You won’t have to think up things to do with the kids when you stay at the Hotel 1620 Plymouth Harbor. Plymouth will take care of that for you.

Drive to one of several beaches or to Plimoth Patuxet Museums, where the kids can muster with Myles Standish or use clam shells to help scrape out a dugout canoe. See how corn was ground at the Plimoth Grist Mill or, at the Pilgrim Hall Museum, sit in a Great Chair like that used by Governor Bradford. Back at the hotel, enjoy time with the kids at the newly-renovated indoor pool and Mayflower Landing Splash Pad or relax in the new extra-large hot tub.
