Spring Time has Arrived! Celebrate with $100 rooms this weekend.

When the daffodils are at full attention, when the rhubarb is showing it’s leafy green stalks and when every morning we are greeted to the songs of the many many birds in the yard we know that spring has arrived. That’s exactly what’s happening here at the Scranton Seahorse Inn in Madison on the Connecticut shorline. After a tough winter spring is such a welcome event this year that we are celebrating with $100 rooms throughout this beautiful weekend in April.

Reconnect with your partner by taking some long walks along the beaches at Hammonassett or on the trails at Bauer Park or Chatfield Hollow. There’s also an early morning birdwalk led by Jerry from the Audubon Shop here in Madison (we’ll feed you early if you choose to go). Whatever it is you decide to do just come out of hibernation and celebrate spring – Scranton Seahorse style. Call 203.245.0550 or book online at scrantonseahorseinn.com

Spread the word to any veteran you know that deserves a night away and have them call us. And to my friends Josh Curry, Ron LeFebvre, Jerrod Sutcliffe, Ben Rogers, Vincent Carucci, and Shane Hobart I salute you every day but especially on this day – Veteran’s Day.
