While at the College to see the Botanic Gardens, I was impressed by the lovely layout of the grounds, which were first class. The campus is only one mile from the Amtrak Northampton Train Station, which makes for a very convenient way to get to the town, either from the north of south for students, staff, faculty, and alumni. In the summer, Amtrak will run two more round trip trains to Northampton to add to the existing one round trip train.

The annual Vespers service at Abbey Chapel is an extraordinary event. The Mount Holyoke College Choirs are talented singers and the accompaniments are equally talented, including organ, piano, flutes, cello, electric guitar, drums and others. They presented a wide variety of Christmas and holiday music, with numerous opportunities for the audience to sing well known Christmas carols with the choirs. Kudos to Mount Holyoke College and its faculty, staff and students for presenting this exceptional Christmas gift free to the public.

This was the ultimate apple picking experience. There was so much to do and the apples were delicious. We were there with 7 kids between the ages of 10 years and 11 months and everyone was entertained for hours. I can’t remember a time I’ve enjoyed an apple more. Such a beautiful orchard.

This New England museum of history and art is presented as a preserved 330-year-old western Massachusetts village, which features a collection of 18th- and 19th-century houses.
I was driving the Mohawk Trail as part of a long drive but I'd read about HIstoric Deerfield and wanted to visit but the guide books did little to prepare me for just how amazing this place is! It really is like stepping back in history a few hunderd years. Simply stunnig. Sadly, I had very little time so just drove slowly through town and stopped to take a few photos before having to leave - I would have loved to spend much longer here to visit some of the museums and just to wander around taking in the atmosphere. This place is an amazing step back in time and is really worth setting aside some time to visit.

Open for tours from March to mid-December, the birthplace of Emily Dickinson is registered as a National Historic Landmark.
Although the house museum is currently closed due to Covid, when things return to normal, this is an important stop for anyone planning to attend performances at Tanglewood, Jacobs Pillow or the Williamstown Theatre Festival. Conveniently close to these Berkshire cultural destinations, an afternoon spent at the home of America’s most famous woman poet, is a fabulous way to celebrate the talent of the woman who penned lines like “ There is no frigate like a book to take us lands away” and “I’m nobody! Who are you? Are you nobody too? Then there’s a pair of us - don’t tell”. If you have somehow missed the magic of her words or forgotten them, what an introduction. The docents are professional and full of Emily Dickinson trivia. You’ll love your afternoon acquainting or reacquainting yourself with this revolutionary poets life and work. Allow two hours. We stayed across the street at the charming and very affordable Amherst Inn, but if you’re looking for fancier accommodations, the Inn at Boltwood is a block away ( the former Lord Jeff).
