sites between Copenhagen and Stockholm

I am planning on visiting Stockholm traveling from Copenhagen round trip, 8/1-8/4. Does anyone have any suggestions of places to visit in Sweden on the way there or back? Looking for something that is not an urban location that would give me a good taste of rural or smaller town life in Sweden! Thanks!

How does this fit in with your overall travel plan and will you only have 3 days for this including time in Stockholm?
Also are you taking the train or renting a car?

I will be in Stockholm for 3 days. I have two extra days on either side of those 3. Sorry I wasn't more clear.

Thanks!

I‘d say Visby is a nice choice, but maybe not the most obvious between Copenhagen and Stockholm, since it will require a couple of flights. especially the leg between Visby and Copenhagen can be expensive and might even require a change in Stockholm.
Other choices could be Eskjö or Kalmar.
Closer to Copenhagen you could visit Lund.

It's not that hard to visit Visby between Stockholm and Copenhagen. From Stockholm take the ferry to Visby. When finished on the island, take the ferry to Oskarshamn, then a bus to Kalmar from where there are direct trains to Copenhagen. You can also stop by Glasriket on the way.
