Cape Cod is a world-class resort area. For those who come to relax, a walk on the National Sea Shore to see the dunes and beach as they have been since the beginning of time and breathing the soft salt air is therapeutic.

Birdwatching is excellent along the entire eastern shore, and the Audubon Sanctuary in nearby Wellfleet offers superb birdwatching opportunities.

The nearby towns of Provincetown, Chatham, Hyannis and Orleans have their special characteristics and offer antique and artisans shops, art galleries, and museums.

For the sports minded there is fishing, as well as 27 public golf courses and extensive bike paths. The Cape Rail Trail is easily accessed from the hotel parking lot.

Wellfleet, located just north from Eastham, hosts its well-known annual Oyster Fest on the same weekend.

There are numerous possibilities for those who wish to extend their stay. In addition to Cape areas and Plymouth, a trip to Nantucket or Martha's Vineyard is a breathtaking experience.
