Take part in our family fun packages this summer – book two double beds or two bedroom apartments and pick your activity of Dinosaur Park, Essex Steam Train or Ocean Beach Park.

Yes, if you book an apartment and request 600 bldg, 2nd floor you can see them.  Or you can have a picnic as hotel guests and the picnic area on the property is a good site to see some of the larger fireworks in the display as well.

Join us for the great extravaganza on the Thames River July 10th for the famous Grucci Fireworks display.  Get into either town by 5pm and get a spot along either side of the River for this annual event done to music.  You have to see it, if you never have.  Why the 10th of July you may ask, the Grucci Family is busy and spread out with their July 4th events so we have always had them the Saturday after the 4th.  Good to know!

“An Evening with Sylvia Browne”-renowned author & psychic, in the Fox Theater. 

This week I discovered and wanted to pass along to you…there are a number of days each year (I believe 5-8) when you can drive the steam train at the Essex Steam Train and Riverboat for an hour for $500.  Please contact the them at www.essexsteamtrain.com  for the details.  I thought this is a great idea and gift for the person who has everything and wants a new life experience or has an interest in steam trains…..

Remember we have banquet space for 800.  When we have a banquet it doesn not mean there is waiting in the dining room.  Our lobster special (Wed-Sun) and Prime Rib (All-You-Can-Eat Thurs), may not have a wait when it is banquet cars in the lot…..
