Stockbridge Welcomes You 2020 - 2021 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.

THIS QUAINT NEW ENGLAND TOWN BRIMS WITH NATURE • HISTORY • CELEBRITY • ROMANCE • INTRIGUE
Every Stockbridge season is stamped with its own beauty and charm; the green and flower-filled lushness of spring and summer; a fall foliage palette without rival; the winter feel of an old-fashioned Christmas card. Enjoy a wide range of outdoor activities or take a deep breath, inhale the Berkshire mountain air, and slow your pace to match the town’s character. Stroll our streets, pathways, and gardens. Indulge your senses in our beautiful rolling hills surroundings and perhaps catch a glimpse of one of our many wild, indigenous inhabitants.
