Outdoor Family Fun

Explore the fresh air of the Vermont outdoors with our numerous activities perfect for families! We went overboard on biking with so much to offer. We have Mountain Biking for the whole family with complimentary strider bikes for the littlest members and a full rental fleet for all ages. Or, slow down and borrow a Cruiser Bike from the Resort and admire the town to Billings Farm & Museum and explore local gravel roads by way of two wheels. Hiking on Mt. Tom and through Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historic Park is sure to lead to beautiful views, or take advantage of the park's great educational programs. Our Golf pros have designed a short course on 6 or 9 holes from our 18-hole complete course for an easy and relaxing family round! Speaking of relaxing, try the therapeutic sport of Fly-Fishing. Our Orvis Endorsed Guides offer families the opportunity to learn together; practice casting in our meadow then head to the brook and see who can catch the biggest fish! At the Athletic Club, families can partake in tennis rounds or lessons, or make exercise fun on the Outdoor Fitness Loop!

Just for Kids

We have a wide range of programs and services that are catered specifically for kids and teens! Daily activities include a variety of fun at the Mountain, Billings Farm & Museum, the Athletic Club and around the Resort. For the teens that need a little pampering, our world-class Spa is just the ticket. We offer various treatments starting at age 12 and up.

More Family Experiences

Kelly Way Gardens is a great place to find something for everyone. Interactive Tours and Tastings are all perfect ways to gather together and experience something uniquely Woodstock. Also offered are our special Red Barn Dinners with exceptional cuisine that teens will love to eat and photograph because it is a truly artful culinary experience. Try a Family Tennis Lesson where everyone can learn new skills together with a little bit of friendly competition. Everyone wins when you head to the pool for a swim; relax in the sun, or make a splash! At night, allow our guide to take you on a family appropriate Ghost Tour that leads through the Village of Woodstock giving you a glimpse into the history of the town. Finish the night with S'mores by our outdoor fire pit on the South Lawn! Anytime of day is a good time to hang out in our awesome Retro Game Room, kids and parents alike will have a blast playing pinball, pool and so much more! And when you need to admire the arts, Artistree is the best place around!
