NORTHSHOREMAG.COM 48 JUNE + JULY 2021 if they never wanted to leave their gorgeous accommodations. Located on Pavilion Beach, Beauport is a 94-room hotel that exudes a vibe that's both luxurious and welcoming. "Many times, guests say they don't want to leave the hotel because everything's right there," says Beauport director of communications Jeanne Hennessey. Not only are there luxurious guestrooms, onsite dining at the full-service 1606 Restaurant & Bar (with both indoor and outdoor seating), and a beautiful beach, but there are also amenities that take a stay at Beauport to the next level, like the Birdseye Rooftop Pool & Bar. There are bikes to borrow, beach games to play in the sun, and board games to brighten rainy days. Guests can relax with a cocktail on the deck or use one of the hotel's stand- up paddleboards or kayaks to get active on the water. There are even Beauport Exclusive Experiences like a private schooner sail. "There's a tranquility that you feel as soon as you walk in the door," Hennessey says. beauporthotel.com B R I A R B A R N I N N Rowley Rowley is a quintessential small and bucolic North Shore town, which makes a stay at the quietly sophisticated Briar Barn Inn even more special. Its guest rooms exude rustic elegance, and the extra touches—like the cozy fireplaces in the common areas and the room service that's available—make a stay there even more special. Even though Rowley is a small town, a weekend stay is easy to fill with fun things to do. Visitors can scour the vast flea market at nearby Todd Farm for antiques and treasures; sip local wine from Mill River Winery; and hike through Mass Audubon's Rough Meadows Wildlife Sanctuary. There's also plenty to do right on the Briar Barn Inn property, too, like dinner, brunch, or drinks at the onsite Grove restaurant or a spa treatment at the onsite spa, which at press time, was planning a summertime reopening after being closed during the pandemic. "People have been exploring their own area with fresh eyes," says Sarah Boucher, vice president of marketing and communications, and Briar Barn Inn is a great place to do exactly that. briarbarninn.com Top to bottom, Addison Choate in Rockport; Beauport Hotel in Gloucester; and the Briar Barn Inn in Rowley.
