LINCOLN

Lincoln is one of the most beautiful mountain towns in Addison County. It sits up above the town of Bristol in the lap of the Green Mountains, and the mountain peaks that rise above the village include Mt Abe, Glen Ellen, and Roosevelt. The Long Trail runs across these mountaintops and provides a spectacular view of Lincoln's patchwork of farm fields, and densely wooded areas. The New Haven River flows from these mountains, where you'll also find a town library, town offices, town hall, and the local elementary school. Lincoln town center is quintessential Vermont, with its white-steepled church, fire department, and charming general store.  Many of the roads are still dirt and it feels like "real country," yet you are just 40 minutes to Burlington, 30 minutes to Middlebury, and a quick drive down to the town of Bristol, where you'll find many necessary amenities.
