Here Are 10 Connecticut Swimming Holes That Will Make Your Summer Epic
Swimming holes are an amazing way to cool off in the summer. It’s all the fun of a pool, but you also get breathtaking views and wildlife. Plus, if you don’t have a pool of your own, going to a natural hole is usually cheaper than signing up for community pool access. So dive in, literally!
