Deerfield is a charming little town, known today for its beautiful ensemble of buildings frozen in time (Historic Deerfield), down Main Street. You should pop into a few of these historical residences before heading off to explore the region: it is one of the loveliest in Massachusetts, bathed by the Deerfield River in the shadow of Pocumtuck Ridge.
