Frommer's Review

Twin Farms offers uncommon luxury, privacy, and romance at uncommon prices. Housed on the 300-acre farm that was once home to Nobel prize-winning novelist Sinclair Lewis and his wife, it's a tasteful small resort. The compound consists of a main inn (4 units), lodge (2 units), farmhouse (4 units), and 10 outlying cottages. All accommodations are rustic yet cleanly modern, with Scandinavian furnishings, modern art, and other master touches; the Aviary cottage, for instance, has a delightful bathtub of hand-set stone in the living room that looks like a birdbath and seems to flow from the stone fireplace. The owners are noted art collectors, and work on display includes originals by David Hockney, Roy Lichtenstein, and William Wegman. This is as close to all-inclusive as New England gets: Rates include three chef-prepared gourmet meals daily, an open bar, use of all the resort's recreational equipment, and transport from local airports.

Facilities:
Restaurant; lake swimming; 2 tennis courts; fitness center; Jacuzzi; watersports equipment rental; bike rental; game room; concierge; car rental; courtesy car; limited room service; in-room massage
