All I had to do was spend a “free” night at a new hotel in western Massachusetts then I’d get roundtrip tickets and a three-night stay in San Diego. It sounded like a no brainer to me!

In 2017, the United States travel and tourism industry generated over $1.6 trillion and supported over 78 million jobs across the country. The Department of Commerce predicts that over 95.5 million international visitors will visit the U.S. annually by 2023, which is nearly twice the number of visitors in 2000. Of the $1.7 trillion spent on travel in the U.S. in 2017, approximately $300 billion was spent on accommodations. With the increase in international travel to the United States, there will be more jobs available in the hospitality and tourism industry, especially in the resort industry.

With an abundance of online booking website and apps, it’s easy to find a deal on your next hotel stay. But, are you really getting the best deal? Price is often the sole decision for choosing one hotel over another for many travelers. For many years, online booking websites like Priceline and Expedia have been the go-to booking site for the cheapest hotel rates across the globe. But they aren’t all they are cracked up to be. 

The temperatures are quickly dropping, and you know what that means – the snow guns are turning on! We’ve already had a few dustings, and soon enough those flurries will turn into inches of fresh powder begging to be enjoyed.

It’s been a busy Fall at the RiverWalk Resort. With the leaves at peak color and the snow guns waiting for the perfect temperature, thousands of people were flocking to Lincoln to discover everything the resort and the Western White Mountains has to offer.

The history of ice skating is a bit murky, but many people believe that it originated in the Scandinavian countries over 5,000 years ago, which would make sense because those countries have some pretty good hockey players! Based on old drawings in literature, some believe that it may even date back to the Middle Ages.
