The quality of the trees is great - 5-6 years and we've never had a bad tree. They're full, look green and healthy until the New Year and smell amazing.

Pumpkin Town is mostly a pre-K through elementary age playground but adults have fun too. There are…read moreendless photo stops: come back to the big pumpkin back drop if there's a line when you enter, go straight to face painting before that line grows. Backdrop cutouts, the tractor, and a grow line are other photo stops that keep you coming back. One heads up that admission doubles on weekends, but $8 per person wasn't terrible, and there's a discount if you buy hayride and Pumpkin Town tickets together. Pumpkin facts are all over pumpkin town (pumpkins are hand-painted, costumed each year, and stored nightly, etc.) and it's a fun scavenger hunt for these facts. Jumping houses, tubes, and interactive houses were the best parts for our little one. Credit/debit users, remember to bring cash for postcards as you can send them postmarked from Pumpkin Town, autumn treats like cider donuts and popcorn at the snack stand, and the catapults over the pond aimed at Red Sox and Yankees targets (must be a Mets Family here!). Also remember a couple bucks to cash for the breast cancer donation box, in memory of Sandy herself. Having to bring cash isn't my favorite but there was a farm stand and snack bar with souvenirs where cards could be used. Pumpkin Town is part folk art installation, part amusement park, part harvest fair, and a fun tradition. I only wish they had a Santa Town each winter...

We recently bought a house and have been on the hunt for decor, but we usually struggle to find things. Within 2 minutes of being here, we found a picture that we fell in love to hang in our kitchen. The place just kept going, and this place was totally our style with a mix of new and antique items! I loved the Easter decor they had in the annex and couldn't resist picking up some items to decorate my fireplace mantle with. I found the prices to be very fair, and any staff member we dealt with was pleasant. We will definitely be coming back up!

Going into the store we found it to be very clean, organized and fresh smelling. I say that because a lot of places have a musty smell, this did not. Well placed pens throughout the store. I was pleasantly surprised going around the store. S as I thought we would reach the end, no another area would open up. Very large area to browse. And they have what they call an Annex located across the parking lot. Which was equally nice to go around and browse. Saw a lot of nice furniture that was reasonably priced. Probably will return after sizing our home area to make sure it would fit. Did see a coffee shop on the same complex area, although we did not check it out as we had other spots to go to. All in all a very nice location with nice items to browse and buy.

After getting several bids, I decided on Budget Blinds because of their product quality and great price. Ruth (design coordinator) and Brad (installer) provided excellent service, and Denise (office coordinator) kept me in the loop every step of the way!

If you're in need of window coverings for your home, I highly recommend Ruth and the team at Budget Blinds.

I recently had a fantastic experience renovating my bathroom with Connecticut Custom Creations…read more Before choosing them, I contacted about five general contractors. While many were friendly and professional, the quotes I received felt unusually high for the scope of work being offered. That was not the case with Connecticut Custom Creations. Their pricing was fair, transparent, and very reasonable. As with any new contractor, I wasn't sure what to expect at first. However, Dustin was an absolute pleasure to work with. He guided me through every step of the process and made everything feel easy and stress free. He also provided great advice when selecting finishes and fixtures, helping me choose options that coordinated beautifully and enhanced the overall design. I couldn't be happier with the results, and I am already planning to have my second bathroom remodeled with them as well. If you are considering a bathroom renovation or any major home project, including a kitchen or basement, I highly recommend giving Connecticut Custom Creations a call. You will not be disappointed.

This company is a nightmare to work with due to their mistakes and poor communication. They lost…read moretheir worker, Henry, who did the last renovation work on my attic for me. This time, Renoldo came with his assistant to install one door for $ 1,500.00 and to patch over three huge cracks in the attic ceiling and wall that the company renovated in September, just six months ago. In short, wrong door knobs (twice!), a gap between the door frame and door (which they didn't want to fix), and nearly two, frustrating hours texting Dustin, the manager, who claimed he was right about everything and wouldn't take responsibility for an unsatisfactory job. I had to take doorknob pictures to prove my point because he insisted that he had purchased the right doorknob. WTF! I had to put up with his sarcasm, denials, name-calling, and gaslighting to get him to do the job. One door and a lot of unnecessary stress and aggravation. Never again, even if they paid me a million dollars, will I EVER work with this company again. Addendum: after much ado over everything, the company bought the proper color for the wood filler and filled all gaps and cracks left after they redid the door, which they should do with every door they replace that leaves ugly gaps in people's hardwood floors, even if the prior door installer was considered by them to have installed it improperly.
