Greetings Inngoers Reader,
An even 100 new inns joined Bed & Breakfast Inns ONLINE last month -- that's really a tribute to you, our BBOnline visitors and fans. The savviest innkeepers know that BBOnline gets the traffic, and gives the service, and that's why they join up.
From hot and muggy Middle Tennessee, it certainly looks and feels as if summer's in full swing. Therefore, this month's Inngoers takes us to Shoreline Inns, Kid Friendly B&Bs, and Outdoor Adventure Specials, with Fruit Desserts to top it off.
Pass the sunscreen, and peel me a grape . . .

P.S. If you know someone who would enjoy Inngoers, please feel free to forward this issue to a friend.

Where do you head when the heat is on? If you're like us, the lake, the swimming hole, the beach, or as New Jerseyans might put it, down-the-shore.
Want to check out a coastline gem for your next getaway? Look no further than our section devoted to Inns Located on the Shoreline. Here are some examples:

| Kid Friendly Bed & Breakfasts |
|
Here's a wonderful resource for summer family travel: BBOnline's directory of Kid Friendly Inns. Lots of our member innkeepers - more than 750 at press time - are pleased to welcome families traveling with well- behaved children.
Reading through the listings, we find innkeepers that offer games, toys and videos for their youngest guests, and others who are especially knowledgeable about local attractions and activities for kids.
Some inns set aside a specific room, suite or cottage for families, some have a surcharge for each child, and some set age restrictions. Please remember to verify the details with the innkeeper when you make your reservation.
Follow the link to browse our state-by-state directory, plan a family getaway and remember to tell the innkeeper you found them at Bed & Breakfast Inns ONLINE!
