WINDSOR — A hidden gem, now sporting a $2 million polish. For more than a decade, people arriving at the 1,845-acre Windsor State Forest might well have imagined tumbleweed bouncing across an unkempt parking lot. It was that far gone. Today, crews hired by the state Department of Conservation and Recreation are putting final touches on a bold makeover, the first of three steps to rehab this once-popular getaway, officially offline since 2009. Raul Silva, the department’s director of facilities engineering, says major initial work is complete â€” including a new bathroom facility and welcome center, extensive landscaping and a meandering walkway that is accessible to all. More work lies ahead, but for now, the idyll off River Road is open for picnics along a branch of the Westfield River.
