Wake Robin Inn — Hotel in Salisbury

This past weekend we hosted a wedding for our daughter and her fiance, who live in Boston. We live locally and she said she could not think of anywhere she would rather have her wedding than at the Wake Robin Inn. It was the perfect weekend. From the beginning planning stages Shaffin worked closely with us to make every detail perfect. He recommended vendors who were spot on, like Classical Tents in Pittsfield, MA, and Rita Welch Catering in Sheffield, MA. He made suggestions for rooms, based on each family's needs, and continued to work closely with the Bride and Groom to make sure no detail, no matter how small, was addressed.

Unlike other weddings we have attended, we had total control of the weekend. We were the only guests at the Inn which made it easy to spread out while allowing the children to wander the grounds and play without worry. Also, unlike other venues, there is no template for how your event happens. You can create the wedding you want without worrying that time is up or that you have to move things along for the next group, since there is no "next group" following later that day. We felt like family the whole time we were there.

On Friday, after the rehearsal dinner we all gathered at the Inn for desert and drinks. People wandered around, getting acquainted, and had a fun evening. After the wedding on Saturday we ended the day on the back deck, enjoying drinks and a bonfire. There are plenty of comfortable seats tucked everywhere where you can gather and visit with family and friends, from the large front porch to the back deck, seating is plentiful and comfortable. Breakfast, which was plentiful, was in a lovely room off the parlor and you could eat there or take your food to be enjoyed on the back deck if you chose.

The Wake Robin is a charming, well kept, building, built in 1899. The rooms are all lovely and each is decorated a bit differently. The housekeepers kept everything spotless and provided service with a smile. In fact, everyone went out of their way to be helpful. No request, no matter how small, went unanswered. So many came to us to commented about what a perfect weekend it was and how lovely the Inn is. We couldn't agree more. All I can say is that we were all sorry to...

Our family had the pleasure of spending a weekend at the Wake Robin to celebrate my niece's wedding. The Inn was the perfect venue to enjoy such a wonderful event. The rooms are well appointed, bed extremely comfortable and had everything one would need for a great rest. The Inn is a located in a beautiful, tranquil setting that has many outdoor seating areas, including a gorgeous front porch and rear deck that are perfect for intimate or group gatherings. The small pub and sitting rooms inside are cozy and welcoming. There are even a few cozy nooks to just sit and read a book if you choose. The owners of the Inn and their incredible staff could not have been more helpful and attentive. There was always a warm greeting and offers of snacks, coffee or helpful local information. They truly understand the meaning of hospitality!

The Wake Robin Inn is the perfect place for an event or a quiet stay away from our hectic lives. It's charming and peaceful and has everything one needs to leave feeling refreshed and ready to face the real world again. Thank you Shaffin for helping to give my niece and our family a...

Although we only stayed one night, we had a wonderful stay at the Wake Robin Inn. The facility (and neighborhood) is (are) historically rich and very well maintained. Michael and his team run a very friendly, professional, and customer friendly operation. From the welcome when we arrived to our departure the following morning, it seems Michael went out of he way to go the extra mile. He even got into his car and drove around the block so he could block traffic allowing us to get out of the driveway with a very long car trailer. This inn is very close to Lime Rock Park racetrack making it a convenient overnight location. The honor bar in the evening and the breakfast buffet tended by our host in the morning made us feel at home. Thank you Michael (and team) for a...
