To start I really liked Vermont. The towns are quaint and like everyone else said the views are wonderful and people were nice (for the most part). But the reason I gave it a 3 is this. I found Vermont to have good superstructure with those little towns but there was something very phoney about it too. Little towns where things were very expensive like they could see the tourists coming. How many places can you have selling $10 trinkets, syrup and soap for Gods sake? Every town was like this. I love the mountains, hiking and streams...they were wonderful. But they can see the tourists coming. I spent more for a Hotel in buttslam Vermont than in many other awesome places in this country. Why is that? I can think of many other places that are beautiful and don't rake your money like that. Also, the winters are terrible, especially for people who don't care less about skiing. My buddy is leaving after 20 years because of the Damned winters as he said.
