Every detail was planned to the T and I really appreciate that. This was the first time I could actually immerse myself in an event like this, because I knew everything was taken care of. Joe was a tremendous help! He was always available and would jump right in whenever we needed anything. The women at the desk were also very helpful and when we needed a last minute break out space, they figured it out immediately. Thank you all so much for making this such a seamless event for us. The food was also a huge hit. The staff was just amazing. The hard work you all put in did not go unnoticed.

Wow. Just...wow. Just absolutely wonderfully perfectly wow. There has never been a better weekend in the history of the planet...absolutely every single thing was perfect. The rooms were fabulous, and Joe and John and Kenny were on the spot and attentive and smart and endlessly helpful. In the kitchen, Chef is always a star, people were gasping with delight about the food, I mean—gasping! And [the] crew were wonderful and helpful and truly, beyond responsive to some of the guests' incredibly specific requests...it was wonderful in every way, and truly unforgettable. Everyone was so generous and so thoughtful, and we cannot thank you enough...We do know some of the attendees came from your mailings, so that's wonderful. Again, my endless thanks. You are all rock stars, and it was beyond our wildest dreams wonderful.

Went here for a work function. The staff were friendly. The cocktail hour was held in a rustic lodge room which had an interesting feel. The dining room was beautifully decorated. Unbelievable experience! A great place to bring a team together!

Everything went excellent! The facility was perfect and the staff was great. 5 star review! I am so glad we had it at the Endicott house – brought back memories of when we used to have our summer outings there years ago eating in the gun room and the kiddos swimming in the pool – I don’t think the conference facility was even built back then. Everyone I spoke with so far had rave reviews as well. We will definitely keep you in mind for future meetings.

Thank you and the entire staff for the great setup and service today; everyone really enjoyed themselves and the food was great! Thank you so much for all of your help!

- Merck Oncology Team

Thank you. We were extremely pleased with everything, and hope to have future events there. I’ve had to plan quite a few retreats in the past, and I’d say this was by the far the best one.

I have had the opportunity to work with the staff at the MIT Endicott House for decades, as a business manager, as a management consultant and as a professor, and my events have always been perfectly managed. From our multi-day boot camps of 40 attendees to my most recent experience of hosting one of our quarterly strategy planning meetings for seven senior managers, the care and adaptability of the staff has always exceeded my expectations. From the food to the IT requirements to all of those special nuances that define success, the uniqueness of the MIT Endicott House will always be our first choice for meetings!

CEO, Derby Management

We had a great time at the Endicott House. It was a really nice change of pace and my team loved it both inside and out. The room was perfect, AV worked seamlessly, and the snacks were just right. We all enjoyed lunch on the Veranda and the opportunity to play a little cornhole made for a good work/play balance. We definitely will be back in the future.
