Jackson House Inn

Celebrate the Fourth of July in Woodstock

It’s a tradition of summer – celebrating our nation’s birthday on the Fourth of July.  Woodstock, Vermont is the place to mark the special holiday this year, and we would like to welcome you to The Jackson House Inn with a special holiday offer.  Book two nights during holiday week (July 1 – 5)  and take $50 off the room rate total, stay for three nights and we’ll take $100 off!  Best of all, if you stay on the 4th, you have a perfect seat on our bed and breakfast’s front porch for the fabulous Woodstock community firework show in one of our Kennedy rockers or wicker chairs.  The Jackson House Inn is located directly across Route 4 from the site of the event!

Watch Woodstock’s Fourth of July from our Porch!

Enjoy an active beginning of the day by registering for the 36th Annual John Langhans Green Mile Road Race.  This 7.1 mile challenging run/walk through beautiful Woodstock, VT begins with registration on race day at 8:00 am on the Village Green for $35 (or in advance – online at Active.com for $30.00).  Walkers start: 8:30,  runners start: 9:00am.  All participants receive a free t-shirt and snacks.  Awards, live music and dancing  are sponsored by the Spectrum Teen Center.

Or, prefer a casual, stroll in the morning?  Begin the day at Billings Farm and Museum for an Old Vermont Fourth of July.  Their celebration takes visitors back in time to 1890 (the same year Mr. Wales Johnson built the original portion of our inn!) for a reading of the Declaration of Independence, a spelling bee, and historic debates to name a few events.  Visit Billings Farm from 10AM – 5PM.

The Town of Woodstock (in conjunction with Pentangle Arts Council and The Spectrum Teen Center) is sponsoring a fun-filled Fourth of July at Woodstock Union High School.  Enjoy games, picnic food (grilled hot dogs, burgers, sausages,…), live musical entertainment and, of course, the great fireworks after dark!  Walk across from the inn to the field and mingle with our community friends, then return to The Jackson House porch for a spectacular view of the show!

Happy Fourth of July from The Jackson House Inn!
