Quechee Attractions
Quechee was a small woolen mill village which has been turned into a resort town. The Quechee Gorge has a bridge that offers excellent views of the area and the Ottauquechee River.
In 1981, Simon Pearce moved his operations to Quechee, Vermont, where he completed a restoration of an historic woolen mill and harnessed the hydro-power of the Ottauquechee River to fuel his glass furnace.
Visitors to The Mill can view the hydroelectric turbine on the Mill's lower level, observe glassblowers, watch a potter working on the wheel, browse the retail shop and enjoy a meal in the restaurant.
