We won’t gatekeep this secret any longer – August is the best time to visit Stowe, VT. With warm days, cool evenings, fewer crowds, and a wealth of enjoyable experiences, August is the “sweet spot” on the calendar.
While Stowe is renowned for its stunning fall foliage, its ski-season appeal, and its summer-destination status, these times of year bring big crowds. If you’re looking for a late-summer getaway and want to avoid tourist-heavy seasons, oft-overlooked August is really where it’s at.
Timberholm offers a variety of rooms and suites, so whether you’re traveling solo, with a loved one, or squeezing in one last family vacay before the kids return to school, we have the right space to meet your needs.
Mid-70s°F days and low-60s°F evenings make August the perfect time for a Vermont getaway. Explore all the daytime activities Stowe has to offer – biking, hiking, golfing, and more – without the sweltering heat of July or the frigid temps of November.
Return to Timberholm after your day’s adventures to sip a beverage on the deck and watch the sunset over the Worcester Mountain Range. When the stars come out, warm up in our hot tub or with s’mores around the fire. Then, return to your cozy room for a good night’s rest – we recommend opening the windows for the most restful sleep in the crisp mountain air!
