Bald Mountain Retreat is one half hour off of Interstate 91.
From the north: From Interstate 91 take Exit 26, "Orleans/Route 58." Follow Route 58 east through Orleans to Route 5A. Take 5A south to the town of Westmore. (Or you can find your way down from Newport along Route 5A.) (Directions from Westmore and a more detailed map are below.)
From the south: Five miles north of St. Johnsbury on Interstate 91, following the signs to Lake Willoughby, take Exit 23 Lyndonville (under the name "East Lyndon" on the map below.) Follow Route 5 north, then 5A north to Lake Willoughby and the tiny town of Westmore. (Directions from Westmore and a more detailed map are below.)
From Boston: Follow Interstate 93 through New Hampshire to St. Johnsbury and Interstate 91 and then follow directions above ("From the south".)
We are between Lake Willoughby/Westmore and the town of East Charleston.
From Westmore (Rt 5A): Between the white church and the white town hall take Hinton Hill Road up and over the mountain. At the fork at the top stay left on Hinton Hill and stop and turn around and look at the view behind you, please. After a couple of ups and downs and miles, just where the road levels out Mad Brook Rd appears on your right. Take it. (If you get to the Hudson Road, you've missed Mad Brook Rd. and gone 1.5 miles too far.) We are one half mile past the gate at the end of Mad Brook Rd. The gate is the beginning of our "driveway," a "closed" town road through our neighbor's property. Just ignore those signs our neighbors put up about authorized vehicles only. We have access. They don't mean you. You are authorized.
As a courtesy to our immediate neighbors along Mad Brook Road please drive slowly up and down the mountain. They're not used to traffic. There may be horses in the road just up ahead of you, or a baby carriage. So please use caution, particularly around the bend. It's easy to get going way too fast for the neighborhood especially coming down the mountain. Go slowly; there's a lot to see. Thank you.
