Ice skates, hot air balloons, and snowshoes—Vermont winter vacation fun at The Essex!

There’s nothing quite like a Vermont winter vacation in New England, and the snow-filled days and nights at The Essex are no exception.

Visit Northern Lights Rock and Ice for ice climbing on their 17,000 gallon frozen waterfall or for some snow tubing down their hills.

Borrow our complimentary snowshoes for a peaceful walk around our 18 acres of Vermont winter resort wonderland.

Take off in a hot air balloon ride and take in all the breathtaking snow-covered scenery of the Lake Champlain Valley.

Relax under the stars at an evening bonfire.

Lace up your skates for a triple Lutz or two on our skating pond.

…or just head back inside for that full-body massage, a plush, warm robe, and a cup of gourmet hot chocolate - the perfect cap on your Vermont winter vacation.
