Motel: Country Garden Inn & Motel (map ) Scenic Route 1A Rowley MA 01969 800-287-7773reserve@countrygardenmotel.com
Price Range: $85 - $250
Location: 13 miles from ceremony (directions ) 27 miles from 1st Reception (directions )
Features: The manager recommends that booking be done in early 2003, as that's when people start thinking about summer vacations and booking rooms at hotels on the north shore of Massachusetts. NOTE: Any room cancelled at any time will be charged a $25.00 cancellation
fee. Reservations cancelled within 10 days prior to the arrival date,
will be charged for any night that cannot be re-rented, plus the $25.00
fee.
This is where the extended Plumb family is staying - so depending on whether you DO or DO not want to be nearby, choose accordingly! (If you want to stay close to the reception site, do NOT stay here.)
It's a unique combination of lodging options in a quiet setting along scenic Route 1A. The front of the property features a main house with four spacious country style rooms. The rear of the property is wooded on all sides, and features motel rooms, cottages, fireplaced suites and our new addition including village suites and townhouses. All rooms and units include individual heat controls, air conditioning, telephones, color/cable television, private baths and daily maid service. AAA approved. Pool. Commuter rail service.
Bed and Breakfast: Options in Newburyport (map )
Location: 5 miles from ceremony 19 miles from 1st Reception
Features: Newburyport is NOT the town in which either the ceremony or the reception is being held. But if you want to spend Saturday roaming around a New England town, stay here for convenience. One caution: the Garrison Inn and the Essex Street Inn are already booked for our weekend and many of the other B&B's refuse to book until January 2003.

Price Range: $79.95 - $79.95
Location: 14 miles from ceremony (directions ) 4 miles from 1st Reception (directions )
Features: Nice place and great service! VERY close to reception site.

Price Range: $89.91 - $119.9
Location: 14 miles from ceremony (directions ) 4 miles from 1st Reception (directions )
Features: VERY close to the reception - but I'd go for the Comfort Suites first (for price and service)! The Best Western does have the following: Continental breakfast. Indoor pool.

If you do decide to stay here, make sure to say the rate is $89.91 (exactly). The front desk will know that means a wedding.
