Kings Island (Connecticut)

Kings Island is the largest island in the Connecticut River and is located between Enfield and Suffield, Connecticut in Hartford County.

[2] The island was occupied by Native Americans as a springtime fishing spot for shad and salmon before the colonial period.

Since then the island has changed ownership numerous times, including several colonial leaders.

The Terry family operated a farm which acted as a meeting place for Millerites.

[6] There is a 1.7 miles (2.7 km) hiking trail on the island[7] along with a campground operated by the Appalachian Mountain Club.
