Delight in the glory days of the railroad paired with quaint New England charm as the Club offers two excursions to the Connecticut River Valley. You set the pace on these drive-yourself weekends while we provide the first-class amenities, including dinner train dining! Highlighted by Friday evening tickets at one of America’s world-class musical theatres, The Goodspeed Opera House in East Haddam, our weekends include a two-night stay at the Inn at Middletown, just 30 minutes away. Located on Main Street, the historic National Guard Armory has been transformed into an elegant 100-room inn situated at the entrance of renowned Wesleyan University. With charming, colonial-style decor, the Inn has a restaurant, lounge and indoor pool and spa. Main Street, part of the Broad Street Historic District, offers visitors a classic New England experience and contains a variety of shops, restaurants and entertainment. To ensure you’re free to relax and take in the panoramic views of the valley, we’ve included dinner Saturday night aboard the elegant Essex Clipper train’s lavishly restored 1920s Pullman cars. The experience of chugging past scenic vistas aboard a classic steam engine truly reminds us that some things should never end, especially weekends.
