This suburb of Massachusetts is settled between Boston and Providence with about a 30 mile distance to both neighboring cities. Nature preserves, wetlands, and forests make up the beautiful landscape of Bridgewater, Massachusetts. The Great River Preserve holds one of the most scenic and undisturbed stretches of the Taunton River, expansive open fields, woodlands, and rare species. Its trails will take you through 125 acres of nature where you’ll see an abundance of wildlife. This preserve is an asset to the community, as is Bridgewater State University.

Bridgewater State University is a cornerstone to the city with its safe, supportive culture, diverse community, and lively campus. Public transportation is available through the local train stations, and you’ll find a variety of eateries and public parks throughout town. After you find your rental in Bridgewater, be sure to attend one of the university’s events for the community, or admire the Great River Preserve.
