This state park is home to the Island Center for Arts and Recreation, a community-based nonprofit that promotes cultural events in the region. Until recently, the Royal Lippizan Stallions used this as their summer home. It's a great place to watch the boats go by on Lake Champlain.
It’s Isle La Motte’s Shelburne Farms, but a lot more chill — a gallery, concert venue and teahouse. Presidents William McKinley and Teddy Roosevelt were both guests. You can always stop in and look at the art in the 19th-century horse-and-carriage barn, but on Sunday afternoons from 1 to 5, they serve tea and dessert to live acoustic music.
On Saturdays from May until October, sixty-three vendors sell everything from fresh fruits and vegetables to ethnic cuisine to artisan cheese. Local artists set up tables for the Art Market behind the Firehouse Gallery. Starts at 8:30 a.m. and ends at 1:30 p.m. If you want a local meat cheesburger for lunch, get there early.
