest stop with space for kids to run, picnic areas, seats with a view, a memorial and some waste water science. If all you need is a quick pit stop they got you covered. If you have time to roam, they've got you covered there too.

    Continuing my way into Vermont with a quick stop here. They have been extraordinarily clean and…read morehelpful in New England and it's awesome to see. I wish more states understood the importance of rest areas as they do up here. Clean bathrooms. Plenty of parking. Information about local attractions and hotels. Helpful staff. A wifi signal that worked pretty well.

    The nicest welcome center I've ever stepped into. The center opened in 1999 and is opens daily from…read more7am to 7pm; there were employees there to assist with any questions. The structure is beautiful and looked like a barn; it was nicely decorated and showcased Vermont as a whole. The restrooms were large and clean; they had changing tables which was a plus. They had a large patio area with many seats. There was even a playground. Parking was plentiful. We went in September around 6:30 pm and outside near the playground, there were a ton of mosquitos. We had to run out of there lol. Overall, it's a great spot to stop and stretch your legs if you're in the area.

    This welcome center was very informative as well as a piece of art in its own architecture, so…read moreclassic for this state. Everyone working there was helpful, especially the woman at the main counter. She pulled out some maps and booklets and highlighted some covered bridges we were looking for and suggested a deli near one of them. Sometimes, digital maps and internet access to these things are nice for planning, as we had, but a good old fashioned paper map of the area highlighted by a local, can still be helpful in decision making. The rest rooms were very nice and there was some art in the display room. But the traditional post and beam construction was the main attraction. The parking was ample. Do stop here, whether you need help or not, it was well worth seeing. It truly is a Welcome Center to a very beautiful state.
