SquareTrade © AP6.0 squaretradetravelseal**** FOR THOSE WHO ARE LOOKING FOR A PICTURE POSTCARD 'B & B'-THEY ABOUND IN VERMONT- THIS IS NOT ONE OF THOSE. THIS 'IS' A LAKESIDE VACATION RETREAT (CAMP ) THAT IS BEING OPENED TO 'RENTERS' FOR THE FIRST TIME. ONE OF THE MAIN GOALS IS TO ENABLE OTHERS ENJOY THE CAMP & AREA, AS I HAVE FOR MANY YEARS. THIS IS A FAMILY ORIENTED AREA,SO CHILDREN ARE PLENTIFUL,AT LEAST TIL LABOR DAY.THE EXACT NUMBER IN YOUR PARTY IS FLEXIBLE,BUT THE RATE WILL REMAIN THE SAME. A SELFSERVICE BREAKFAST IS AVAILABLE,I'LL SHOW YOU THE WAY TO THE KITCHEN. IF YOU 'FEEL THE NEED' TO COOK, THE KITCHEN IS OPEN. THERE IS A NONSMOKING REQUEST EXCEPT ON THE FRONT PORCH, AND WE CANNOT ACCOMODATE PETS.*** COME AND COOL OFF DURING THE SUMMER HEAT IN THE GREEN MOUNTAINS OF VERMONT. HIAWATHA IS A LAKESIDE 'CAMP' THAT IS LOCATED ON ONE ACRE SHADED BY TWO HUNDRED FOOT PINE TREES. IT IS LOCATED ON LAKE BOMOSEEN ,VERMONT,ABOUT 40 MILES NORTHEAST OF GLENS FALLS,N.Y. WE ARE 5 HOURS FROM NEW YORK & 4 HOURS FROM BOSTION. VERMONT IS CONSIDERED ONE OF THE MOST PICTURESQUE STATES IN THE UNION-SO SAYS CNN. WE ARE WITHIN ONE HOUR'S DRIVE OF MANY HISTORIC REVOLUTIONARY WAR SITES, ABOUT 30 MILES FROM THE KILLINGTON SKI AREA. HIAWATHA IS ABOUT 2 HOURS SOUTH OF THE TRAPP FAMILY LODGE AT STOWE.

ONE OF MY FAVORITE DAY TRIPS IS A DRIVE TO OGUNQUIT ,MAINE - 4 HOURS -.TO ENJOY THE CLIFFS, THE SEA & THE MANY LIGHTHOUSES,FOLLOWED BY A SUCCULENT LOBSTER DINNER. AT JONATHAN'S,A POPULAR RESTAURANT, YOU CAN CONSULT WITH THE CHEF,AND HAVE YOUR OWN SPECIAL ENTREE CREATED. I LIKE THE LOBSTER THERMIDOR,WHICH HE MADE FOR ME. THERE ARE SEVERAL REPETOIRE THEATRES IN THE AREA.,WITH A CONSTANTLY CHANGING VARIETY OF SHOWS.WE ARE ONLY ABOUT A 75 MINUTE DRIVE TO THE RACETRACK AT SARATOGA,WHICH IS ' QUITE THE SCENE' IN AUGUST,WHEN THE RACING SEASON IS IN FULL SWING. ENROUTE,YOU WILL PASS A LARGE OUTLET MALL,WHERE YOU CAN SPEND SOME OF YOUR 'WINNINGS'.

WESTON, WHERE THERE IS A BENEDICTINE PRIORY,THEATRE & THE VERMONT COUNTRY STORE,IS ALSO ABOUT THE SAME DISTANCE. THE 'MANAGEMENT' ASSUMES NO RESPONSIBILITY IF YOU 'BLOW THE BUDGET' WHILE SHOPPING. ENJOY OUR 'OLD FASHIONED' PORCH , ANTIQUE POOL TABLE-BROUGHT UP BY EUGENE O'NEILL THE IRISH PLAYWRITE, FROM THE BOWERY IN NEW YORK CITY.
