Shelburne, situated along the La Platte River and Lake Champlain, is home to a variety of activities, attractions, and unique Shelburne lodging options. There are many friendly Shelburne bed and breakfasts and Shelburne inns that seek to maintain the old-fashioned charm, delightful architecture, and homey comforts that many visitors have come to love. Country-style Shelburne lodgings are enhanced by such charming town attractions as the beloved Vermont Teddy Bear Factory and the gorgeous Shelburne Museum, a beautiful building that houses impressive collections of art. There is also much fun to be had at Shelburne Farms, a real working family-run farm that has been deemed a National Historic Landmark. For horse lovers, it is a definite "must" to visit the National Museum of the Morgan Horse. Along the shores of Lake Champlain, you will find Shelburne Orchards, an especially delightful place to visit in the autumn. Within minutes of Shelburne lodging are a number of out-of-town sites of interest, such as the Ethan Allen Homestead in Burlington, the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum, the Rokeby Museum, and the 1812 Homestead Farm. If you are interested in camping or hiking, or simply want a nature area in which to picnic, then visit Mount Philo State Park a few miles away in Charlotte. From the elevation of Mount Philo, you will get a wonderful view of the scenic Lake Champlain Valley and the great Adirondacks. Delightful Shelburne bed and breakfasts and comfy Shelburne inns await you!
