Because we're located in an area with so many colleges and universities and rich natural assets, there are always plenty of things to do. While you're here, plan to visit tourist towns like Brattleboro, Vermont and college towns like Keene, New Hampshire, and Northampton and Amherst, Massachusetts. Shop or enjoy outdoor recreational activities in rural gems like Deerfield, and the Mohawk Trail towns of Shelburne Falls and Charlemont -- all a short drive. Hiking the hills like the popular Mount Monadnock outside Peterborough, New Hampshire, and arts events in The Berkshires of Massachusetts, keep our guests busy exploring the heart of New England as soon as they unpack their bags.
