New Haven is a sleepy little town named after the river that runs through it. The river has several favorite swimming and fishin holes, and great areas for canoeing and tubing.
New Haven has wonderful views of the mountain chains lying on either side of the central valley.
There are many quiet roads for cycling or walking. Beeman Academy overlooks the Village Green,m and there are tow quiant village stores. It is the home of the historic 1796 House, serving wonderful breakfast, lunch and dinner, and the river side Dog Team Tavern and teir hearty Vermont fare. Two favorites for all locals and travelers. It remained in the Barton family until 1931.
