Middletown Springs

Middletown Springs Highlights

“The gem in the hills” is what many people call Middletown Springs. It was formed by settlers that were unable to get to meetings due to the surrounding mountains, so asked to have their own town. (Can you imagine?) A sweet bedroom community of small businesses and craft people, you will smile as you enter. The word “Springs” was added to the name due to the historic finding, bottling, and use of spring water. During the 1800s, visitors came to the area for the hydro-therapeutic use of this crystal clear liquid that was found here. Grand hotels were built to accommodate the influx of visitors. An historic district comprising 91 buildings, mostly residential, in the town center, have been preserved. A collection of mid-19th century architecture envelops this adorable town including a Greek Revival Community Church and the Colonial Revival Schoolhouse. Nearby lakes, rivers and beautiful mountains, all for outdoor activities, invite you to spend time relaxing. An “enormous amount of community spirit and civic engagement” is shared in Middletown Springs. Sissy’s Kitchen, a MUST SEE restaurant, run by a famous retired chef, creates superb offerings. Surrounded by beautiful gardens, to fill your eyes with delight…..as you relish on scrumptious food…..all while dining on the porch. Oh, how inviting does that sound!?!
