Rockingham blends riverfront scenery, New England history, and small-town energy into a place that feels genuinely lived-in and well loved. The town’s two distinct villages, Bellows Falls and Saxtons River, anchor daily life with walkable streets, brick mill buildings, and an arts scene that punches above its weight. Catch first-run films and community events at the restored Bellows Falls Opera House, browse stacks and local history at the Rockingham Free Public Library, and keep tabs on town services, permits, and boards through the Town of Rockingham. Outdoor lovers appreciate access to the Connecticut River, nearby trail networks, and four-season recreation, while local eateries and markets make it easy to keep plans close to home.
Education is a highlight. Public schools serve families from pre-K through high school, and the independent Vermont Academy in Saxtons River adds robust academic, arts, and athletics offerings, as well as community performances and exhibitions. Health care and jobs are within easy reach in Springfield, home to Springfield Hospital. Commuters value quick connections to I-91 and rail options from Bellows Falls, and home seekers will find a range of housing—from classic village Victorians to hilltop farmhouses and tidy in-town condos.
