Cargill Falls Reservoir

Highlight • River

At Cargill Falls, you'll find a dam and cascades right in the heart of the city. From the Pomfret Bridge on US-44, you can see the wide dam and several flowing channels clearly. An island splits the Quinebaug River and the dam, creating a beautiful display of cascades below as the river rushes to reconnect.

Blackwell Brook Covered Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

On a quiet backroad not far from Brooklyn, Connecticut, going through pristine countryside, you will find yet another beautiful covered bridge. The Blackwell Brook Bridge, also known as Levi's Mill Bridge, is built in the typical truss design, but the side is exposed so you can see through the trusses.
