Amherst college, Amherst, MA
I don't know from Phil to Amherst but I went Amherst college several time due to my husband and his father graduated there.
There is Emily Dickinson's house and Robert Frost's Library...
Mt Holyoke is a beautiful campus as well...of course, Amherst's rival, Williams college is, located on Western MA, near the Tangle wood, the home of Boston Philharmony...
Hope someone give more info...enjoy your trip.
