Hi - the decorations will definitely have a good start on being up at that time, but may not be completely finished. I don't think everything is in full effect until just before/after Thanksgiving, you'll certainly see may of the decorations while you're there....have a wonderful time! We'll be there the first week of November, so I'm not holding out expectations of really seeing any Xmas decorations then, but I get to enjoy Food & Wine so that makes up for it!
