The Aurora Inn and Cottages was by far the nicest place I’ve ever stayed in. Two of my grandmothers, my daughter, and myself stayed there for our trip to Storyland. We arrived at The Aurora to see the cutest little cottages. We stayed in The Crawford, which was right across from the pool and sauna. Both the pool and the sauna were clean and well maintained. They provided towels, life jackets, pool noodles, goggles, and even some dive toys to use at the pool for no extra charge. The shallow end was roped off from the deep end, making it easy to assess where children should stay if they’re not strong swimmers. The Crawford room itself was absolutely beautiful. It was clean, comfortable, and well supplied. We had a main room with a king bed (which was the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in), a nice TV, a pullout sofa bed, a coffee bar with a mini fridge, a microwave, ample seating, and beautiful decor. The private bedroom was beautifully decorated with a 4-post queen bed adorned with fake foliage. Closet space, a dresser, and a desk provided ample storage for everything we had with us. The two sleeping areas had charging hubs, which allowed plenty of space to charge all devices. The bathroom was clean, well stocked, and had amazing water pressure. They provided mini lotions and bar soaps, all of which contained goat milk to support sensitive skin. The staff kept in touch via text if needed, and helped with all questions promptly.

Cute cabins, however the renovations which were done recently were not well done. The out side of the cabin had significant paint chipping, the front door would not open all the way due to hitting the ceiling of the out side porch, also the bathroom door would not close easily took alot of force.

We had a nice time at your property. It was clean and quiet. The only complaint we had was that your wifi wasn’t working as we had young children that would have like to wind down after a long day out… and with the bad weather yesterday it was really hard in the room. Another thing was before we left we wanted to grab a coffee in the main building, but it was locked. Other then that our stay was nice.

I really enjoyed my stay at The Aurora Inn. It was nice and quiet. Really excellent coffee bar and snack center. I loved the sauna and the pool was really clean. The room I stayed in was clean and well kept, with a really comfortable bed. There was a couple cool firepits, I liked that the firewood and firestarting materials were provided. I will definitely be staying here again.

You should stay here!

We did a driving tour of New England last week. This was by far the best hotel we stayed out and definitely the least expensive. The room was so spacious. We stayed in the Crawford suite. It a king with a pull out couch and a separate bedroom with a queen. The bed was so comfortable. The bathroom was roomy. The coffee bar was a nice treat. Would definitely stay here again!

Overall a nice place. The road noise can be bad at times, and we didn't appreciate that the checkout time is 10, which is also the time the pool opens, so my wife couldn't get a last swim. Wished there was a human around to answer questions, we never saw the caretaker although there does seem to be one. Still one of the better places in the area based on what we saw driving around.

It’s a little off the beaten path but well worth the stay. Our room in the inn was beautiful. We enjoyed the common area. It was comfortable and impeccably decorated. The coffee bar was well stocked. We hope to stay for a few days next time to enjoy swimming in the sparkling pool and sitting in the sauna. We highly recommend staying here.

My family with two teenage boys had booked one of the cabin room with a queen bed and two bunk beds along with a kitchenette. There's a wonderful private patio set right outside of the door where we had our dinner under the stars. It is beautifully decorated and location behind trees away from the main street with some privacy. The common room area in the main building have chest set, games, guitar, and small breakfast/coffee bar as well as accessible necessities without needing to bother anyone. We had a really nice home away from home vacation during our two night stay and would definitely go back next time.
