We made the cover of Cape Cod Today!

Today I invite you all to come warm yourselves in front of our wood burning fireplace, and sip some hot mulled cider and homemade cookies. It may be the coldest January on record, but here at The Lodge there are heartwarming times within! Our great room is the perfect place to kick back after a hard day of XC skiing, and I’ve been baking up a storm just for the occasion!

Let me tell you a little about our “January White Sale” … and why not?! Who says White Sales have to apply only to department stores? I invite you to “Jump into January” with our first annual ‘White Sale’ at The Lodge! There’s plenty of White Stuff outside, so come take advantage of all that “The Whites” (Mountains, that is) have to offer in winter. Stay at The Lodge a minimum of 2 midweek nights (Sunday through Thursday) for only $79/night … and you’ll also enjoy free XC Skiing, tubing and Snowshoeing. My wonderful Continental Breakfast is included. (This special rate does not include Holidays or vacation weeks, tax or gratuity however).

Got a phone call this morning from Travel Writers Walter Brooks & his wife Patricia, founders of the Best Read Guides, Cape Cod today and eCape.com. They stayed with us at The Lodge last weekend and had such a grand time here at The Lodge and in Jackson enjoying the winter fun, that they wrote an article about their weekend and featured us on the cover of their magazine, Cape Cod Today. Here’s the link … http://www.capecodtoday.com/blogs/index.php/2010/01/10/the-best-x-country-skiing-in-new-england?blog=105 Why not take them up on some of their favorite picks for winter fun in Jackson? “To Infinity and Beyond”

A personal family update: Dana and our two youngest children (Zia and Joshua) have embarked on a 2 ½ week-long mid-winter adventure in Panama, where they are currently exploring the cloud forests, the Panama Canal, discovering live sand dollars on the beach, and basically basking in the tropical breezes of the Pacific Ocean. They’ve been high up in mountain villages and down inside huge craters of (hopefully extinct) volcanoes! Their cell phones don’t seem to work down there, but we have been Skype-ing with them via satellite and laptops. They may still be officially in our eastern time zone, but they are more than a world away from ‘our world’ in New Hampshire, where temperatures have been diping to the single numbers at night, our Cross Country skiing is in full swing and skiing conditions in general are just fantastic. Come for a visit and we’ll give you passes to Snowshoe, XC Ski or go tubing for FREE!
