Travel Note
We all know the song: Skip the traffic, enjoy The Sound! Drive aboard the Port Jeff Ferry to cut down your travel time out of New York. The ferry ride is about an hour, with 4 hours drive time from Bridgeport, CT to Pittsfield, VT along the beautiful Route 91. We recommend stopping at the Vermont Welcome Center, your 1 hour left mark. Please be sure to book your ferry ticket in advance to guarantee a spot!
Travel Note
The Cross Sound Ferry is another great option to avoid traffic off the island. The drive out to Orient Point will take you through the farms and foliage of Long Island's North Fork. From there, you'll arrive in New London, CT, and the drive will be another 4 hours to Pittsfield, VT along route 91. The Vermont Welcome Center is a good last minute stop with an hour left of the drive. Please be sure to book your ferry ticket in advance to guarantee a spot!
Travel Note
Traveling by car will take about 6 hours with much of the drive taking you through rural Upstate New York. We recommend stopping at TASTE NY Todd Hill about 2 hours in along the Taconic State Parkway, and again at the Stewarts Shops in Hoosick, about an hour and a half from Pittsfield. As upstate NY cellphone service can be patchy, make sure you plug in your destination early on to get the whole drive loaded up. The route does have tolls!
