What keeps people coming back to East Burke? The most obvious reasons would be the natural beauty the area possesses
and the friendliness of the people. However, if one looks closer it's easy to see that this is a community full of life and activity.
Burke offers year round recreation and entertainment through Spring and Summertime fishing, swimming, or boating on Lake Willoughby or Crystal Lake.
Bring your mountain bike or rent one at the two local sports shops and enjoy the developed trail system around Burke Mountain.
If shopping is more your pleasure there are many antique, craft, and country stores to explore. Venture out on a back road exploring trip and take a tour of a working Vermont farm,
browse through the local art gallery, visit a sugarmaker to see how maple syrup gets from the tree to the table, or stop by and sample East Burke's own Micro-Brew. In the summer, the
mountains around Burke echo with the sounds of music from one of many festivals and concerts presented at the Burke Mountain Resort.
