Where does one stay when spending the weekend in a town of 600-some residents? At a luxurious bed, breakfast, and winery, of course!

Welcome to the charming Claremont Inn & Winery: a stunning home with gorgeous rooms, gourmet meals, and excellent wine tastings.

In addition to it being a bed and breakfast and winery, the Claremont Inn also hosts cooking classes, murder mysteries, escape rooms, and other on-site activities that you don’t want to miss.

While you can always relax and spend the entire weekend at the Claremont (and who can blame you?), there is more to see and do around the Plains, like visiting the Old Town Museum, Kit Carson County Carousel, and various shops in nearby Burlington.

It isn’t just Burlington that has new things to see and do; in fact, Stratton is also a short drive from the Limon Heritage Museum (Limon), Beecher Island Battleground (Wray), and Mount Sunflower (Wallas County, Kansas).

Need we mention that the Eastern Plains are wide open and just plain enjoyable to drive?
