“It was nice to return to Chautauqua after having sold our condo. I had always admired the Anthenaeum but hadn’t stayed there until this trip. Our room was gorgeous and had a beautiful view of the lake.”

“The veranda: everyone was so convivial. We were able to plan the rest of our week based on the recommendations of the staff and others guests. We heard so many stories of high school romances begun at Chautauqua that became life long marriages.”
