With its beautifally revitalized streetscape, multiple downtown pocket parks and waterfalls, gorgeous historic architecture, quaint shops, and multiple lodging options and restaurants, Brandon is a top choice for visitors from all over and for all ages.

Brandon is situated at the crossroads between Routes 7 and 73 between lakes and mountains. The Moosalamoo National Recreation Area is just up the road a piece and Branbury State Park is just a stone throw’s away.
