Guestroom News
Lawnfield had its busiest summer so far. Thanks to all of you who stayed with us or referred us to family and friends these past few months.

Wireless Internet access is now up and running in our lobby, parlor, and poolside. All hotel guests are welcome to use this complimentary service. Come relax in the lobby with a drink from our honor bar and check out your e-mails!

Our pool stays open later than most. Based on the weather, we continue to keep it open until mid to late October. Come on over for a swim!


Staff News
Employee of the Quarter:
Nevenka Tunjic, Housekeeping. "She has been an outstanding housekeeper who takes genuine pride in her work. She is always willing to help others, & is never absent" states Gina Matthews front desk Manager. Nevenka has been at Lawnfield for four years. We are very fortunate to have such a loyal and deserving employee. Congratulations Nevenka!

Summer Staff Back to School: We are sorry to see Chase Petzinger & Lindsay Kneen leave us, but it's back to school time. These two part-time high school students really worked hard this summer and added their own particular style and personality which our guests and staff enjoyed. Good Luck to you both during your senior year.
Did you know?
Did you know that many families have come to stay and celebrate the holidays right here at the hotel? According to one guest "we live just down the street, but none of us want to feel put out so it is really nice to have our own little party away from home. We open our gifts around the tree, have some drinks and spend time playing with the kids rather than feeling we need to pick up our house or cook". Our lobby and parlor, warmed by fireplaces, are festooned with seasonal decorations including a miniature doll house, Lionel toy train and a beautiful Christmas tree as the focal point make Lawnfield Inn the perfect place to relax and appreciate all the joys the season has to offer. Our web site provides pictures of the hotel during the season as well as a discount coupon for your stay.

Now taking reservations for your holiday parties! Stop in to see us and let us help you plan that special evening.

Our New Year's Eve package is also available on our web site. Plan early this year!
