We have donated a Night at the Hawthorne Inn to benefit these two worthy organizations: The Thoreau Society, the oldest and largest organization devoted to an American author, and the Thoreau Farm Trust, steward of the recently restored Henry David Thoreau birthplace. Proceeds from the auction will support the respective missions of both nonprofit organizations. Auction ends March 18th.    Check-out all of the wonderful offerings.

The village and fields will be over-run with Redcoats and Patriots as we celebrate the 236 anniversary of the "Shot heard 'round the world", fired at Concord's Old North Bridge and the beginning of our War of Independance. 

The entire weekend is a  celebration;  replete with parades, reenactments, commemorative ceremonies and the Patriot's Ball. Please see the Schedule of Events 

World-class musicians in an intimate atmosphere just minutes from the Inn. The coffeehouse offers a diverse calendar of artistic styles featuring World-music, Folk, Blues, Jazz, Celtic, Flamenco...  Great food and Fantastic Music!

Four literary giants, five author's homes and one extraordinary town. We are pleased to introduce Gatepost Tours, who will help you see it all through uniquely crafted tours, personal attention, wit and scholarship. Visit Gatepost Tours
