Located in Northfield, Vermont, at almost exactly the geographic center of the state, The Woods is close to many local attractions, dining, sightseeing and recreational activities. Known for the state's largest Labor Day Celebration, Northfield was once the headquarters of the Central Vermont Railway. There are four covered bridges in Northfield Falls, along a scenic drive, and Norwich Univeristy, the country's oldest private military college, is home to Kreitzberg Arena, a modern intercollegiate facility that has served as the host site for the NCAA Division III men's ice hockey champions in 1999, 2003, and 2004. Hockey is big in Northfield, and not only can you catch the 2000/2003 National Champion Cadets playing, but the local leagues play at the arena as well, and all are open to the public.

Montpelier, the state capitol, is just 15 miles up the road, and offers many choices for shopping and dining, from coffee shops and bakeries to ethnic and gourmet restaurants. The Green Mountain National Forest, just 20 miles to the west is home to the Appalachian and Long Trails, and several downhill ski areas, such as Sugarbush's Lincoln Peak and Mount Ellen, and Mad River Glen. Brookfield to our south, offers sightseers, nature lovers and sportsmen many options, such as the Floating Bridge, Allis State Park and Baker's Pond, with dining choices as well. Drive 10 minutes into Barre to our east, and you can explore and learn about the Granite Quarries, or catch the latest production at the Opera House.
