Come Join the Fun!
For our 25th Anniversary Entlefest and National Specialty, from July 27-30th, we are busy planning fun, fascinating and fabulous activities (mostly fun!) for you and your Entlebucher in beautiful, coastal Rhode Island.
We will have a CEBA evaluation, beach romps, picnics, Dinner With Your Dog, Newport mansions and the famous oceanfront "Cliff Walk", our often hilarious NEMDA auction, our Annual General Meeting, our National Specialty, a delicious banquet, and lots more. Come meet old friends and make new ones!
We have, to quote Jodie Cutter, “an absolutely gorgeous hotel” where our Entles are welcome and we get to be pampered with every amenity at a reduced price! Here is a link to our wonderful host hotel:
Crown Plaza Providence-Warwick
Location: Warwick, RI 02886. Map
The discounted rates are $159 for Wednesday and Thursday and $189 for Friday and Saturday.
When you click on the link you will see the rate quoted as $174. This is because the hotel averages the rates over four days. You will actually only pay the very favorable group rates that I quoted above.
Please Reserve Now!
This special rate will be only offered for up to 60 days before our event. After that, summer pricing will apply.
IMPORTANT: the guest room block will only be held until Monday, May 29, 2023. So please don't delay!
Click Here to select your room or call (401) 732-6000 and please mention "National Entlebucher Mountain Dog Association" for a discount. Code: NEM. You may specify King or 2 Queens and non-smoking, but the hotel cannot guarantee your selection.

Whispering Pines Campground
Please contact them directly for reservations.
