STOCKBRIDGE, Mass. (NEWS10) -- The town of Stockbridge has been chosen as one of the 50 Most Wonderful Winter Wonderland Towns in the U.S.; a list created by Trips to Discover. Known for the 18th and 19th-century buildings that line Main Street, Stockbridge is home to the Norman Rockwell Museum, which houses 998 original paintings and drawings.

Travelers can visit the historic Red Lion Inn, originally established as a tavern in 1773. For those looking for outdoor winter adventures, there are several hiking trails in the surrounding area and also places to cross-country ski.
