Summertime means lots of things for the Velvis family. We love hiking, biking, boating with friends, picnics and LIVE MUSIC! We are a music loving family! If you have ever had the pleasure of staying with us, you have probably heard Bluegrass Music (or Disney) projecting from our kitchen. We have several acoustic guitars available at the Inn for guests to play and a little girl that loves to clap and dance!

There are several local options to enjoy free live music throughout the summer. If you are looking for a larger venue; there are several in Burlington and Shelburne. Below is a list of our favorite spots. If you happen to see us at a show, come say hello and boogie with us!
