Make a weekend of it

Three days,
one small town.

Williamstown is walkable: most festival venues are within a half-mile of Spring Street, the town's commercial heart. That means you can leave the car parked, slip from a Clark Art set to a Spring Street dinner to a Chapin Hall finale without ever raising your pulse.

The town fills up festival weekend — book lodging early, make dinner reservations a week out, and plan on Sunday breakfast somewhere unhurried. The Berkshires reward people who linger.
