Clinton

Clinton is a small town in Hunterdon County, New Jersey, known for its charming rural countryside and its landmark, the Red Mill. Whether you're looking to tour the Red Mill Museum Village, admire art at the Hunterdon Art Museum, or simply relax and unwind while getting lost in shopping and dining, Clinton has it all. The small-town charm will amaze and inspire you on your first visit and every subsequent visit. The Red Mill is a historic museum village comprised of twelve structures and buildings located adjacent to Clinton's town center and Old Main Street. The museum village dates back to the nineteenth century, when Ralph Hunt built the first section of the building around 1810 to process wool and cotton. The Red Mill was a primary industry and manufacturing behemoth at a time when business was just getting started and the Industrial Revolution was kicking off.

The town itself is beautiful and has served as the setting for several Hollywood films, including In and Out, One True Thing (starring Meryl Streep), and My Giant. Rewatch these films and brush up on your movie knowledge if you have the opportunity! Explore the nearby waterfalls by walking across the old iron bridge. After you've had a chance to peruse the downtown shops, you should tap into your creative side by enrolling in an art class or two at the Hunterdon Museum.
