With its Main Street shops, historical town green and quaint atmosphere, New Milford is the perfect small-town backdrop for a Norman Rockwell painting. Located in Western rural Connecticut, and nestled against the Housatonic River, New Milford served as the hub for the outer-lying rural communities.

First incorporated in 1712, New Milford maintains its historical tradition and small-town atmosphere with village art and craft fair days, parades, fireworks, community theatre, storytelling, caroling and bandstand concerts.

Since the 1950s, this rural community has grown in population, with new industry and technology coming to town. Luckily, it has modernized without losing its charm or its historical architecture (despite a serious fire in 1902).

New Milford boasts an array of specialty shops and antique stores, gourmet restaurants, historic buildings and nearby recreational activities like canoeing and hiking trails.
