Wylie Inn and Conference Center at Endicott College

The Wylie Inn and Conference Center at Endicott College draws groups to a tranquil stretch of Boston's North Shore outside the little college town of Beverly, Massachusetts. Along with the picturesque beauty of coastal New England, guests enjoy direct access to the beach from ten acres of meticulously landscaped property.

For planners, the main attractions start with 92 business-friendly guest rooms, the 1900s-era Tupper Manor, and the Wylie Conference Center, 17,500 square feet of IACC-certified meeting rooms for groups of up to 115. Productivity can't help but flourish in the face of ergonomic seating, natural light, the latest in audiovisuals and Internet technology—and refreshment kiosks replenished throughout the day. Further attractions include expert catering, a friendly cafe and bar, a fitness center, and excursions to nearby historic Salem and scenic Cape Ann.
