Survival List for the Romantic at Heart

Looking for a uniquely romantic idea for your romantic getaway?  Consider these ideas...

1. Simple romance. As you enter the hotel room with your significant other, you're delighted by rose petals spread outside your Guestroom door. As you open the door, you notice the red rose on the pillow and her favorite romantic love story selected from our special collection playing on TV. $29 inclusive.

2. The early bird romantic. A surprise breakfast-in-bed!  You tell us the time and then we’ll set up the romantic breakfast in your room. You wait until your spouse slips into the shower, and when he/she comes out you have breakfast set up and waiting complete with heart shaped pancakes, fresh flowers, white table linens, chocolate covered strawberries and our own passion fruit smoothie. All for just $59 inclusive.

3. Relax and indulge romance. Arrive back at your Guestroom after a busy day... Upon entering your room, you notice the scent of soft candlelight coming from the bathroom. You hear the sounds of your significant other’s favorite romantic music and notice the bath has been drawn with your honey’s favorite scented bubble bath. The latest copy of your sweet's favorite magazine is laying right next to the booklight and robe. All for just $49 inclusive.

4. Over the top romance. Tell us what time you’d like to surprise your sweetheart, and we’ll make all the arrangements. (Note - this amenity includes a free upgrade to a Townhouse Suite.) Your romantic surprise includes a massage for him/her upon your return, a candlelit dinner table will already be set before the glowing fire, with champagne chilling in the nearby ice bucket. After your sweetheart enjoys the massage, you tell us when you want your dinner served while you are serenaded byyour choice of a romantic CD from our collection (yours to keep). At the end of your meal, the Chef will appear and serve a wonderful flambé cherries jubilee tableside. $499 inclusive (plus the cost of standard guestroom). 

A 72-hour advance notice is necessary.  To make this the perfect surprise for your sweetheart, attention to detail is necessary, so these special touches cannot be booked on-line.  Give us a call so Eric or Maura can assist you in making you look like a superhero - or a super-heroine!

Live and Learn Series Schedule:

• Join us at 11:00 AM each Saturday morning as we explore these topics.
• Cost is included in Getaway Package.  $20 fee if you'd like to join us and you're not on a package.  

Claire Oehler & Nancy Mirman – About Quilting   Saturday, January 12th, 2013 (11am-12pm)

Sit with us while we talk about the rich history of quilting, with emphasis on traditional quilts and patterns  We'll discuss the reemergence of a solid interest in quilting during the bicentennial in the mid-70s, the development of the art and craft of quilting since then, up to the modern day of art quilts using non-traditional materials.  Also - using patchwork and quilting techniques to make very wearable clothing. Throughout our presentation we will have many quilts to show, lots of show and tell to bring the stories to life.  Pick up a new hobby or just increase your appreciation for the beauty of quilts!

Claire got involved with quilting in 1973 when a group got together to make a quilt to be raffled for an art scholarship for a graduate of Somers High School - and there’s been no looking back! It’s been a long, wonderful creative journey.  Claire has owned her own quilting shop and has run many seminars about quilting.  Nancy has designed clothing patterns for years and brings a great perspective to the fashion side of quilting.

Jimmy Wayne- A Songwriter’s Workshop      Saturday January 26th, 2013

Do you love music? Have you ever considered writing a song? What goes into a song? Where do you begin? What does it take to get your songs published? Jimmy Wayne, country music artist, will be hosting this interactive workshop live from Nashville, TN via Skype in our Penthouse Lounge. Bring your questions, your journal and your listening ears- Jimmy is quite the storyteller!

Jimmy Wayne moved to Nashville, TN at the age of 25 from Kings Mountain, NC after being encouraged to do so by Mike Whelan- a Nashville executive who was the judge of a local talent competition Wayne had entered. He was signed to Acuff-Rose Publishing where he saw his first #1 hit, “Put Your Hand in Mine” which was recorded by Tracy Byrd. Not long after, Jimmy Wayne received his first label deal after performing “Sara Smile” in the office of music executive Scott Borschetta. His self-titled debut album included hit singles, “Stay Gone”, “I Love You This Much” and “Paper Angels”. Later, his biggest hit yet, “Do You Believe Me Now” became a three-week #1 hit single.

All proceeds from this workshop will be donated to Project Meet Me Halfway, Jimmy Wayne’s campaign to spread awareness for at-risk foster youth and teen homelessness.

Chef will present you with challenges along the way and after each course will be the judge! The winning couple will receive a bottle of wine, chocolate covered strawberries and bragging rights at dinner that evening. On Sunday start the day with a buffet breakfast and check out at 12pm.
