This is a scenic overlook that shows the entire valley, unspoiled by human development. They have a distillery, brewery/restaurant, observation deck, gift shop, and museum. This is also the place to go if you need crystal clear cell phone reception. It's about 15 min from my place and is easy to find because it's right on the highway. Can't miss it.

Jasper Decor is a super cute, quaint and unassuming store in downtown Wilmington next to the Wilmington Pub. The owner has a keen eye for finding vintage and antique home decor and mixing in some gorgeous jewelry and scarves. She is the source for the curios in my place.

This is the pristine lake across the street from my place. Swimming and fishing are allowed, so is boating and motor boating. There is a nice swim area that the locals use, which is directly in front of my next door neighbor's house (it's just a path that starts right after the metal guard rail ends). The water is clean, and unless it's a holiday you will probably have the entire lake to yourself.

A National Historic Landmark, Naulakha was built for Rudyard Kipling in 1892. Much of Kipling’s original furniture remains, which means that guests can sit at the very desk where the famed author wrote The Jungle Book, Captains Courageous, and portions of the Just So Stories.
Naulakha sits at the top of a tree-lined driveway, just off a quiet country road that is nevertheless just 10 minutes from the shops, restaurants, brew pubs, and arts venues of Brattleboro, Vermont.
