About Marble Street Quarry
Marble Street Quarry transforms an old marble quarry into a striking cold spring swimming hole in Vermont. Its towering stone walls and clear, chilly waters create a dramatic backdrop for swimming and cliff jumping. The rugged, natural setting invites you to experience an authentic Vermont swimming hole surrounded by raw geological beauty.
Getting There
You reach Marble Street Quarry via a short walk of about 10 minutes from limited parking nearby. The path is easy but watch for uneven terrain as you approach the quarry’s edge. A paid fee is required, supporting the maintenance of this unique outdoor spot.
What to Expect
Expect brisk, refreshing water that contrasts sharply with the warm summer air. The quarry’s slippery rock surfaces and varying water depths demand careful footing and awareness while swimming or jumping. Quiet and rarely crowded, the atmosphere feels peaceful, allowing you to embrace a secluded Vermont hot springs alternative. Facilities are minimal, emphasizing the primitive nature and encouraging respect for the environment.
Tips for Visitors
Visit in summer for the most inviting weather and water temperatures, but be mindful of the rocks—good water shoes help. Bring your own refreshments and leave no trace to preserve the setting’s natural charm. Due to limited parking and paid access, arrive early to ensure a spot and a serene experience at this distinctive Vermont swimming hole.
