[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It was a 9 hour drive- but we spent Christmas in Vermont last year. Pure magic. Snow, sledding, sleigh rides, hot cocoa, cookies, snuggles, etc. It was perfect.[/quote]

Where did you stay?[/quote]

I also want to know! [/quote]

We found an Air BNB in Rutland that was on a horse farm. I think you can probably find more cute/quaint (or luxury) places, but we thought it was a good location for the price point we needed. Our hosts shared locations for the best sledding hills, so we spent several evenings just letting the kids sled their hearts out. And walking around the farm in so much snow was a novelty for all of us. We were close to a resort that offered the sleigh rides and we went on several drives looking at lights and through the snow covered mountains. We watched a ton of Christmas movies- including White Christmas. I froze cookie dough before we left so it was easy to “make” cookies there. In some ways- it was really low key. Just so different from what we have here in DC.[/quote]

Note that Vermont is not guaranteed to have snow at Christmas, especially in the central and southern parts. Cold rain is definitely an option! [/quote]
