A Rising Tide Lifts All Boats

Comments Off on A Rising Tide Lifts All Boats

We were thrilled to learn that The Publick House in Sturbridge was renovating and expanding.  Charlton Furniture has been a part of this community for more than 40 years (a mere “baby” compared to the 245 years of Publick House) so we are honored to be a part of this exciting time for them.  Our delivery crew has been hard at work bringing in the beautiful new furniture for the recently renovated rooms.

If you are not familiar with The Publick House, here is a little bit about their history (from www.publickhouse.com)

The Publick House Historic Inn in Sturbridge, Massachusetts, where good food comes out of our Yankee ovens and warm hospitality greets every guest.

Ebenezer Crafts opened the Inn in 1771 as a gathering place for citizens of Sturbridge and weary travelers along the Boston Post Road. In 1923, the property was purchased as a boarding house for women and renamed The Elms. During the 1940's, then owner, Richard Paige, leased the property to the US Army as a post for soldiers en route for training. The Publick House, during this time, moved across the common to a large white house. Not one day has been missed in providing good hospitality in over 230 years.

Since 1771, Publick House Inn has been the lodging and dining hub for esteemed visitors, from George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and General Lafayette to present day travelers, such as actors Bill Murray, Susan St. James and John Travolta. Today, the old world spirit continues welcoming guests with open hearths and Yankee hospitality. The dining room features an indulging array of duck, lamb, lobster, and other specialty meat and seafood dishes, including a traditional Thanksgiving fare available all year long.

Listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
