The Lodge at Simpsonwood

I’ve been coming to Simpsonwood Conference Center every year since 1997. We have a Regional Conference here.
It’s changed a lot since those days. Back then, there would be fresh spiced apple cider brewing in the lobby, a well-​kept fire in the fireplace, a fresh cut Christmas tree decorated (we come in the winter), real coffee, and fresh baked cookies. They’ve slowly gotten rid of all of those things…
Now, there’s a small fake Christmas tree, and coffee that just comes out of a machine (like a fountain drink). No cookies, no aromas of cider, no nothing…
The food has also gone downhill. They used to have a Sunday morning brunch with made to order omelets and a carving station, and a seafood Friday dinner. but of course, those are gone as well with the economy.
The rooms are nice; they have some rooms with a loft for families. And they have newer buildings and rooms.
So unfortunately, we still have to go there, but we’ve lowered our expectations through the years. :(
