The Aurora Inn is located in the charming village of Aurora, NY, and stages the perfect location to catch up with friends?grab a spot by one of the many fireplaces, hammocks or Adirondack chairs scattered throughout the spacious gardens and grounds to chat, eat and enjoy. Nearby is the home of MacKenzie-Childs where visitors can shop handcrafted ceramics, glassware, home furnishings and more. Like a good bargain? Schedule a trip during the MacKenzie-Childs Barn Sale which is usually held in the summer or early fall (the date is a closely guarded secret and announced on the company?s website just a few weeks in advance).

Enjoy activities such as swimming from the dock, wine tasting, playing board games in the cozy library and spa treatments. Finish the evening with cordials and dessert served by the fire or on the porch. *Those that book during the months of Nov. ?
