The name of this state recreation area may have a knack at scaring people off, but don’t let it do the same to you. You won’t find any fallen angels or demon’s at Satan’s Kingdom State Recreation Area, but you will find some beautiful lush greenery and a popular river for tubing within it. On warm days, locals love heading down to the area, which is home to the Farmington River, and enjoy an afternoon of tubing and cooling off in the water. What’s great is that access to the recreational area is free, though you will have to pay a small fee to rent a tube if you don’t have your own. Make sure to bring a picnic lunch with you to make it a whole-day occasion.

Boasting a record-breaking 25 medals at the Big E Northeast Gold Wine Competition, the Connecticut Valley Winery is a great place to visit for wine connoisseurs and enthusiasts. The winery is also open to people who are just starting to learn about wines, as visitors are welcome to take tours of the vineyard to learn about how wine is made. Sample some of their award winning vintages, some of their newer bottles, and get to know some great people all at the same time! We recommend tasting some of their red and estate bottled wines like the Black Tie Cabernet Franc, the Chianti the Olè Sangria or the Deep Purple.

Located in New Hartford’s historic Town Hill area, the Jerram Winery is both a culturally and historically rich destination in Connecticut. What makes Jerram Winery special is its longer-than-usual growing season. Their longer growing season means that grapes are able to mature on the vine longer, which results in a more mature and sophisticated quality of wine. It’s also a farm winery, which means that grapes were grown during the off season of farmers as a supplement to their usual income. Visitors can learn more about these special qualities with the Jerram Winery’s tours and cozy wine-tasting sessions.
