"Miss every lake, miss every hill / Even in dreams, I think of them still / And when you see them, you'll agree / Connecticut is the place to be." - "Connecticut" performed by Michael Feinstein, written by Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane
When it comes to lake and hills, Winsted, Connecticut is the place of dreams. Nestled in the mountains of Litchfield County, the town of Winchester/city of Winsted is known as the gateway to the Berkshire Mountains; it also has the distinction of having been one of the first mill towns in Connecticut. Here you live can the dream by fishing in beautiful lakes, boating, and swimming in freshwater springs. With a population of 7,712, Winsted offers quiet living in a tight-knit community. When you first drive through town, Northwestern Connecticut Community College and an eclectic mix of historic architecture types -- from ecclesiastical to Victorian and Greek Revival -- may catch your eye. Although Winsted isn't big in size, you can still enjoy big-city amenities in nearby Hartford, Boston, New York City, and Providence. Once you step foot in Winsted, you'll agree -- Connecticut is the place to be. See more
