Known for a mainly forested terrain that includes a wonderful mountainous landscape, Vermont is a haven for avid skiers and diehard hikers. Aside from the sporting adventures, this tiny state in the northeastern United States is also a culinary delight offering deliciously sweet and fresh maple syrup, flavorful Vermont cheddar cheese, and the very popular and tantalizing Ben and Jerry’s ice cream. Vermont’s accommodations are just as appealing with unique lodgings such as fanciful yurts sprinkled throughout the enticing farmlands and woods of this premier locale. To uncover what awaits you here, check out our list of the top 10 yurts in Vermont, the USA.
