See recent posts by Lissa Poirot

Vermont’s Smugglers’ Notch has opened a new water attraction for summer guests. Bootleggers’ Basin is a reservoir with Zoom Flume inflatable water slides, volleyball, paddle board sessions and more. The new swimming area has depths of 0 to 12 feet.

The new addition becomes the fifth water attraction for the mountain resort. Rum Runners’ Hideaway is another six-acre reservoir with swimming in 7 to 12 feet. Notchville Park and Mountainside Water Playground are two water parks with lazy river, water slides and wave pool. A clap pool is also available.
