About Gaylordsville
Tucked into the northwest corner of New Milford, Gaylordsville is a quiet, scenic hamlet stretched along the Housatonic River near the Sherman and Kent borders. The valley feels remarkably peaceful, surrounded by wooded hillsides and open fields that give the area an easygoing, country character. Driving along Route 7 and the winding back roads, you will see historic farmhouses, riverside properties, and plenty of open space that make the neighborhood an appealing retreat for anyone looking to slow down.
The community has deep roots dating back to the 1720s, when the Gaylord family first settled here, and it has carefully preserved that historic charm over the centuries. Landmarks like the 1740 Little Red Schoolhouse still stand as beloved local icons. For anyone moving here today, Gaylordsville offers a classic New England setting with practical everyday perks, including access to New Milford public schools, scenic outdoor spots, and a straightforward drive to nearby town centers or train stations across the New York border.
