I have been here multiple times throughout my life and each time the lifeguards have been very rude but I will say they take their jobs VERY seriously so no punk ass kids will be getting away with anything. The water is a very comfortable temperature however the water that falls on you in the lazy river is freezing. My main issue is the most recent time I came both me and my little cousin got stuck in the orange slide. We are both around 100lbs and as far as I know there was no weight requirement for the orange slide. There are also no openings in the slide like there are for the chute Incase you do get stuck. My cousin had gotten stuck about three times she went down it and had to push her way down the rest of the way. I got stuck the last time I went on it and it just so happened to be during the dark part and I was terrified and also had to push my way down the rest. The main reason is the water pressure on that slide is extremely low. When I got stuck I could feel the water slowly slowing down.

This is a very kid friendly place so obviously this place is full of kids gold wild. From what I could see there were slides, a climbing wall, a surfing or wakeboard simulator, lazy river, basketball, indoor hot tub and probably more. There is a bar inside and I believe you can also order food. There were lockers onsite and every kid we saw was having a wonderful time. This is an additional fee unless you have it added into your ski package which we did. We only came for the outdoor hot tub since their on site lodging didn't have any. It was pretty large and a unique shape, looked kind of like a clover. It gave the feeling of having multiple hot tubs within which was nice for small groups. It was hot and working well, a huge plus because often times there are problems with hot tubs during ski season. While we visited the kids that were in the outdoor tub were well behaved. It would be nice to have an adults only one as well to reduce crowding. When it's 10 degrees F or below, with windchill, the outdoor hot tub is closed.

Photos cannot do justice to the magnificent view of the mountains and light blue color of the water. Parking is limited in the small lot (perhaps 15 spaces available). The hiking trail itself was peaceful with the sound of birds, a few babbling brooks, and tree-shaded canopy that made a pleasant afternoon hike (about 1 hour for a round-trip loop walk). If your time is limited for a full hike in the area, I would strongly recommend this South Shore Loop trail for a satisfying walk!

What?!? No rave reviews for Kingdom Experiences yet?? I am thrilled to be the first!…read more This past Memorial Day weekend was our second time using Kingdom Experiences for our guides Kingdom Trails. We went back to them because our first experience was so great, and we'll be back with them again later this season! Our guide Ian was outstanding. He talked to us about the type of riding we were looking to do, and perfectly matched our skills and time frame to our ride. He checked in frequently during the ride to make sure the pace and trails were a fit for us. I would recommend Kingdom Experiences highly. Both email and phone conversations with Caitlin were easy and pleasant. Get out and RIDE!

I love the VT- Canada border and when I heard of this bike path, I made a special trip north to…read morecheck it out. 11.2 miles, round trip., the path starts in downtown Newport at the waterfront - State building. Trail markers point the way north to Beebe. The path starts in town, through the waterfront park, past the Prouty Beach and to the North County Hospital, where it leads onto an old gravel train rail bed. The trail is for beginners. Its all flat and look a little over 1 hour to complete the round trip. Hybrid bikes will work fine. Some locals call this trail the Beebe Spur 'n spin. Beautiful scenery that travels along Lake Memphremagog, and the backyards of the locals that have lake access. In Beebe, the path turns off the lake, and travels through some local farms for a few more miles, until it ends at a local road at the US- Canada Border. A sign will warn you to check in with customs if you wish to continue to ride. We did not have our passports so we turned around. Next time we may venture further.

Here is a description of the 30-mile ride I took this week - PASSPORT REQUIRED: Park at North County Hospital on Prouty Rd. (Newport). Trail starts 200 feet east. Pick up the gravel trail heading north by Lake Mephremagog. Good conditions for Hybrid and trail bike tires. At the end of the trail, take a right onto the paved road (North Derby Rd.) Approx. 2 miles to the end, then left. Pass through Canadian customs. Take a quick, few-hundred feet detour, east from the Customs house for a photo of Canusa St. dividing the US/Canada. Then back to the customs station and a right following Rt. 247 north for about 3/4 mile, past a large "Rediker" stone and a couple of banks, until you see the Tomifobia Nature Trail heading off to the right. The first mile of this 19-km trail isn't too scenic but it gets better very quickly. I went about 5 miles down the trail, then turned around and came back to the marked road barrier at "Ch. de Stanstead" (Stanstead Rd.?). There's a pond to your right at this crossing. Left /southeast on Ch. de Stanstead for about 2 miles to its end, then left (east) on Rue Maple. (This Stanstead/Maple roads part is seriously uphill for a total of about 2.5 miles). At the end of Rue Maple, you're in downtown Stanstead. Take a right (south) onto Rt. 143/Rue Dufferin heading back towards the US border. Just before the border, make a left on Boulevard Notre Dame, then a quick right on Baxter. A couple of blocks take you to the Haskell Library and Opera house, straddling the border. Park the bike on the Canadian side and walk around to the front door of the library which is on the US side. Make sure to take a tour for 5 bucks to see the opera house and the stripes on the floors that mark the border running through the building. From the library, go back north on Rue Church, 1/4 mile to Blvd. Notre Dame (Rt. 247) and take a left (west). Cross Rt. 143 (large stone fountain will be on your left). After a quick down-hill (1/4 mile), bear to the right on Rue Passenger, following black on white signs for "Piste Cyclable de Stanstead" bike trail . It's a little hard to find, so best to look at a Google Map before leaving the library to get familiar. Basically it's up a short hill on Rue Passenger than downhill left. You'll see the trail to the right at a power substation. It's less than 5 minutes from Library to this trail by bike. Follow this bike trail about 2 miles until it crosses Rt. 247, about a 1/4 mile from the border station you where you entered Canada. Go left (south) on Rt. 247, through US customs, then a quick right at the post office to follow your way back on N. Derby Rd. to the Newport Trail and the start of the ride. The Tomifobia and Newport trails are both loaded with beautiful sites. The final trail (Piste Cyclable Stanstead) is more functional than beautiful, but was in excellent condition (hard-packed dirt) and kept me off the main road (Rt. 247) just to the south of the trail. Enjoy!

The upper parking area has a huge rock with a geology display. The lower parking area has the remains of a house and a display on the early history of the area. A boggy trail connects the parking area. Also, if you are looking for a short jogging trail, Coles Road is relatively flat with open views of the surrounding hills and has wildflowers in the summer. Overall, it's an easy drive up Hinton Hill Road for folks staying on Lake Willoughby.

The day was hot, the walking in the somewhat tall grass from sculpture to sculpture became a little tedious & we know that we did not enjoy it as much as we expected because of the heat, the rough, dry grass & it being the morning before we all had flights to catch. The sculptures, for us, felt kind of repetitive & being that they are defined & described subjectively, we had difficulty relating. Others may fully "get it" & enjoy more than we did. There is a pond with two nearby chairs (nearly every seating area we saw had spots for 2 people, while we were a 3-some), a water fountain at the entrance, a very nice gentleman who greets you in the welcome barn & an outhouse with the sweetest & nicest smelling flowers. Very thoughtful.
