MEMBER MATTERS MAKING THE MOST OF YOUR COAST TO COAST MEMBERSHIP New Coast Deluxe Resort – Quinebaug Cove Resort In Massachusetts Coast is pleased to welcome Quinebaug Cove Resort as the newest Deluxe resort in the Coast network. Locat- ed just four miles west of Sturbridge, Massachusetts, the easy access to historic Old Sturbridge Village and the quaint shops and restaurants of this charming town make this resort the perfect location for lovers of American history. In addition, there are endless day- trip possibilities from the resort with the Berkshires and the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge 70 miles to the west and Boston 60 miles to the east. Both are accessible via I-90. But with the amenities at Quinebaug Cove Camp- ground, you may never want to leave the resort. There is beachfront access including a boat launch on 420- acre East Brimfield Lake, where you can fish for bass, trout, pickerel, and northern pike. If you like to kayak or canoe, you are in for a real treat. East Brimfield Lake
is the part of the Quinebaug River Canoe Trail, which provides a scenic 4.6-mile paddle from East Brimfield Lake down the Quinebaug River to Holland Pond. Pack a picnic because there are picnic areas for specific use of those paddling the canoe trail. And if hiking or bik- ing is your thing, enjoy the Brimfield Rail Trail which is a 2.8 mile completed section of a the proposed 60-mile Titanic (Grand Trunk) Trail, a Rails-to-Trails project. You can access the trail right across the road from the campground. Amenities on the resort include a pool, horseshoes, shuffleboard, basketball, volleyball, playground, and a band stand with entertainment in-season. There are three bath houses on the property, one that is brand new this year, one that has just been renovated to include a laundry facility, and a third that is being renovated this year. The spacious clubhouse includes a snack bar, arcade game room, a warm fireplace to en- joy on cool evenings, and a camp store featuring movie rentals and hand-dipped ice cream. And then there’s the amenity you can’t see but may appreciate the most: the campground’s underground infrastructure has been completely redone to provide 30-amp and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer hook-ups to all sites as well as Wi-Fi that works through the park.
