The Auburn Colony is for the vacationer who wants to tap into the history and traditions of colony life. The property boasts wonderful water views, shared facilities, including a beautiful outdoor pool, recreation hall, play area for children, beach access for kayaking, and a clay tennis court. The Auburn Colony also shares The Grand Dining Hall on the with cottage owners, guests, and renters, which in the past has served dinner, where a dress code was still maintained. Sadly, things changed in 2020, and it has not been functioning in the same manner. It is now coming back to life with celebrated events, uniquely themed dinners, cocktail parties, lobster/clam bakes, etc. Maybe one day, the Dining Hall will run as it used to, as it's an impressive building offering its' own history lesson to all who enter !
