There’s something magical about the holidays in a small New England village. In December, Shelburne Falls trades the big-box rush for twinkling lights, wreaths on storefronts and the simple pleasure of shopping where the owner knows your name.
Holiday highlights:
- Shop local: Bridge Street’s galleries and shops are full of one-of-a-kind gifts: art glass, pottery, jewelry, books and local treats
- Evening strolls: Walk the village after dark when the lights reflect on the river
- Seasonal events: The village often hosts holiday celebrations and late shopping nights, so check the local calendar before you visit
- Winter quiet: Between celebrations, enjoy cozy evenings and peaceful snowy mornings
The gift of a getaway: Looking for a present that isn’t more stuff? A Blooming Inn gift certificate gives someone you love a weekend in the hills, any season they choose. Contact us and we’ll make it easy.
