Woodford rises along the spine of the Green Mountains, the highest-elevation town in Bennington County. Set on the scenic Route 9 corridor between Bennington and Wilmington, it offers a peaceful, four-season lifestyle with quick access to everyday essentials, arts, and dining in nearby hubs.
Outdoors, it’s hard to top the glassy waters of Adams Reservoir at Woodford State Park, perfect for paddling, fishing, and quiet lakeside picnics. Trail lovers can roam deep into the Green Mountain National Forest or set their sights on the storied Long Trail and the Appalachian Trail, both crossing nearby ridgelines for memorable day hikes and backpacking. Winter brings impeccably groomed cross-country skiing at Prospect Mountain Nordic Ski Center and miles of snowmobile routes maintained by VAST, turning the forest into a snowy playground.
Families appreciate that students are served by the Southwest Vermont Supervisory Union, with Mount Anthony Union schools in nearby Bennington and a robust lineup of academics, arts, and athletics. For culture beyond the trails, the Bennington Museum showcases regional art and history, while farmers markets and events in Manchester add more weekend options.
Whether you’re seeking a secluded cabin by the water or a year-round base for mountain adventures, Woodford delivers small-town calm with big-outdoor energy. When it’s time to move, Agent Pronto can connect buyers and sellers with a trusted local real estate pro to make the process easier.
