Updated Hotel Information

Dear friends and family-

The Wylie Inn is full! We still have three rooms available at the Inn at Castle Hill- just feet from Crane Beach and a wildlife preserve (http://www.thetrustees.org/the-inn-at-castle-hill/). Please email Dave at rand.dave@gmail.com if you are interested in these rooms, as they are currently reserved under his name. We also have rooms blocked at the Hawthorne Inn in downtown Salem, MA.

Additionally, within reasonable driving distance to Willowdale Estate there are several national hotel chains:

• Hampton Inn Boston/Peabody (Peabody, MA)
• Boston Marriot Peabody (Peabody, MA)
• Comfort Inn North Shore (Danvers, MA)

If you looking for something more 'off the beaten path' there are also a number of local inns and B&Bs in the area (this is just a brief list and travel guides or friends may have more recommendations!):

• Country Garden Inn and Spa (Rowley, MA)
• Blue Inn at the Beach (Plum Island, Newbury, MA- right on the Atlantic about 20 min north of Willowdale Estate and 40 min north of Salem)
• Essex River Motel (Essex, MA- for those with a strong stomach, this is a '50s style motel that probably hasn't been updated since the '50s, but is right on the Essex River with low rates)

We hope this helps and we'll keep you posted on upcoming activities as we get closer to the big day!

Hotel information

Hi friends and family, we're really excited for all of you to join us this July 23!

There are many different lodging options, all of which are likely to book up quickly as the Massachusetts North Shore is a popular tourist destination in the summer. So please please book as soon as possible!!

1. We have reserved a block of rooms at the Wylie Inn in Beverly, MA [website]. This is our main hotel spot, and where the immediate family will be staying. It's a nice, clean and new hotel. They only have single queen bed rooms available, although you can get a roll-away bed also if needed. You can call them at 866.333.0859 to make a reservation, and mention that it is part of the Paci/Rand wedding block to get our block rate of $139/night. The Wylie Inn is 25 minutes from Willowdale (Bradley Palmer State Park), where the wedding will be, and we will be arranging shuttles between Wylie and Willowdale on the evening of the wedding.
   
2. We also have a block of rooms reserved at the Hawthorne Hotel in Salem, MA [website]. This hotel is right in downtown Salem, and about a 25 min drive to Willowdale. They have both single and double rooms, and the wedding block rates range from $129/night to $159/night.
   
3. There are a number of small bed & breakfasts around the area. Particularly notable is the Inn at Castle Hill [website]. If you are interested in staying at the Inn at Castle Hill, please send us an email [rand.dave@gmail.com] first as we have preemptively reserved several rooms there. 

And please feel free to send us an email [rand.dave@gmail.com] if you have any questions about lodging!!

Save the date!
