CMV Entertainment Venue

(To our motel guests: Our music room is located on the far side of a separate building (our restaurant and tavern building) which is across the parking area and well away from our guest rooms.  Motel guests also receive free admission to most shows.)

For your enjoyment, Friday nights are when the CMV really rocks.  We consistently book the best bands from all over New England and since adding the new concert room in 2007, we have become the premier music venue in the North Country.  Your CMV music experience is enhanced by the fact that you not only get the best live music, you get great food and drinks and you even have a place to stay - all at the CMV!
