“I just love Stockbridge. I mean, Stockbridge is the best of America, the best of New England.” NORMAN ROCKWELL

Stockbridge is located approximately 2 hours west of Boston via Exit 2 of the Mass Pike, and 2 1/2 hours north of New York via the Taconic State Parkway, Rte. 23, and U.S. Rte. 7. From the west, take Interstate 90 East to B3 of the NY Thruway and follow Rte. 102 East. From Hart- ford, take I-91 north to the Mass Pike, then west to Exit 2.

Stockbridge Welcomes You 2019 - 2020 7 Where to Stay When Norman Rockwell described Stockbridge as “...the Best of New England,” he may have been influenced by the town’s architectural landscape, as well as its tradition of extending hospitality to visitors. Today the town’s innkeepers help preserve Stockbridge’s historic character and maintain its heritage of welcoming guests, while providing the modern amenities travelers have come to expect.

Whether you prefer an historic inn, charming B&B or a newer property, be sure to make your reservations well in advance if you’re planning to visit during the popular summer or fall foliage seasons. PHOTO: JOANA LOPES/SHUTTERSTOCK
