Why wait for a special milestone or special occasion? Plan your escape and enjoy time away together now.
Need a few Vermont vacation ideas for your getaway? Then, get ready to ignite the flames of desire with these swoon-worthy activities.
Stroll Through Scenic Streets
Nothing induces those warm, welcoming getaway vibes better than a stroll through the historic downtown streets of Brattleboro. Think old brick buildings dating back to the 18th and 19th centuries when the town laid its foundation — literally.
Brattleboro was charted in 1753 and settled in the 1760s, so, yeah. There’s definitely history here, but our quaint town isn’t some stuffy place plucked in the middle of Nowhereville. Far from it! Just stroll the streets and see for yourself.
Not only will you gain a glimpse of our history and appreciate the gorgeous architecture, but you’ll also have a chance to visit the many boutique shops, museums, galleries, theaters, and more — and have plenty of opportunities to engage with the friendly locals.
Modern Mayberry compared to metropolitan places? Perhaps, but that’s what makes Brattleboro so unique.
Enjoy a Live Event at the Latchis Theater
Speaking of theaters, we might be a little biased, but we love the Latchis Theatre; it’s one of the town’s happening places for great movies and even some fantastic live events like comedy shows.
The Latchis Theatre is one of the most unique theatres you’ll likely visit. Just check out our decor! Greco Roman? Absolutely! Bold and beautiful colors? You bet! Fantastic movies and live events with comfortable seating? Of course! Besides, there’s no better way to enjoy a great show.
Dinner and a movie? Sign us up!
Rejuvenate at a Local Spa
While we certainly appreciate those who can sit through hours of show times and binge on all their favorite movies, a romantic Vermont getaway is about romance after all, and perhaps a bit of “getaway,” too.
That said, indulging in a great spa treatment is always a favorite way to spend a morning or afternoon. Imagine warm massage oils and candles, while an expert knuckles and kneads your tensions away. It’s a great way to ease those tired, sore, overworked muscles into blissful relaxation.
A spa is perfect for any couple who wants to spend more time together and less time in the office buried in spreadsheets, emails, and those annoying and unproductive meetings where there’s always more gossip than action.
Explore Charming Boutiques
Think the malls in the big cities are great? Then, you’ll love the many things to do here, including the charming Brattleboro stores, eclectic shops, and inviting atmosphere. And we invite you to explore them all during your visit.
You never know what you might find at our Brattleboro boutiques — a gift for yourself or someone else, a new accessory, artwork, or a unique kitchen tool. Or maybe an engagement ring that feels perfect for your getaway. Okay, perhaps that last one was more of a suggestive “hint drop,” but we are talking about romance here, and there are plenty of places for an unforgettable proposal. Just sayin’.
Embrace An Outdoor Adventure Together
One of our favorite ways to enjoy romance and time with someone special is the Vermont way, which requires getting outdoors and embracing nature. There’s so much to do in Brattleboro, even during winter.
No, you don’t have to scale Mount Everest or have the perfect alpine ski record to enjoy winter in Vermont. Even if you’ve never skied before, we hope you’ll try it, and many locals would be happy to offer tips and guidance to get you started.
Not into skiing? No problem. There are plenty of other things to do, too, such as:
- Winter hikes
- Snowshoeing
- Snowmobile tours
- Ice skating
- Snowboarding
- Ice fishing
- Visit covered bridges
And if all else fails, feel free to find a hill, fling yourselves into the snow, and make snow angels together!
Indulge in Vermont Cuisine
Romantic foodies rejoice! Brattleboro is also home to spectacular farm-to-table cuisine that’ll have your taste buds penning love letters long after your visit ends. And sharing a romantic meal also feels warm and cozy, which makes it ideal for romance.
So, indulge. Share a wood-fired pizza. Or make like “Lady and the Tramp” and share a fine Italian meal at Blue Moose Bistro. Better yet? Take a cooking class together and embrace your inner chef!
