Jamaica

Jamaica Highlights

Yes, there really is a Jamaica, VT! Its name was taken from the Natick word for beaver -- not the Caribbean Island! Filled with country charm, you will find artisans offering the most exquisite hand blown glass, rustic furniture, pottery, etc. Jamaica State Park, filled with scenic hiking trails, camping and swimming will delight anyone loving the outdoors. Hamilton Falls, one of Vermont’s tallest waterfalls, is a sheer delight. Salmon Hole is a great spot to check out if you’re visiting the park and Pike Falls is another. Swimming in the large pool at the bottom of the falls is awesome. (For your safety, make certain to check with the locals regarding the best place at the falls). D&Ks General Store is an icon, as are most all other general stores in VT. You will want to stop in for a wonderful sandwich, a cold drink or anything you might need. You will be welcomed warmly here.
