Newport pairs big-lake scenery with small-city convenience, unfolding along the shores of international Lake Memphremagog. Stroll the waterfront boardwalk, watch sailboats from the Gateway Center lawn, or step into galleries and cafes that anchor downtown’s arts scene, highlighted by the community-driven MAC Center for the Arts. Winter brings skating and Nordic tracks, while powder days at nearby Jay are an easy escape. Civic life is accessible and well organized through the City of Newport, with year-round programs run by Newport Parks & Recreation.
Families appreciate strong local schools within the North Country Supervisory Union, with Newport City Elementary and the region-serving North Country Union High School just up the road in Derby. Health care is anchored by North Country Hospital, offering comprehensive services close to home. Outdoor time is a way of life here: sandy shoreline and campsites at Prouty Beach & Campground, playgrounds and ballfields at Gardner Memorial Park, and miles of quiet roads for biking all set within the natural beauty of Orleans County. When you need a dose of statehouse history or a day in the capital’s cafes, Montpelier is within comfortable reach.
Whether you’re chasing lake sunrises, après-ski at Jay Peak Resort, or a walkable downtown with year-round events, Newport offers an easygoing, well-supported lifestyle. If you’re ready to make a move, Agent Pronto can connect buyers and sellers with a proven local real estate expert.
