Get away from it all in Jamaica, Vermont
With a population just barely topping 1,000, this tiny hamlet in the southeastern corner of Vermont is the epitome of small town New England charm and light years away from big city life. You'll feel as though you've stepped into a postcard when you start exploring the quaint houses and picturesque churches that are dotted around the town's tiny main street, which is home to family-run shops that will make you yearn for simpler times. Jamaica is an idyllic base for exploring the refreshing forests and nature of the Green Mountain State.

From hiking to shopping, life is stress-free in Jamaica
Be sure to pack some sturdy shoes so you can take advantage of the countless hiking and nature trails that wind through the surrounding countryside. A Jamaica vacation rental puts you in a wonderland of forest, mountains, and streams, plus enough fresh air that you'll be sure to sleep well at night. When you've had your fill of the scenery (if that's possible), get some creative inspiration or nab some local hand-blown glass at the unique shops and galleries on the main street. For snow bunnies, there's some prime skiing nearby.
Cozy winter nights by the fire, and lazy summer nights out
If you're a fan of winter, Jamaica's your place. Particularly from December through March (and maybe even longer), the surrounding countryside is covered in feet of fluffy white snow, making for some great winter activities, or just a spectacular view with a blanket and some hot chocolate. Summers are pleasant and warm, though often humid. Even in the warmest months of June to August, the mercury rarely rises into the 80s -- you might even want a light sweater at night. The blazing fall foliage peaks during the prime leaf peeping months of September and October.
Go chasing waterfalls in Jamaica's lush forests
Endless acres of vibrant mountain forests are just waiting to be explored at your Jamaica vacation rental. With Jamaica State Park and Green Mountain National Forest just minutes away, you'll get your fill of hiking trails, towering trees, and native wildlife, especially some pretty feathered friends. The area's crown jewel is Hamilton falls, just one of many secluded watering holes you'll find as you lose yourself in the wilderness. The peaks of Stratton Mountain Resort are a great place to take it all in and get that perfect Instagram shot.
