Craig Altschul Many visitors to our Green Mountain State believe fall is the best time to visit. The colors are changing, hitting peak beauty sometime in the first half of October. Hiking can be breathtaking. Shopping is more fun than ever. Never pass up a chance for apple cider. We hope you are planning a visit. Come see us. If you haven't already signed-up, you can Subscribe to our free monthly Vermont.com e-letter to learn about special deals, values, and ideas for your Vermont vacation. In fact, last month's winner got two nights at The Inn at Quail Run with breakfast, a winter sleigh ride, a gift basket, and even a hand made quilt. This month's e-letter offers the chance to win a "Ski & Stay Getaway" from the Fairbanks Inn, including lodging and ski tickets to Burke Mountain. Don't forget to check our Fall Foliage Page for current foliage conditions around the state. We welcome you to come for a "colorful" visit.
