Manchester, Vermont
The Manchester Area is different things to
different folks! Depending upon where you are standing, and
at what time of the year, you might view the area quite differently.
More specifically, Manchester (sometimes referred to as Manchester
Village) and Manchester Center are as different as day and
night. One is known for its mansions, golf courses, art center,
and the like…the other for its renowned outlet stores.
Manchester (Village) has been a resort town longer than anyone
alive can remember. However, in its early days it was almost
exclusively for the rich and famous, still evidenced by Hildene,
the summer home of Robert Todd Lincoln, the son of the President.
This magnificent estate is now open to the public, offering
everything from tours of its formal gardens in summer to candlelight
tours of the house during the Christmas Season. The elegant
220 year-old Equinox Hotel still serves, as it did then, as
the centerpiece of this elegant and affluent village. A number
of small shops are within steps of the hotel and its marble
sidewalks, as is The Equinox Country Club. Everything in Manchester
Village is well-manicured and pleasing to the eye, including
several very impressive inns and dining establishments. The
Southern Vermont Arts Center, much more than a gallery, is
also a Manchester landmark and is more than worthy of a visit.
Last, but certainly not least, you should plan to make the
spectacular drive up Mount Equinox, the backdrop of both Manchester
and Manchester Center. However, before you take this toll
road (May thru October) make certain your vehicle is in good
shape or you may get to the base of the mountain faster than
you planned on. If you're a shopper, head north to Manchester
Center...you'll think you died and went to heaven! They're
all here...Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein, J. Crew, Brooks Brothers,
and their equals! You can pretty much find the outlet of your
choice here, together with some you wish you had known of
before coming. This is not to say that Manchester Center is
known only for its outlet stores. However, in recent years
it has become more and more identified with this. Manchester
Center also has a beautiful setting. In fact, if you are entering
from Route 11/30, coming from the Bromley or Stratton Mountain
areas, you'll enjoy the equivalent of an aerial view of this
handsome village nestled at the foot of Mount Equinox. There
are eating establishments of every variety...from a first-class
steakhouse to McFood. Likewise, there's an endless choice
of lodging establishments. And, in addition to the legendary
outlets, you'll find countless other shops of every variety,
including one of the finest bookstores you could hope to find
outside of an urban metropolis. Exit Manchester Village to
the east on Route 11/30 and you'll be in a different world
altogether...within minutes. You'll be in Vermont's famed
Green Mountains and at the doorstep of two of Vermont's well-known
ski areas - Stratton and Bromley Mountain Resorts. Go west
on Route 30 and you'll soon be in charming Dorset, the home
of one of Vermont's more popular summer theatres. Travel on
to Rupert and villages like Wells and you'll enjoy some truly
beautiful scenery and a look at some of Vermont's farmland.
If you leave Manchester Center on Route 7A, heading north,
you'll soon have a great view of the Southern range of the
Green Mountains on your right. It's a beautiful drive north
toward Danby and its marble quarries. Soon after leaving Manchester
you'll see the entrance to Emerald Lake State Park, a very
popular warm weather recreational site. To the south is Arlington
and Bennington. As you can see, Manchester has much to offer...come
and enjoy!
