The Mad River Valley

An unscripted film about the community we call Vermont's Mad River Valley. We like to say 'they come for the mountains, but they stay for the valley.' In this video you will see local farmers, business people, tourists, barns, markets, craft beer, music festivals, skiing, kayaking, running, biking, swimming, golfing and more.

This is a wonderful 19-minute documentary of the Mad River Valley produced by Mount Mansfield Media for the Mad River Valley Chamber of Commerce. Look for footage of the Skinner Barn Theater Co. and owner Peter Boynton at 10:40 and 15:50 of the video timeline!

Come for the mountains...
                     stay for The Valley!

We are located in the town of Waitsfield which is one of the four towns that make up the Mad River Valley, best known for the Sugarbush and Mad River Glen ski areas. Vermont is known for its rolling green mountains, historic New England architecture, unobstructed views, (there are no billboards allowed on Vermont’s roads! Not a one!), and rural agricultural settings. Waitsfield offers the amenities of a major resort destination and the homey atmosphere of a small rural community. The perfect place for your destination wedding or get-away four-season vacation.
