Wants you To KNOW

Griswold is known as the Sunflower Capital of Connecticut and is a growing community located in Southeastern Connecticut. It is situated right off Interstate 395. Although Griswold has, in the past, been mostly farmland, Griswold is building a strong tourism base. Located less than 20 miles from the Mohegan Sun Casino, and Mystic, and 10 miles from Foxwoods, we are a perfect destination location. We have a bed and breakfast, Comfort Inn, gift shops, numerous restaurants, and River Ridge, an 18 hole golf course. Griswold is rich in forests, lakes, and rivers. It is the home of Hopeville State Park and Pachaug State Forest, the largest state forest in Connecticut. You will find many campgrounds nestled along the shores of the Pachaug and Quinebaug Rivers. Whether you favor a rowboat, canoe, or motorboat and water skiing, you will find the perfect body of water to explore. All have state boat launch access.
