Staying in Quechee

Quechee is a small village on US-4 in the town of Hartford, about 15 minutes from Woodstock and 10 minutes from the I-89 and I-91 junction at White River Junction. Vermont's deepest gorge is here, together with the Simon Pearce glassworks in an old woolen mill, and the mill, falls, covered bridge and green sit in one compact cluster you can cover on foot. The gorge and the nature centre lie further along US-4 on a road with fast traffic and no proper footpath, so you drive between the two. Woodstock has the prettier village and the walkable evening; Quechee has the gorge on the doorstep and better access to the two interstates.

Most of these hotels carry White River Junction addresses, with individual entries on Quechee Main Street, Quechee Hartland Road, Old Quechee Road, Murphys Road, Lyman Batcheller Road, Willard Road, Williams Lane, Baker Turn, Wood Road, Coolidge Drive and South Main Street, plus one in Woodstock and one in Hartford. Many are condominium-style retreats with full kitchens, fireplaces and laundry, which suits families and groups on a ski or golf break; the classic inns suit couples and short breaks, and Hotel Coolidge in White River Junction is the practical base for business travellers arriving by train.

Plan your stay

When to go

The site notes that the walk down to the river can be slick after rain and in shoulder season, when ice lingers in the shade — so plan the gorge for dry, settled weather and treat the return climb as a real climb. Spring through autumn suits the trail and the glassworks; winter turns the region over to skiing, which appears among the facilities at most of these hotels and in the nearby ski addresses.
