Things To Do

Mt Sugarloaf State Reservation

You can drive to the top or take a few hiking trails up. Offers a beautiful view of the valley.

Skinner State Park

You can also drive to the top and/or hike up. The top offers beautiful view of the valley as well as a recently renovated summit house to tour.

Lake Wyola

This is a great little lake a few miles up the road from the Montague Retreat center. Good for a quick swim or kayak. We use to live in Shutesbury and would frequent this spot often.

Smith College Museum of Art

Amherst college MEAD Art and Beneski Natural History Museums

The Lady Killigrew at The Montague bookmill

"Books you don't need in a place you can't find." We promise it's not that difficult to find and very close to the wedding venue. The Bookmill is a truly unique and special place that we love to bike to and enjoy an afternoon beverage or bite to eat while overlooking the Sawmill river.

Judies Restaurant

Where it all began... Where we first met and proceeded to work for 8+ years in various roles. Good for a hearty meal, gigantic popover, light bite, or delicious cocktail.
