Union is the smallest community in the state, where wooded backroads, clear lakes, and wide night skies define daily life. Set in Tolland County with quick I‑84 access, it offers an easy ride to Hartford for work and culture, while staying quiet at home. You’ll find classic farmhouses, lake cottages, and newer builds on spacious lots, plus convenient connections to neighbors like Willington and Ashford.
Outdoor time is practically a lifestyle here. Hikers, anglers, and paddlers gravitate to Bigelow Hollow State Park and its evergreen valleys, mirrored in the waters of Breakneck Pond and Mashapaug Lake; plan your adventures with the official pages for Bigelow Hollow State Park and Nipmuck State Forest. Winter brings quiet snowshoeing, while autumn paints miles of trails in brilliant color.
Families appreciate the personalized feel of Union School’s PreK–8 campus, where small classes and outdoor learning are points of pride. For town services, meeting agendas, and community news, the Town of Union keeps residents up to date. Big-city amenities are never far, and college-town energy from Mansfield adds options for arts, sports, and dining. Whether you’re upsizing, downsizing, or dreaming of a weekend place, Agent Pronto can connect you with a trusted local expert to buy or sell with confidence.
