Wigwam Attractions


America's Switzerland

The view from the Wigwam was called "America's Switzerland" in the 1920's because it's the best place to see the mountains of three states. Directly ahead is the Taconic range of New York, to the left is Mt. Greylock and to the right is the Green Mountains of Vermont.

At sunset, the beauty of the sun disappearing into the Taconic mountain range while casting an orange veil over the sky is a vision indescribable.

Lea's Landing

Wayne built this Private Observation Deck with unobstructed view of America's Switzerland in 2021.  Cabin guests enjoy watching the sunset over the Taconic Mountains while eating their dinner from Lea's Landing. 


Wigwam Tree of Hope

The Wigwam Tree of Hope was dedicated in November 2018 as a symbol for resilience and hope.  It’s located between the Wigwam Coffeehouse and the Hoosac Range Trail Head off of the Mohawk Trail and it’s marked by a set of wagon wheels and the “America’s Switzerland” sign


Cars & Coffee

The amazing backdrop of America’s Switzerland has been used by car clubs all over New England.  We love cars of all sorts and invite car clubs and other car enthusiasts to come up on weekends to enjoy a cup of coffee and meet each other.  To engage the car community we are introducing the Wigwam Race car in May 2022.  The Wigwam Racecar / Team 18 will participate in local races in Vermont and western Massachusetts.  During foliage weekends (Oct 8, and 15) we'd like to invite the community to meet the Wigwam race car driver and see the Wigwam race car.


Sunset Serenade

What started in 2018 as a way to showcase local talent changed during covid.  Instead of hosting live music on weekends, we now invite musicians of all kinds to perform at the Wigwam Musician’s Corner or at Lea’s Landing to take in the view and delight unsuspecting tourists or cabin guests.
