A trail leading from the end of Clarkhurst Road leads past old foundations to a broad, grassy, Connecticut River tidal flat. Interpretive signs assist the visitor in the

Originally, this location was a swamp and later filled in. Tomiko's Japenese Restaurant opened here in 1970 and lasted 17 years before it closed. This location became several other restaurants before Vin and Pat Massey opened Knapp's Landing in 1997. Today, the reins have been turned over to the Massey family. People from all over the region love to come to Knapp's Landing to enjoy the great view and meals. Hats off to the Massey family for keeping the tradition of great food and service here that was started by Tomiko's and the Knapp family 40 years ago!
