Baron Georg von Trapp and his wife Maria settled with their family in Vermont in 1942.

A new Austrian-style lodge with 93 rooms was opened in 1983.



There are interesting things to see in every season!

The tour often ends with Sam von Trapp, General Manager and son of Johannes von Trapp, or another von Trapp family member answers questions about what it was like growing up in the family.




The views in autumn are spectacular!

There isn't always a cost! This picture was taken at a free Concert in the Meadow featuring USAF Rhythm in Blue Jazz Ensemble this August.

For example, take a hike to the chapel, which is one of the most special places on the property. It is a must visit in any season.

Stop in for a delightful lunch at the deli & bakery.

This is an impressive building with some of the tastiest brews in Vermont.



Trapp Family Lodge was just nominated for the 10Best Readers' Choice travel award contest! This year, they are a contender for Best Cross-Country Ski Resort.

You'll have earned it after the trek!
