Plan your Family Summer Getaway to Westport

The days are getting longer and the school year is getting shorter. I can’t wait for summer and the opportunity to spend some extra time with my family relaxing and playing at the beach. The clam tides have been steady this spring and what was just a sleepy little town all winter is waking up now as tourists arrive for their weekend fix. My friends have started calling and asking for suggestions. “What should we do? Where should we stay? Can we borrow your clam guns?” is the common refrain.

As with most vacations, I suggest starting with securing

lodging. And, for families that want to be close to the action, but also have some space to roam and some peace and quiet, too, I suggest Chateau Westport. Just outside the main bustle of town, Chateau Westport offers what most people seek – clean, comfortable rooms with kitchenttes or full suites, pet-friendly lodging options, a pool, a beach-front location, a fire pit for s’mores and space to run on grassy lawns and through wooded nooks. And – affordable rates.

Chateau Westport is a great launching pad for all the fun of a beach vacation in Westport.  A quick check of the Chamber of Commerce website shows an updated events list. My kids are looking forward to Pirate Daze in June. My dad is coming out for the Kite Festival that month as well. There’s both a street rod show and a jet ski competition my older sons are looking forward to.  Read more here:  http://www.graysharbortalk.com/2017/06/07/plan-your-family-summer-getaway-to-westport/
