Why You'll Love It

Skiing, hiking, swimming, hot air ballooning. At The Essex, there’s no shortage of ways to work up an appetite. Good thing Vermont’s top chefs and sommeliers are hard at work cooking up some of the Northeast’s premier dining experiences.

The Essex offers the total package, and then some. Part beautiful retreat among Vermont’s enchanting woodlands, lakes, and charming small towns, part culinary destination; the AAA Four-Diamond rating doesn’t hurt, either.

Explore the bursting reds and yellows of autumn, carve through fresh powder in the winter, learn something new in a cooking class—however you spend your days is made all the sweeter with the luxury waiting for you at The Essex.
