Travel

The closest airports to Kent are White Plains, NY (HPN) and Hartford, CT (BDL). The New York City airports (JFK & LGA) are roughly 1.5-2 hours away, depending on traffic. There is no Uber, Lyft, etc. in the Kent area, so please make sure you have arranged your own rental car or travel in advance to get to town. There are train stations that are part of New York's Harlem Valley Line nearby, but most do not have rental cars attached, and you cannot rely on easy transit from the Tenmile station to Kent.

Moments after Joe proposed on this hike in Malibu!

We love spending time in Glen Arbor, Michigan. This particular hike overlooks Lake Michigan & features our standard poodle, Brooks, as a young pup!

We moved to Los Angeles in October 2023. We love to have visitors and were joined for this hike by nieces Noelle, Corinne, & Adelyn (not pictured).

Things To Do

We're so excited for you to see Kent, Joe's hometown, during the fall foliage! Kent has a charming & walkable downtown, nestled in the foothills of the Appalachian and Taconic Mountain ranges.

Kent Falls State Park

462 Kent Cornwall Road, Kent, CT 06757

Kent Falls is a beautiful park within ten minutes drive of downtown Kent. Depending on interest, you can enjoy the falls from the bottom, take the beautiful climb to the top, or tack on a short hike back through the woods. The park is small in size and a very low time commitment, with an outsized bang for your buck. You can easily see the falls in 10-15 minutes and be on your way.

Macedonia Brook State Park

159 Macedonia Brook Road, Kent, CT 06757

Macedonia Brook State Park is within a ten minute drive of downtown Kent. There are plenty of hikes to choose from!

Bull's Bridge

Kent, CT 06785

Bull's Bridge is one of two covered bridges in Connecticut that is still operational & used for vehicles. Originally constructed in the 1700s, the current version dates back to 1842. Take a self guided leaf-peeping tour & make sure you drive through! Please keep in mind that this is a one-lane bridge.

Kingsley Tavern

Excellent bar and food. This was one of Joe's first jobs after college - he worked here on the opening night!

Fife 'n Drum Restaurant & Inn

53 North Main Street, Kent, CT 06757

The Fife is a Kent classic, and an excellent place to get a good dinner with a live pianist on many nights.

Swift is one of the more elevated options in town; it was founded by an alum of Noma in Denmark and Gramercy Tavern in New York.

A very cool coffee shop with excellent drinks, pastries, and lunches.

Shops & Galleries

Kent has numerous antique stores, art galleries, and boutiques, all right off Main Street, including the area off Main Street known as "the Barns". Some of our favorites include Terston's (women's clothing and home goods), House of Books, and RT Facts (design and antiques). There are too many art galleries to name, but a list can be found at the above link to the Chamber of Commerce website.
