Nearby Spots

Four Corners Swimming Hole11 mi awaySwimming Holes
Bugbee Brook at VT-101 Four Corners—dirt lot across from Jay cluster; USGS Missisquoi is basin trend, not pool depth.View Guide
Jay Branch Pools12 mi awaySwimming Holes
Jay Branch Pools are a lower-key Northeast Kingdom brook stop built around the clear Jay Branch corridor, with cold running water, rocky shelves, and a much less structured feel than the better-known northern Vermont swim holes. It is best approached as a scout-first local river page: easy to cool off in the right conditions, but too lightly formalized to treat like a managed destination.View Guide
Journey's End Swimming Hole16 mi awaySwimming Holes
Journey's End Swimming Hole is a Johnson brook-side stop with protected public access to half a mile of shaded Foote Brook. The pull-off and walk are short, but this one is best approached as a scout-first splash-and-swim stream with slippery rock and falling hazards around the cascades.View Guide
Beard Recreation Park17 mi awaySwimming Holes
Beard Recreation Park is a Johnson swimming hole with an enormous Gihon River pool, a gradual entry, and park-style access right beside the Power House Covered Bridge. It is one of the easiest family-friendly river stops in northern Vermont, though the ledge, current shifts, and warm-day crowds still call for normal caution.View Guide
