The Place

Connecticut vacations are inundated with rich historical sites and in order to make the most of your stay, start by picking from some of the cozy Connecticut hotels. You can visit Yale University in New Haven, Old Mistick Village in Mystic, the Dinosaur Place in Montville, and you can relax at any of the beautiful beaches of Madison or Clinton. For the more explorative traveler, take a ride on the Essex Steam Train and Riverboat or climb on the Heublein Tower for a most extraordinary view.
