Waterbury Center offers an inviting blend of outdoor adventure, small-town camaraderie, and distinct character that makes it a standout place to call home in Washington County. Residents appreciate its proximity to Stowe’s world-renowned ski slopes and the recreation-rich Waterbury area, while enjoying a sense of community that shines through at local markets, farm stands, and cafes. The serene setting near the 850-acre Waterbury Center State Park provides endless options for kayaking, fishing, swimming, and picnicking with Green Mountain views, with more family-friendly activity awaiting at the wide-open spaces of the Hunger Mountain Area and the rolling Stowe Recreation Path just minutes away.
Education plays a central role in daily life; the Thatcher Brook Primary School and Crossett Brook Middle School in the Harwood Unified Union School District offer strong academic support for children from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade. For local flavor, stop into the Cold Hollow Cider Mill, a Vermont institution renowned for its fresh-pressed cider and warm cider donuts, or take a guided tour at the Ben & Jerry’s Factory in neighboring Waterbury.
