The warmer temps as of late got me thinking about all the bikers who come up to Stowe. Biking in Vermont has become a popular activity in the Spring, Summer and Fall. Many of our guests have used our Vermont Bed and Breakfast as a base of operations for tours in and around Stowe. While some Vermont Inns participate in organized tours, which can be great, you can also set up your own tour. You can explore Smuggler’s Notch, Stowe, Waterbury and the Green Mountains all from our Stowe Bed and Breakfast. Ten Acres Lodge has a covered area for your bike to secure it while you relax. And Stowe has a wide variety of restaurants for foodies and we offer dinner at the lodge as well. We have several pricing packages that help stretch your travel dollar as well.
Biking isn’t the only thing to do. The Green Mountain Hiking Club maintains dozens of trails in the area and many of our guests take in hiking in Vermont while staying with us. The scenery is spectacular and the trails are at all levels.
If your thinking about getting away for some serious biking in Vermont, please consider Stowe and Ten Acres. I think you’ll be gald you did.
Wondering if our little snow town will have the right setting for your romantic meal, or the perfect place to bring your family for a special meal everyone will enjoy? We’ve got a recommendation for you:
For a very unique Vermont dining experience, why not try Solstice, the fine dining restaurant inside of Stowe Mountain Resort, just down the street from our Stowe Lodging.
A relatively new addition to the Resort, Solstice is becoming well-known for their attention to detail in the ambiance of the dining room as well in the preparation of the cuisine. The chef sets a priority to use local and fresh ingredients, which is always a plus. They have a extensive collection of wines, and a sommelier to help you select the right one for your meal & budget. 
Solstice has been enjoyed by guests with children (they have a kids menu that will tempt Mom & Dad!) as well as couples on their anniversary. The food ranges from the unique (Beef tartare) to the healthy (heaping green salads) to the comforting (chicken breast with risotto & burssel sprouts). Have a hard time making decisions? Solstice also offers “tasting menus” where you can have a small portion of many things on the menu to get a feel for their various choices. This exciting sampling might be just the thing to compliment the luxury of your stay in our Bed and Breakfast Vermont.
All around, Stowe is pleased to have a high-quality dining establishment that can hold it’s own against the standards set by restaurants in Boston and the other fine metropolises of New England. The best part is that Solstice is only 6 miles North of our Vermont Bed and Breakfast.
March brings the snowiest month of the year in Stowe Vermont, though many may find that hard to believe with grass making an appearance in the back yards of many. But those of us who run Stowe Inns know that ski season is still in full swing. For me well…..that means more shoveling and plowing. But for our guests at Ten Acres Lodge it means classic Spring Skiing! It really is a great time to come to Vermont as the temps are comfortable and the snow is soft.
March also means maple syrup as the sap is running. It can be interesting to visit a sugaring farm and witness the process first hand on the making of maple syrup. It takes 40 gallons of sap to make one gallon of syrup! Once you have real maple syrup on our french toast that we make at the lodge….you’ll never want to have that fake stuff again!
A bed and breakfast in Stowe is a great way to experience the magic of Vermont. We hope you find yourself our way either to ski or just relax…and think of Ten Acres Lodge if you do come up.
