4th of July at The Elms
July 4 | 6 AM – 10 PM |Fireworks at Dusk
Spend Independence Day in a setting made for gathering, celebration, and summer memories. From sunrise swims to fireworks at dusk, The Elms invites guests to enjoy a full day of festive experiences across the resort.
Start the day at the pool, opening at 6:00 AM, then settle into an afternoon of poolside favorites, specialty barbecue offerings, refreshing cocktails, and relaxed summer vibes. Beginning at 11:00 AM, the Café transforms into a seasonal gathering spot serving snow cones, flatbreads, churros, popcorn, beverages, and more throughout the day.
As evening arrives, guests are invited to the North Lawn for music, cocktails, and one of the area's most anticipated fireworks displays. Additional bars will be available throughout the celebration, creating the perfect atmosphere to gather with friends and family beneath the summer sky.
When the fireworks conclude, the celebration continues as hotel guests return to the pool for an evening swim and a memorable close to Independence Day.
