Travelers rave that this charming town is the top fall destination, earning the nickname 'America's Prettiest Town.'
Summer is perfect for lakeside relaxation, winter calls for cozying up in a ski lodge, but where in the U.S. offers the ultimate fall experience with stunning foliage and autumn treats like cider donuts?
One Reddit user asked, and the r/travel community eagerly answered. A tiny Vermont town with fewer than 3,000 residents quickly emerged as the clear favorite, receiving the most mentions and upvotes.
Woodstock, Vermont, often called 'America's Prettiest Town,' may only have a small population, but when autumn arrives, the town becomes a hotspot for leaf enthusiasts.
"Woodstock Vermont was stunning when I visited last October. The entire state was breathtaking," said user Most-Initiative-7787. The comment garnered over 320 upvotes. Others chimed in, with one Vermont local adding: "Woodstock is incredibly beautiful! Our state has countless charming towns, vibrant fall foliage, and we go big for the season! For cider donuts, check out Allen Brothers off Exit 5 in Westminster."
After some research at Dinogo, we can confirm that Allen Brothers Farms is a fall must-visit. With 'award-winning' cider donuts, a farm stand, and a garden center, it’s full of seasonal charm. The deli serves fresh sandwiches on homemade bread, and don't miss the baked mac and cheese!

One user recommended a scenic drive along the Blue Ridge Parkway, famously known as 'America's Favorite Drive.' The 469-mile route winds through the Appalachian Mountains, connecting Cherokee, North Carolina, to Afton, Virginia, passing through parts of both the Great Smoky Mountains and Shenandoah National Parks. Reddit user wanderingdg confirmed, 'New England is great, but the Blue Ridge Parkway and especially the Shenandoah Valley are stunning in the fall!'
Another user, funkmon, brought up Michigan, earning over 140 upvotes. Rather than mentioning specific towns, they said, 'Fall is a feeling in Michigan. I haven't experienced it anywhere else.' They added, 'In Michigan, visiting cider mills in the fall is in our DNA. You haven’t truly had cider doughnuts until you’ve seen the apples pressed into juice, bottled fresh, and enjoyed it unpasteurized while waiting for doughnuts hot from the oil.'
Other users suggested Duluth, Minnesota; Georgia (highlighting Dahlonega, Ellijay, and Blue Ridge); Beacon, New York; and Bend, Oregon as fantastic fall destinations.
