"A summer destination, open May through October, this preserved 19th-century Vanderbilt mansion offers panoramic views of Lake Champlain. One of Vermont’s original farm-to-table fine dining restaurants, the historic inn’s menus are created based on the properties’ garden harvest. Expect to see the farm’s acclaimed aged cheddar, plus local lamb and pork. If you have extra time, visit the farm itself, meet the cows, feed the calves, and see how the delicious cheese you just ate is made." - Heather Platt
