• Taste craft beer from any of the over 50 breweries in Vermont, making it home to the most craft beer producers in the country, per capita. Basin Harbor has its own beer: Red Chair Ale, available on tap at The Red Mill Restaurant.

• Eat at the more casual tavern, The Red Mill Restaurant. The building is actually a retired sawmill, with more than 100 years of Basin Harbor memorabilia lining the walls.

• Enjoy a delicious buffet lunch at the Ranger Room, or take advantage of the Vermont summer and dine al fresco on the lake at the resort’s themed North Dock Dinners, which can include lobster night, harbor fair, and a Vermont picnic.
