Tolland is a small town with a population of about 300 people. It has few commercial properties and is characterized by a traditional New England village and common. It is bounded on the west by the Farmington River. The northern portion of the town contains a portion of the Otis Reservoir and is part of the Tolland State Park. The southeastern portion of the town contains the Granville State Park. Tolland is a rural hill town in the eastern Berkshire highlands, located on the Farmington River.
