Granby Connecticut Homes for Rent

Slowly evolving from its agricultural roots, Granby has managed to retain much of its rural character.  Covering a full 41 square miles, Granby invites newcomers to explore winding backroads, pick produce at a family farm, or relax on the porch swing.  The town of East Granby was actually formed from Granby and Windsor Locks, establishing an incorporated municipality of 17 square miles.  Newcomers will enjoy seeing wild turkeys and deer in the rolling hills near the old New-Gate Prison, once a copper mine and now a National Historic Landmark.  The old canal railroad track is becoming part of the Farmington Valley Greenway, forming a walking and biking trail between Suffield and Simsbury.
