Bring the grandkids—or just be a kid.

If fun is your retirement goal, this community is for you.

Where do Middlewoods Residents head for excitement? Close to Wethersfield, Hartford and Berlin, CT, we’re also close to the action! Retirement gives our community more time to root for our favorites. If you follow men’s and women’s basketball, then you already know the benefits of living in Husky Country: Uconn's teams consistently lead the nation. We’re also home to the Hartford Hawks and the WNBA Connecticut Sun. Hockey lovers will get pumped for AHL Hartford Wolf Pack action. And what’s a better way to spend a summer evening than watching the New Britain Rock Cats turn minor league baseball into major fun?

Take the grandkids to the brand-new Connecticut Science Center or the good-old fashioned Carousel Museum in Bristol. They’re sure to love beautiful Lake Compounce, America’s oldest continuously operating amusement park. Of course, if you prefer strictly grown-up entertainment, you’ll enjoy our jaunts to Foxwoods or the Mohegan Sun, Connecticut’s celebrated casinos, for great dining, world-class entertainment and, oh, the occasional lucky number.

We’ve just scratched the surface of our local attractions. Dig in!
