Easter Weekend isn’t often a traveling holiday, but we think it should be! Head to Stowe, VT for an unforgettable Stowe Easter getaway this year and take part in a variety of fun and fulfilling activities for the whole family. Read on to see the top ways to celebrate Easter in Stowe.
Easter Sunrise Service
Wake up early in the morning and spend quality time with your family by attending the sunrise service. Sure, you will have to wake up before dawn, but the magic of the sunrise hitting the mountain peak, curling up under the brisk air with your family, and sitting together with a cup of hot coffee or hot chocolate is a great way to bond with one another and celebrate this holiday.
On Easter morning, you can join the other fellow early risers by going to the top of Mt. Mansfield via the non-stop gondola that runs from the town down below. Hop in the gondola with your family and soar high above the sky as you slowly rise above the pine trees, surrounding hills, and the billowing clouds.
On the last day of the winter operation for the mountain, you can also attend the Easter Sunrise Service by Stowe Community Church between 4:30 am and 5:40 am. One of the best ways to celebrate what you are thankful for is to attend the last day of the winter gondola service and wake up early to get the day started in the best way possible!
Easter Brunch at Solstice Restaurant
After waking up super early for the sunrise service, it might be time to go home for a nap. Once you are feeling rested and ready to tackle the day, Easter Brunch and an Easter egg hunt await! Head to Spruce Peak in Stowe for their Easter Brunch and egg hunt on Easter Sunday to have fun with your kids, taste some mouthwatering food, and imbibe a few mimosas or glasses of sparkling wine.
First, head to Spruce Peak Village Greens with your kids and their Easter baskets to try to gather as many eggs as possible. Trust us, your kids will absolutely love running around the park area, finding eggs, plopping them into their basket, and opening them later in the day for a special treat.
After some time of running around and working up an appetite, head to the Easter Brunch to fill your plate. We recommend tackling the standard items first, like scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, and sweet pancakes, and then moving on to the more upscale items, like the savory ham carving station and the choose-your-own Benedict buffet. Pair any one of these dishes with a Bloody Mary and mimosa for a complete brunch experience.
Check Out 10 Railroad Street
Do you want to go to a family-owned, no-frills, laid-back diner for your Easter brunch? We Don’t blame you. Sometimes, the hype around Easter can be a bit too much, and the fancy plates are just too fancy. Suppose you want something casual and relaxing for you and your kids to enjoy. In that case, 10 Railroad Street in Morrisville is just a short drive away from your lovely abode in Stowe, VT.
This laid-back restaurant offers traditional American food, tasty pints of beer, and an authentic vibe that is hard to come by. This old, 19th century train station has been converted into a wooden and dark-paneled American restaurant that includes tasty breakfast plates, hefty brunch dishes, towering lunch sandwiches, and much more.
Head here for brunch to curb any pub food cravings you might have. Suppose you come later in the day, like for a late lunch. In that case, we love the huge sandwiches, like the Nashville chicken sandwich with buttermilk-brined fried chicken, the Marinated portobello burger with smoked Gouda cheese, or the famous Reuben with house-made corned beef.
They also offer pub classics, like fish n’ chips and shepherd’s pie, which are perfect to have with a pint. Bring out your inner old English or Irish side for the Easter holiday with a visit here.
