Nearby Spots

Brewster River Gorge3.5 mi awaySwimming Holes
Brewster River Gorge is a Vermont swim-access page in the Lamoille County with a canyon-style gorge-pool page with established parking on Canyon Road and stronger destination feel than a generic swim stop. It works best as an honest scout-first river, quarry, pond, or gorge stop rather than an overhyped secret-spot page.View Guide
Fairfax Falls5.3 mi awayWaterfalls
Fairfax Falls is one of the more useful remaining northern Vermont waterfall pages because it is easy to name, easy to place, and gives Franklin County another legitimate water-feature stop. It is not a marquee swimming destination, but it has enough waterfall identity to matter.View Guide
Sterling Gorge Falls5.9 mi awayWaterfalls
Gorge cascades near Stowe—trailhead parking, short rocky approach, moderate-risk water context.View Guide
Waterville Swimming Hole6.1 mi awaySwimming Holes
Waterville Swimming Hole is a Vermont swim-access page in the Lamoille County with a covered-bridge swim page with easy village access and a cleaner named identity than a vague roadside river stop. It works best as an honest scout-first river, quarry, pond, or gorge stop rather than an overhyped secret-spot page.View Guide
Journey's End Swimming Hole9.8 mi awaySwimming Holes
Journey's End Swimming Hole is a Johnson brook-side stop with protected public access to half a mile of shaded Foote Brook. The pull-off and walk are short, but this one is best approached as a scout-first splash-and-swim stream with slippery rock and falling hazards around the cascades.View Guide
Beard Recreation Park11 mi awaySwimming Holes
Beard Recreation Park is a Johnson swimming hole with an enormous Gihon River pool, a gradual entry, and park-style access right beside the Power House Covered Bridge. It is one of the easiest family-friendly river stops in northern Vermont, though the ledge, current shifts, and warm-day crowds still call for normal caution.View Guide
