This news from the feisty Historic Inns of Rockland was just too fun not to share. Check out this group of innkeeper's answers to health care reform. When it comes the public vs. private debate over health care reform, the conversation at the four Historic Inns of Rockland, ME revolves around whether to have the massage ensuite or in the spa. Along with their senator, Olympia Snowe, this feisty group of four historically preserved inns is not afraid to cross party lines and has their own idea for a prescription drug plan simplified into two tiers – red or white. Wellness coverage here includes complimentary anti-oxidant chocolates and blueberry juice, pie or pancakes.
Best of all, affordability is assured; a cost-cutting measure is included with 10 percent off all rooms (built into the package) along with spa treatments at RHeal Wellness Center and Day Spa. Stress-relief toys even come free. It’s all tongue in cheek, but it measures up to one great relaxing weekend geared toward wellness, stress relief and a form of health care reform that promises to be passed by all those participating. The promise: no one will be denied; all pre-existing conditions will be accepted, and affordability is guaranteed; with four inns, you’re sure to find one that fits your budget and all wellness criteria.
