Mayflower Inn and Spa, Auberge Collection

A modern take on New England style blends with the charm of an English country house and standalone cottages. Rooms and suites feature four-poster beds, and oriental rugs, while nature views enhance the retreat’s intimate feel. Suites may feature private balconies, gas fireplaces, or wood-paneled libraries.

The Mayflower Dining Room serves dishes crafted from locally sourced ingredients, such as artisan cheese and fresh fish. The Garden Room, overlooking the Shakespeare Garden, offers breakfast and lunch. Visit The Tap Room for dinner, casual country fare, and a handcrafted cocktail.

The spa boasts an indoor and outdoor pool, a whirlpool, hammam, thermal sanctuary, relaxation lounge, state-of-the-art fitness center, yoga studio, and tennis courts. Unwind with a massage, facial, or body treatment. The spa also offers holistic health consultations, such as guided meditation and stress management, and salon services.

Embark on a private guided hike with a local naturalist through the countryside to Macricostas Pinnacle, where you’ll enjoy a picnic with views of Lake Waramaug. During the summer, take a canoe ride around Mayflower Pond before returning to the inn for croquet and happy hour on the lawn. During the winter, snowshoe and cross-country ski nearby trails or take a day trip to Mohawk Mountain Ski Area.
