Come to enchanting Essex - soak up the atmosphere, enjoy the scenery and…RELAX!

Experience the comfortable and convivial atmosphere of the 1776 'Gris' and enjoy an authentic journey back to the days of steam and Mississippi-style riverboats.

Located just one mile from the Inn, the Essex Steam Train & Riverboat offers passengers a way to experience the beauty of our area by land and by sea! The 2 1/2 hour excursion begins at the Essex station where you will board the Great Republic, an elegant 1920’s Parlor Car complete with beverage service and individual, plush swivel seats from which to take in the stunning scenery. The train transports passengers to the Becky Thatcher, a riverboat which travels up the Connecticut River to enjoy some of the most spectacular vistas in our area!
