CT's Litchfield County Named One of the Best Places to Visit

Conde Nast Traveler has named Litchfield County one of the best places to visit in the United States, and it’s easy to understand why. The town of Litchfield is just a 30-minute drive from downtown New Milford. The county includes 26 towns, such as Washington, Kent, Salisbury, Woodbury, Cornwall, and Sharon, to name a few.

The Conde Nast Traveler website states, "There's everything from breathtaking hikes to modern art and contemporary-designed hotels." But that's just a tiny portion of what Litchfield County has to offer. I feel the CNT article was written for the affluent traveler, which is fine, but I'm so far removed from that lifestyle. I'm more of a "Let's go for a drive, take some photos, and then find somewhere great to have dinner" kind of guy.
