Living in Vermont makes it easy to escape modernism and step back in time, to a place of old charm and friendly people, a place where time stands still and highlights the treasures of a bygone era. This summer or fall, a trip to Weston will grant you a peek into an old-fashioned town, one that still teems with its rustic and rural surroundings. The simple and quaint vintage-like Weston is a perfect Vermont getaway. Let’s take a closer look at the architecture and rural nature of this fabulous town.
Vermont's famously scenic Route 100 passes right through Weston in southern Vermont. The small town of 600 residents has a welcoming spirit and lovely village.
With its bucolic environment, the little town of Weston is situated in a stunning part of Vermont's landscape, nestled between the Green Mountain National forest and Okemo Valley.
Looking for a sweet while out and about? You'll find Mildred's Dairy Bar on Main Street serving refreshing and delicious creemees and other yummy dairy products.
After your visit to Weston, you'll have plenty of other things to do and see in the area. With hiking and nature all around you, and Route 100, Weston is a perfectly located town to spring off from and visit other fun and interesting places in the area.
But before leaving, you must make a short stop at the fabulous and rich general store in Weston. This quintessential Vermont place is filled with everything you'll need, from snacks and sandwiches, to odds and ends, and everything in between.
