More land and riversides in Montville
Montville grew from its love of the land. Before it was incorporated as a town in 1786, Montville was valuable farmland around the Oxoboro River sold to English settlers by the Mohegan tribe. This mostly green community of around 18,000 residents has over 28,000 acres of grasslands, multiple lakes, creeks and rivers plus a 700-acre Indian reservation that includes a world-class casino and resort. The area's large homes and lawns, outdoor recreation and easy access to multiple villages around Southeastern Connecticut, make it a popular riverside town.
