Gather with Thanks

There’s no warmer place to gather during chilly months than the Wickwood Inn. A cozy and elegant home-away-from-home, the entire inn makes for an ideal setting when you want to spend meaningful time – and make special memories – with people you enjoy. We recently hosted a Gentlemen’s Retreat, and welcomed an eleven-couple group of good friends as they took over the inn to celebrate Friendsgiving in sophisticated style (no-fuss hosting, we call it!).
