When is the best time to go to Blue Hills?

The best time to go to Blue Hills for pleasant weather and outdoor activities is from late spring to early autumn, specifically May through October. During these months, the weather is generally mild and comfortable, with warmer temperatures great for exploring the many hiking trails and enjoying the scenic beauty of the area. You'll find the Blue Hills Reservation, with its extensive network of paths and viewpoints like the Great Blue Hill, particularly inviting. For those who enjoy water activities and festivals, the peak summer months of July and August are ideal. The local lakes offer opportunities for kayaking and paddleboarding, and many towns in the vicinity host outdoor concerts and farmers' markets which are lovely to experience. If you're interested in seeing the spectacular autumn foliage, late September and October are truly magical. The hillsides transform into a canvas of reds, oranges, and yellows, making it an excellent time for scenic drives and photography.

Top Blue Hills Hotel Reviews

Motel 6 Windsor Locks, CT - Hartford

10/10 Excellent

"good"

Hampton Inn & Suites Hartford/East Hartford

8/10 Good

"The hotel is being redecorated and I don’t think our room was finished (trim etc), but it should be nice when finished. The shower started with ice cold water for 5+ minutes until it finally got warm. Sketchy area: parking lot sign says you assume the risk, and lobby has a Security guy at night. We needed another remote for the tv to stream our shows and the front desk couldn’t help with that. Housekeeping skipped our room. But a good deal for the price: our King studio was spacious, everything clean, and the free breakfast - eggs, waffles, oatmeal, bananas etc - was excellent. I’d try this hotel again."

The Goodwin Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very fashionable hotel in a good location. The mattresses and the pillows were not great. The refrigerator didn’t work. We asked for hangers and did not receive them. The Bell staff and valet staff were excellent. Breakfast buffet was OK. There is a bar on site with minimal food options. No true restaurant on site."
