A sense of welcome enfolds you at the Hawthorne Inn.The Thoreau room offers an opportunity to gather by the fire with a book or enjoy some good conversation.
Each morning, around a convivial common table, breakfast is served on hand-painted Dedham pottery.Concord: home of Poets and Patriots.
Texture and color playfully comingle to amuse you in this folk-art filled guestroom, where teal walls sprout hand-crafted decorations and grapevines entwine the carved posts of the Queen bed. Tiled bath with walj-in shower.This cozy ground floor room is furnished with a c.1820 tiger maple Double canopy bed. The west facing windows look out over a garden ares and small field. The skylight brings a radiant glow to the peach-tint flowered wallpaper. Full bath with tub/shower combo.
Sunrise filters through a sieve of ancient maple boughs and breaches the bay-window  as an autumn morning embraces you with a glow of burnt umber.The play of sun through skylight washes the lace-draped Canopy Queen bed with an exciting contrast of subdued shadow and vibrant color.

A short walk from the Inn a landscape is unveiled of Colonial stone-walls, rivers and fields.A warm welcome from the Innkeepers!
