We live in Oklahoma and will be traveling to Binghamton, NY in October. We have friends who live in Portland, ME and we all are thinking about meeting in Hartford to spend the weekend together. Where is a good place for two large families to meet, stay and spend some time together for a weekend in October 1998? State Parks? B&B? Also, we would like ideas on family oriented activities. Thank you.
The best place for families to stay for a weekend in Hartford?(Oct 1998)

Hartford is a business kind of town. A good family area for October would be Mystic, CT on the Sound near Rhode Island. There's Mystic Seaport and an Aquarium which are quite near each other. You could look up a motel or b&b easily. We went last year and stayed in a Days Inn, I believe. The casinos are very near here, but you wouldn't want to do them with children. October is a nice month for New England, some people say the best.
