any good ideas for a family of 7?
dont even mind lounging at a nice pool in the hotel and would be nice to have a suite
2 nights and 3 days would be the max.
they have UR and MR to use at a hotel..
kosher food nearby is a plus

im doing Boston next week 8/24-8/26 family of 6. Flying them in on Avios, leaving a few hours before they fly and picking them up there. Plenty of Hotels and kosher food available. Using IHG at Indigo with outdoor pool. 
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

Lake George has some kosher food

Other options, without kosher food:  lake placid, can be combined with ferry to Burlington to visit Burlington / Stowe VT http://www.ferries.com/crossing-schedule-rates/burlington-to-port-kent-ferry
