A Letter from the Innkeeper
Well the summer is almost here with fireworks, parades, games,races, water polo and vendors of all sorts! That's right the annual Saxtons River 4th of July is coming and you will be sorry if you miss it! Saxtons River has a great celebration planned for the enjoyment of your entire family there will be something for everyone!
The Saxtons River Inn is almost completely booked but we still have a few spaces call and check for availability for the July 4th weekend! We are looking forward to seeing friends from near and far. Our pub will be open early and Jess and the crew will look forward to serving you something cool to drink. We are not serving dinner at the Inn the night of the 4th as there are so many great activities going on as well as the BBQ at the Saxtons River Recreation Center accompanied by a dance and fireworks that evening. This is a great time for our loyal crew here at the Saxtons River Inn to enjoy some time off with their families and friends. We hope to see all of you that weekend at the Inn and at the Recreation area on the 4th.
The team and I would like to once again welcome the FASEB to the Saxtons River Inn. FASEB holds their summer conferences at Vermont Academy and folks from all over the world are going to be in attendance.
The ongoing improvements to the Inn are exciting! We have completely renovated one of our lovely guest rooms, and I am reconstructing the posts and the side rails off the garden area, all of these projects help us maintain the atmosphere of a historical Inn.
Our dining room is bustling with excitement over Chef Websters specials and culinary delights. The weather has been beautiful and having dinner alfresco on the front porch or in the garden patio is a treat after a long winter.
We hope you come down and enjoy yourself for dinner or a drink at the pub. Our staff is knowledgeable and are always happy to make a suggestions, I know you won't be disappointed.
We are looking forward to a fantastic summer, and the staff and I look forward to seeing you in the near future!
Sincerely,
.Bob
