Shelburne Museum

Often called the “Smithsonian of the North,” this 45-acre collection of historic buildings houses some 100,000 pieces of Americana, including an authentic , full-scale steamship . (From Aerial America) Read more

Explore impressionist paintings , folk art , and special exhibits spread among historic buildings & lush grounds . Tour the brick house decorated with English ceramics, historic wallpapers, & fine art .

Give yourself plenty of time at the Shelburne. This is a three-hour experience at a minimum. Would happily have spent all day here! The steamship and Impressionist art were highlights for us.

The grounds are expansive and beautiful. Better to come on a good weather day.

The life’s work of Electra Havemeyer Webb, 45 acres & 37 buildings create a living history museum . Don't’ miss the 1906 steamship , Ticonderoga . – Green Guide Editor

A must see for anyone visiting the area!

You need at least two days to see the whole museum .

There is a wonderful Ansel Adams exhibit-don't miss it. The Ticonderoga paddle boat is a site to see and the circus parade is phenomenal.

Great place! I always enjoy my visits there!

Make sure you feed your kids prior to coming here the food and drinks are expensive especially if your local and work for a living!

Walking tours of the Ticonderoga are daily 11:30 am and 2:30 pm through mid- august

Thank you for a fabulous 2012 season. Museum reopens on Sunday, May 12, 2013 and this year we don't close!!

Kids loved the boat!!

Bad move at deciding to have the VT Balloon Festival here. Shelburne Museum is great but the festival was too big for the space. Couldn't even get in. No parking . Very disappointing.

Take the jitney around the grounds to get an overview of what's on view where

Strollers everywhere! Can't these kids walk? There is an empty well behind me!

Check out the Edward Burtynsky photos. They are amazing.
