The Interlaken Inn<\/a> is located in Lakeville, Connecticut on the sweet spot between Lake Wononscopomuc and Lake Wononpakook. The middle of nowhere vibes combined with a scattering of cute little nearby towns makes it a very welcoming destination for refugees from the city.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Digs<\/strong><\/p>\n

A variety of lodging is offered at Interlaken Inn, to suit a range of vacation needs. If you\u2019re cozying up for a romantic weekend, rent a room in the Sunnyside House<\/a>, a pristine Victorian that overlooks a wide field and one of the lakes.<\/p>\n

\"Interlaken

If you\u2019re taking a trip with a few friends or family members in tow, a kitchen-equipped Townhouse Suite will house everyone. And if you want to bring a pup along for the ride, stay in the pet-friendly Woodside Rooms<\/a>. If you\u2019re in the mood for a private rooftop hot tub (and let\u2019s be honest, who isn\u2019t?) the Penthouse Suite<\/a> is a well-appointed room that provides just that, and more\u2014there\u2019s a deep soaking tub if you tire of the jacuzzi. Unlikely.<\/p>\n

The Ellora Spa<\/a> offers massages (book the Couples Massage Package), facials, and pilates classes in a cozy, personal environment and is happy to host you, or small groups. And with a spa on the premises, it\u2019s only right to spend half a day there.

The Eats<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Interlaken

From the bread basket that arrives (more like doughnut holes, but herbal and creamy) with local butter and sea salt, to the finishing touch of homemade ice cream in flavors like graham cracker and pretzel, the menu is thoughtful from start to finish. The entr\u00e9es are focused on veggies, which Chef Scimeca prefers to be the star of the show, using meat as an accompaniment. Mains like the Hudson Valley Duck Breast, with farro, lacinato kale, pickled golden beets, and red wine-caramel, delight both carnivores and herbivores alike.<\/p>\n

The Must Do’s<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Local Tip<\/strong><\/p>\n

Check out the nearby town of Millerton, NY. Millerton Antiques Center<\/a> is a miniature flea market, set up with lots of nooks full of wonderful (and affordable) treasures. Your weekend away wouldn\u2019t be complete without a pop into The MovieHouse<\/a> on Main Street for art house films, classics and new releases\u2014it\u2019s Meryl Streep approved.<\/p>\n
