Winners Announced! May 7th, 2016
|
The winner of this year's photo contest is.... (Drumroll please)...
JESSICA in QUEENSTOWN, NEW ZEALAND We asked for far flung, obscure and/or simply amazing location and after going through the 2016 entries (many times) the Woods Hole Inn staff had finally come to a decision. We felt Jessica's picture on top of the Double Cone in the Remarkables Mountain Range in Queenstown, New Zealand was worthy of the 2016 winning title and a free two night stay here at the Woods Hole Inn!* With so many amazing entries this year it was hard to choose just one winner, so we decided to pick two more! Staff choice runner-up prize goes to Jan and Claire at Disney's Animal Kingdom in Orlando, Florida. People's choice runner-up prize goes to Brittany on Isla Saona in the Dominican Republic. Both Runner-up winners will receive a $100 gift certificate to the Woods Hole Inn. Now for the voting results: We received just shy of 1,500 votes for this contest and the winner, with roughly 40% of the vote is... ERIN at the ZION NATIONAL PARK, UTAH The people have spoken and chose Erin to win a free night at the Woods Hole Inn, plus a $50 gift certificate to either one of our farm-to-table restaurants, the Quicks Hole Tavern or Quicks Hole Taqueria.* Congrats to the winners! Thanks to all for participating...we had as much fun as you did, following your travels all over the globe. The voting for the 2016 contest is now closed. All entries received post April 1, 2016 will be part of the 2017 Photo Contest! * Some restrictions apply: Based on availability, once booked all cancellation policies apply, must be used before April 2017, all other Woods Hole Inn policies apply, see website for details.
