Shelburne Farms in Shelburne, Vermont is a 1500-acre estate originally owned and built by the Vanderbilt-Webb family in the 1920‘s. The grounds were designed by Frederick Law Olmstead (who also "did" Central Park) and contain large barns and outbuildings in the "chateau" style, a working dairy farm, and lots of livestock. The farm has been a public trust for many years and is open to the public year round. The famous Shelburne Inn, the former family residence, sits on a hill with a sweeping view of Lake Champlain and New York‘s Adirondack Mountains beyond. Meach Cove Farms adjacent to Shelburne is a similar estate with dirt roads, farm fields and trails along the big lake. Stabling is available at Meach Cove. If this sounds like the perfect place to ride or drive a carriage in style, it is!    Various Weblinks -  Shelburne Farms Shelburne Map Link Meach Cove Farms Meach Cove Map Link  September 8-14 (Fri-Thur)
