First I want to comment on all the messages and emails sent to me. I must have received 40 of them. Very annoying. The last ones were direction on taking the trash out. At 100 bucks a night you should take care of that or did my mother send that message? No message to make sure we made our beds. lol Never saw anyone while there. No cleaning or towel replacement. The beds were comfortable but it was like getting out of a water bed they were so soft. One 2 prong outlet in the room w an ungrounded 3 plug 3 prong adapter. Hair dryer but no outlet in the bathroom. 7 minutes to get hot water to the room with both the shower and sink running. There were also soft spots in the floor outside the bathroom that felt like it was ready to give. Yes mom I brushed my teeth and took the trash out.

I had booked this place for our first ever family trip. We did the nostalgia night at Story Land (all Adults). We actually booked all the rooms in the Inn. let me just say The caretakers Kim and her husband are fantastic. She went above and beyond to make sure all was right with our stay. when she found out we were having a cake for 2 birthdays she offered decorations that she had. she was great with information on where to eat, things to do and great hiking trails. she is definitely an asset to the place, oh and the place was extremely comfortable as it was beautiful it has a very homie feel to it,even though the coffee area of the inn is open to the whole property it truly didn't bother us.I most defiantly will be returning.

I THINK THE BIGGEST PROBLEM I HAD WAS THERE WAS NO ONE THERE TO SPEAK TO ON THE PROPERTY EVERYTHING WAS DONE THROUGH EMAIL. I HAD TO MOVE TO ANOTHER ROOM FOR LAST NIGHT WHICH WAS MY FAULT FOR LATE ADDING ROOM, BUT COULD NOT GET SOMEONE ON PHONE TO AS WHAT TO DO WITH MY LUGGAGE AS I WAS ON MOTORCYCLE DID NOT WANT TO REPACK IT. ALSO THE GRAVEL WAS NOT GOOD FOR MOTORCYLE. IT WOULD BE GOOD FOR FAMILY AND THE PICTURES ON LINE OR REALLY NOT A GOOD PICTURE OF WHAT THE PLACE OUTSIDE LOOKS LIKE THE INSIDE WAS CLEAN AND LIKE THE PICTURES. WAS NOT HORRIBLE BUT FEW ISSUES MADE IT DIFFICULT AT TIMES

THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO ONE TO SPEAK TO DIRECTLY IS VERY INCONVIENT. THE COTTAGE WAS CLEAN AND FINE TO STAY IN. MORE LIGHTS WOULD MAKE IT BETTER AS I CAME BACK AT NIGHT ON A MOTORCYCLE ON GRAVEL AND IT WAS NOT SAFE. THE PICTURES AND THE ACTUAL OUTSIDE WERE VERY DIFFERENT AT 1 AM IN THE MORNING THE HARD WIRED SMOKE ALARM WENT OFF IN MY COTTAGE AND THE ONE NEXT DOOR.TO ME WE WERE UP SEVERAL HOURS THEN I NEEDED TO GET UP AT 5 AM TO GO WITH MY GROUP ON A RIDE. NOT GOOD!!!

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.

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!
