Description
Circa 1920. Romance is the innkeepers' passion at this secluded Cape Cod inn built as a polo lodge in the 1920s. Author J.D. Salinger stayed here while writing Catcher in the Rye, and Paul Newman is another celebrity guest. The lodge features spacious guest suites that all include a whirlpool for two in the sitting or living room within view of the fireplace. An intimate ambiance is inspired by canopy beds, fine linens and candles. Enjoy the inn's signature sticky pecan rolls, fresh fruit and homemade granola for breakfast on the cobblestone patio or brought to the room. Flowers, chocolates, and in-room massages can be arranged. Order the Enchanted Evening Picnic Basket for a quiet fireside dinner for two. Sitting on three gorgeous acres, the gazebo in the English Country gardens, or the hammocks among the trees are favorite spots to share with a loved one. Lake Geneva is just minutes away.
This property has been featured in Walworth Week, Press Publications, Channel 58 Milwaukee Evening News.
Inkeepers Notes
Circa 1920. Co-owners of the Schlitz Brewery built this inn to serve as a polo lodge. Guests will have a hard time believing that some of the guest rooms actually served as stables and a hayloft. Imagine your own secret hideaway -- the fireplace is blazing, the wine is chilling, the room is bathed in soft, flickering candlelight, the sounds of your favorite music are playing in the background and the one you love has joined you for a magical, enchanted evening. Guests have their choice of rooms, which all include a double whirlpool with a view of the fireplace. Romantic amenities also include fluffy bath robes, scented bubble bath, Bath & Body Works products, Godiva chocolate tuffles and, of course, candles. For an extra charge we will also prepare an "Enchanted Evening Picnic Basket" to be enjoyed in front of the fireplace. You can savor the peace and tranquility of three acres of beautiful country gardens surrounding our lodge. We also have a large English cottage garden with a gazebo and a lawn checker set for our guests' enjoyment. Early in his career, Paul Newman stayed at the lodge, and author J.D. Salinger stayed here while writing "Catcher in the Rye."
