The Town
The setting of our New England inn and resort, Woodstock, Vermont, is a quintessential Northeast village encapsulated by covered bridges, the Ottauquechee River, Quechee Gorge, the Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Park, and picturesque New England countryside. Its charming colonial character is enhanced by the local artists, craftsmen, farmers, and purveyors who harness the spirit of Woodstock’s village. A wonderful collection of country stores, boutiques, bookstores, and art galleries line the village stroll, enticing visitors to wander its charming streets.
Billings Farm & Museum
A pleasant half-mile stroll from the Woodstock Inn, Billings Farm & Museum is an ideal way to experience the spirit of rural Vermont. Meet prize-winning Jersey dairy cows, draft horses, Southdown sheep, and heritage chickens and sample Billings Farm’s own 100% raw-milk cheddar cheese. Explore the carefully-restored 1890 Farm House and learn how the farm operated a century ago. During the warmer months, wander the heirloom garden, apple orchard, and cornfields along the river, and unwind on the dairy bar terrace with a Vermont-made ice cream; a winter visit may feature horse-drawn sleigh rides through snowy farm fields. Stay and watch the daily afternoon milking at 3:30. The museum features interactive programs, award-winning historical exhibits, and seasonal events. Admission to the Billings Farm & Museum is included for Woodstock Inn & Resort guests.
Marsh - Billings - Rockefeller National Historical Park
The Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park was dedicated to the public by benefactors Laurance and Mary Rockefeller with a vision to preserve 550 acres of delicate woodlands surrounding the town of Woodstock. Accompanying the nature preserve are the historic homes and art collections of the Marsh, Billings, and Rockefeller families, whose environmental stewardship helped shape the ethic of American conservation, and some 20 miles of carriage roads and hikeable trails that meander the vistas of nearby Mount Tom. Admission to the national park is included for Woodstock Inn & Resort guests.
