Taftsville rewards daily life with postcard-worthy moments: mist on the Ottauquechee River, historic farmsteads, and the ruby trusses of the Taftsville Covered Bridge, one of the nation’s oldest surviving covered spans. Minutes from the conveniences of Woodstock and the artisan energy of Quechee, this village balances small-scale living with easy access to dining, culture, and outdoor adventure across Windsor County. Residents hike forest lanes, cycle scenic back roads, and cast for trout before heading to community suppers or concerts on the green.
Weekends often lead to the only national park in the state, Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park, for carriage roads, ranger-led programs, and contemplative walks among old-growth hemlock. Families love raptor encounters and forest canopy trails at the VINS Nature Center, while nearby Quechee State Park delivers dramatic gorge views and riverside picnics. Public schools serve the area from Woodstock Elementary and Woodstock Union Middle/High School, noted for strong academics, the arts, and outdoor education that leverages the region’s trails and waterways. Housing spans restored capes and farmhouse classics to thoughtfully designed, energy-efficient builds, often with sweeping meadow or river vistas.
