Winter brings Whimsy guests a whole new range of activities from snow-shoeing, skiing, snow-boarding, x-country skiing, snow-mobiling and more.

Other things to note
We are pet friendly for a single well behaved dog. Please note as there is new carpeting upstairs, your 4 legged family member is not allowed upstairs. The master bedroom is in fact downstairs so this should not present an issue.

Neighborhood highlights

Whimsy is located in the delightful village of North Troy which is the largest town closest to Jay Peak Resort in its eastern foothills. It is literally one mile from the Canadian border. The Village itself has a Currier and Ives feel to it as you are transported back in time to a simpler, less complicated era.

If you love the outdoors, you will love this area where you can take full advantage of rivers for swimming, fishing, paddling or just sun-bathing. Hiking trails abound and you are within 30 minutes to several golf courses. In winter, Jay Peak Resort is just up the road for alpine skiing.
