Charlie and Brian hope that this note finds you all doing well. We have been having our best time hosting you all ever since opening our doors way back in 2013!
What a season 2026 has been so far too! We had our best May and July ever and have been thrilled that you have enjoyed all of the updates & renovations we introduced at the beginning of the season. We look forward to showing you even more updates with both new guests and our beloved return guests alike. Our photo albums per room showcase all of the updates to the Old Manse that we have been so happy to make over the last 13 years. The scrumptious new recipes for breakfast, especially the Orange Croissant Egg Bake and Lemon Ricotta Pancakes went over really well. Sign up for our newsletter to receive all of the updates!
As we start to prepare for the new 2027 season, our calendar will be posted on Labor Day – Monday, September 7th. So if you are seeking specific dates and/or specific guest rooms, book early. You will receive the best rates as well before the calendar starts to fill up!
Don’t forget that since becoming members of Select Registry (SR) in 2023, we now have 2 reward programs going strong into 2025. Our original program is based on the number of stays here at the Inn. We recently had to expand our program to 20 stays as returning guests have already reached 15 stays with us! The SR program is based on the number of nights. Every 12 nights you stay, you get $100 that can be used at any Select Registry inn across the country! Please contact us for more information.
In the meantime, if you have any questions about booking a reservation or want more details about your stay, please reach out directly to us at the Inn via email ([email protected] or phone 508-896-3149).
