Everybody has a little Vermonter in them. Independent. Capable. Authentic. When you visit our working cider mill, you and your family or friends will find your inner Vermonter. Your self-guided tour of our working cider mill offers an engaging rural experience that is unrushed and free of charge. Come learn how apples, bees, maple trees, and Vermont all get along well together. No wonder so many people come and see us again and again.
Check the mountain views instead of your messages. Exhale. Relax. And take away the good feeling of being more connected to the apples, the bees, the maple trees, and the people of our beloved Green Mountain state.
Vermont aromatherapy? Watching homemade cider donuts being made on our old school donut machine is a treat for the senses.
Watching fresh raw cider being pressed the authentic (and rarely seen) way on our vintage rack-and-cloth press, from our Viewing Room, invokes a sense of wonder. The feeling is heightened by a FREE taste of the "good stuff" - espcecially for those who have never tasted real Vermont McIntosh cider.
Even our location brings a smile: We’re conveniently located right on Rt. 100 between Ben & Jerry’s and the village of Stowe. We always do our best to personally greet large groups and even try to ensure easy parking for your coach driver. There’s plenty to see and do, and your group’s “agritainment” experience here is free. So is our glorious view of the Worcester Mountain range. People also love shopping here, and we’re ready to ship any purchases your group might make. We require that large groups book ahead of time. Just give us a call at 802-244-8771 or email us at info@coldhollow.com.
Planning a private rehearsal dinner, birthday party, or appreciation party? We don't take reservations during normal business hours, but we happily host and cater many kinds of large private evening parties in our restaurant and hard cider tasting room. Even dance parties: We have a built-in dance floor made from reclaimed fence wood from the 1800s…we like to party too! That’s why we have two portable bars, seating for 75 or more, and an outdoor covered deck for 36 depending on the season. We’ll even work with you to create and cater a custom event menu from our homemade favorites (and beyond) to help make your special occasion even more special.
