Testimonials

 

Training's requires not only process but in addition a setting that supports the learning experience. The Essex Conference Center is perhaps the most ideal setting anywhere for programs that we have been part of. I have learned more and had greater insights into my work during our programs at Essex, than any other time in my career. There is something about the Center that functions like a magical place that helps us accomplish all of our goals. I love it!

As you well know, program effectiveness, like performance is a function of both the individuals involved as well as the environment. While you do not control the first half of the equation, the Center and it’s staff does an outstanding job with the second half. DAKA executives and managers who have departed Essex have independently given me glowing comments about all aspects of the facility and their accomplishments during their meetings. We have a real winning location and ‘training sanctuary’ at the Essex Conference Center. It will be our ‘home’ for all of our off-site meetings in the future.
— DAKA International
Thank you for helping to make our program at the Center a success. We were very pleased with everything you provided especially the sumptuous and
abundant lunch.

As an environmental education and research center, we chose ECCR for their commitment to run a sustainable, environmentally friendly business. Our visit to ECCR went beyond our highest expectations by offering a relaxed wooded setting, plenty of choices for our myriad dietary considerations, and an atmosphere that allowed us to work effectively and efficiently. We have recommended ECCR to other departments at our university and will continue to do so in the future.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Essex Conference Center, even in January when the temperature dipped below zero! The warmth of the staff, the well-prepared nutritious food, and the comfortable ambiance of our meeting room (and the facilities in general) all contributed to our experience of retreat and reflection.
— Center for Teacher Formation
The Essex Conference Center is an ideal location for building relationships and clear communication. The place seems to have a spirit that promotes good dialogue. It worked so well for us it will be hard not to come back.

Last week I facilitated a program for Harvard Magazine at the Center. I was completely impressed with the facility and with the staff. My expectations were far exceeded by their personal care and attentiveness. Thank you for creating such a perfect corporate retreat center which I plan on using in the future.

Please extend our thanks to your staff at Essex - they did a great job. The meal service was even better than promised. I could go and on with the list of how well things worked out, but will limit it to saying we would not have changed a thing. We consider ourselves so fortunate to have found the Center. We look forward to a long and lasting relationship. Thanks again.

On behalf of the New England Aquarium I thank you for your kindness and generosity. This years Youth Summit was a success and the setting and resources of the Center deserve much credit for it. The Center was just what was needed to get 30 teenagers to open up and share with one another. The staff was amazing.
