    "It’s a quiet country town. It’s about 10 minute drive to the highway in either direction. We are close to downtown Norwich, 10 minutes to Lisbon Landing. Very close to both casinos."

    "Nice country roads to walk on the only downside is there aren’t sidewalks. Sometimes cars travel too fast on the back roads"
