West Dover pairs mountain energy with small-town ease in the heart of Windham County. A few minutes from Wilmington, it’s best known for four-season fun at Mount Snow, where alpine runs, downhill mountain biking, scenic chairlift rides, and festivals keep the calendar full. The walkable Route 100 corridor offers cozy cafes, après spots, and gear outfitters, while miles of nearby trails and swimming holes make summer just as compelling as a powder day. Getting around is simple thanks to The MOOver, the free shuttle operated by Southeast Vermont Transit that links slopes, lodges, trailheads, and village stops.
Families appreciate the strong school community. Younger students attend Dover School within the Windham Central Supervisory Union, known for small class sizes and outdoor learning ties to the local landscape. Older students typically continue within the Deerfield Valley, with abundant arts, language, and athletics opportunities supported by area partners and community volunteers.
Town services are accessible and responsive through the Town of Dover, and local events—from farmers markets to holiday torchlight parades—create easy ways to plug in. Golfers gravitate to the Mount Snow Golf Club, hikers explore the Valley Trail network, and winter brings world-class snowmaking and terrain at Mount Snow. For car-free days, hop aboard The MOOver and let someone else do the driving.
