It\u2019s Autumn \u2013 and time to take a timeshare vacation to enjoy nature\u2019s brilliant artist\u2019s palate of color. What better place for everything that autumn has to offer than New England? And where in New England? Vermont! And where in Vermont? Stowe has it all.<\/p>\n

Stowe is home, in particular, to the Trapp Family Lodge. The \u201cSound of Music\u201d award-winning Broadway play and movie made them famous. Now the 3rd generation of the singing Von Trapp Family is carrying on the tradition of European-style hospitality. Their unique luxury mountain resort is of Austrian-inspired architecture, and offers activities for ever y season.<\/p>\n

Autumn is a favorite time at the Trapp Family Lodge. Rent a timeshare and explore the resort\u2019s 2700 acres of mountain views and wooded paths.<\/p>\n

And be sure to say Happy Birthday to Maria Franziska Von Trapp \u2013 this second-oldest daughter of \u201cThe Captain,\u201d and step-daughter of Maria, just celebrated her 96th birthday on September 28. Maria, portrayed as \u201cLouisa\u201d in the play and film, was a member of the original Von Trapp Family Singers, and is the last surviving member of that original group.<\/p>\n

The Trapp Family Lodge is run today by Johannes Von Trapp and his son, Sam. Johannes is the Captain\u2019s and Maria\u2019s youngest child and was born in Philadelphia.<\/p>\n

Johannes has established the Trapp Family Lodge as one of the country\u2019s premier cross-country ski resorts, with 28 miles of groomed trails 62 miles of un-groomed trails throughout the resort property.<\/p>\n

In 2010, the Lodge began to brew beer, producing approximately 60,000 US gallons (230,000 l; 50,000 imp gal) annually. The brewery produces traditional German and Austrian style lagers. The beers are sold on-site, as well as at restaurants and bars throughout Vermont.<\/p>\n

As Johann is proud to say,\u201d This really is a place where the grass is greener, the snow is more pristine and the autumn is more brilliant. Where the sights of nature and the sound of music create a vivid symphony for the senses.\u201d<\/p>\n
