May 2025 –
Sometimes the best family vacations aren’t packed with a million things to do — they’re about slowing down, breathing in the fresh mountain air, and making room for the little moments that matter. This May, Red Clover Inn invites your family to unplug, explore, and rediscover the joy of a laid-back spring getaway in the heart of Vermont.
Unplugged and Outdoors
Start your day with a simple country breakfast, then lace up your hiking boots or hop on your bikes for a day of outdoor discovery. The trails around Chittenden Reservoir are flat enough for little legs and offer plenty of chances to skip stones, spot frogs, and watch the clouds drift across the sky.
Picnic-Perfect Spots
Pack a picnic from our kitchen or stop by a local deli and head out to the River Road Picnic Area — just a short drive from the Inn. With picnic tables, wide-open fields, and the gentle sound of the river nearby, it’s an easy favorite for families looking to linger.
Farm Life Up Close
May means baby animals, blooming gardens, and fresh starts on Vermont’s family farms. Visit Newmont Farm for a casual stroll and a peek at farm life in action, or head to Baird Farm to learn about maple syrup and enjoy a sweet spring tasting.
Evening Traditions That Stick
When the sun starts to set, let the day wind down naturally. Watch your kids roast their first marshmallow over our crackling fire pit or play tag in the fading light while you sip a glass of wine on the porch. It’s the kind of evening that doesn’t need screens or schedules — just a sky full of stars.
Where Families Feel at Home
At Red Clover Inn, we believe the best vacations feel a little like coming home — only better. With cozy rooms, hearty local meals, and easy access to Vermont’s hidden gems, your May family retreat starts right here.
