Stowe’s Top Five Things To Do During Your (Winter) Honeymoon
Updated on September 4th, 2018
More than a romantic getaway, your Vermont honeymoon is the start of your new life together! Stowe’s charming, natural beauty is the perfect setting to create your first memories as a couple! Whether relaxing by the fire, sharing a farm-to-table meal, or hitting the slopes, Stowe has so much to offer for Winter Honeymoons.
Stowe Top 5 Activities for Winter Vermont Honeymoons
- Hot air balloon ride with champagne at Above Reality Ballooning. Jeff is a wonderful and very responsible Captain. He’s also a Justice of the Peace and does weddings in the balloon! Balloons go during winter and summer.
- Make a wish while standing next to Bingham Falls. Winter transforms the series of five different falls into ice sculptures created by thick layers of ice that disguise the rocks that shape the falls. Everything becomes white. Thick Ice shapes form; mist is always rising. Lovely, albeit slippery. Watch where you walk! Bring your camera.
- Dog sledding at Edens. You get to know each dog, actually harness them, and with tails wagging and excited barks you’ll sense how anxious they are to get started! Two of you with blankets in a warm sled with your guide/musher to ferry you through the spectacular snow country of northern Vermont!
- Take a sleigh ride over the hills and through the woods. Just a few minutes from Stone Hill is a comfortable horse-drawn sleigh with thick blankets and an experienced driver. While only a 30 minute voyage, you will feel transported to a different time and certainly to a significantly different place in comparison with the eastern cities from which you likely hail. Giddy up!
- Share our Crème Brulee French toast made especially for you in the shape of a heart. Crème Brulee French toast is the most requested of the sweet breakfast items that we serve. Using a porcelain, heart-shaped dish, we create this delight the night before; let cool in the refrigerator; heat it when you arrive for breakfast, and serve with warmed Vermont Maple syrup!
Why’s it called Honeymoon?
“Honeymoon”– where does the expression come from? It appears that nobody is absolutely sure, however the Merriam-Webster dictionary reports the etymology is from “the idea that the first month of marriage is the sweetest” (1546). Of course it is a very special time when your focus is simply having fun together, and your days are filled with tenderness and pleasure for each other. Truly, a celebration of life.

“The Best Inn We Stayed in During our Honeymoon”
We had a month-long honeymoon during which we spent time at many B&Bs and Inns. This is definitely the best one. The great jacuzzi bath and double sided fireplace make the room so romantic. The place is just magical, go and check by yourselves!

“Honeymoon – Can’t say enough good things”
We stayed at Stone Hill Inn last week for our Honeymoon and it was amazing!! Kristie and Todd were so accommodating and such nice down to earth people! The breakfast every morning was so delicious and our room was very comfortable and spacious. The whole place is so beautiful! I can’t wait to go back!
