Vermont

Beaches

Lake Champlain, aside the capital city of Burlington, is a magnificent, clear, crisp northern water body in all seasons. The many state parks around the lake have beaches, swimming, camping, and other services for a memorable family vacation. Many other mountain lakes and swimming holes offer sumptuous beaches for tourists to Vermont. Many waterfront lodgings are perfectly divine for a romantic getaway.
