Stony Creek Harbor in Branford Photos Near the Riverwalk 55+ Community
Stony Creek Harbor in BranfordThe Connecticut shoreline consists of numerous coves and harbors--this is just one in Stony Creek. View a map of the Connecticut shoreline.
On our visit, we found it amazingly peaceful. None of these boats are yachts--just small pleasure boats in seasonal slips. Seniors were out strolling or in their small motorboats.
Docks and slips and small boats everywhere in this cozy cove...
