Both Waterwheel and Country Treasures were on main roads. I had no idea they existed but saw their signs as we drove by so they'd be easy for you to find. Waterwheel had a nice bench outside where my husband sat happily while I shopped and shopped. Country Treasures, as I recall, looks small but once inside it was much larger than I expected. Spent some $ there too.

My DD says to be sure and stop at Ticklenaked Pond! The farmhouse up the road has t-shirts you can buy to support the pond!
Not a quilting spot but we had to stop just because of the name! It was a beautiful lake....er pond. |
that is way up in Groton, quite a trip from Ludlow.

Thank you all for your suggestions. I have a route planned and I will post reviews of my stops.

There's an absolutely terrific quilt shop in Chester and I don't think it's to far from Okemo. I just love this shop and you won't be disappointed.
