Review of Vermont State Parks

Staying at nearby at beautiful River s Edge cottag...

Staying at nearby at beautiful River s Edge cottages I hopped on my bike to take a ride around the area and came to Button Bay... I can t say how it is beyond the front gate because as I pedaled up I was greeted by a young woman who was apparently enjoying the power of her position as gate keeper. I explained I was on vacation nearby and came upon the park while on my bike ride. She told me that it would cost $4 to pass through the gate. Not anticipating the need for cash on my ride and not thinking a person on a bicycle would have to pay to ride within the park I asked if I could ride the short distance to the water to take a peek and was told that the view was beautiful but I would need to turn my bike around and keep on going. Seriously rude and nasty but said with a big smile. Big fish in a little pond... lol!

Post note: returned to the park with my $4 a couple of days later. Very nice and well kept. Big fish was right ... views are beautiful
