ACCOMMODATIONS
Accommodations in Lunenburg can be found in two hotels of moderate size (20-24 rooms), small intimate inns, bed and breakfast establishments and a few small motels. There are enough accommodations in Lunenburg to hold everyone from the CCA who plans to attend the 2023 CCA Fall Meeting. Lunenburg is a tourist town that remains very popular into mid-October. Some establishments have received bookings already. Anyone attending is encouraged to book their accommodations early to be sure they get the room of their choice.
Our list of accommodations gives you contact information and a link to the respective website. Check the websites of each establishment to see photos of their rooms. Without exception you will get your best price by booking with the establishment directly rather than using an online agency such as Expedia, Booking.com, etc. Like most communities these days, Lunenburg offers accommodations through Airbnb, VRBO and similar online groups.
In September parking in downtown Lunenburg can be tight and few establishments have dedicated parking spots, although they will provide advice on where to leave a car.
There are excellent restaurants in Lunenburg serving breakfast for those who do not have breakfast included with their room. Information on these restaurants will be provided when you arrive.
