Food scene

Grab a scoop or a sundae at the renowned Sundae School. The sundae's come topped with a fresh cherry and homemade whipped cream. The staff is made of mostly college students from all of the country spending their summers working on the Cape. Don't worry if it looks busy when you arrive. The staff is extremely efficient. This location only takes cash and does have a cash machine available. Also, don't forget to bring a few quarters if you want to use the player piano inside. It's very fun for the entire family.

Skippers is busy for a reason they have wonderful seafood and a view of Nantucket Sound. We took our friends to the restaurant and after sampling about 20 chowders they said that this is their favorite! Save room for ice cream after dinner. Right outside of the front door skippers also serves delicious ice cream. You can take your ice cream across the street to the beach. Little ones can run off of the last of their energy by playing on the beach playground.

Located right on Route 28 around the corner from the cottage. It has beautiful outdoor dining with heaters for chilly Cape Cod nights. It is another contender for one of the best chowders.

Looking for one of the best lobster rolls on the Cape? Check out the Sesuit Harbor Cafe. Also, try the fish and chips, fried clams, and oysters. This is a cash only and BYOB place. Because it is on the harbor you can enjoy watching the boats while enjoying a wonderful meal.

One of my favorite things is to pick up Lobster from Andrea’s and eat it outside with family and friends. They also have really great stuffed cod and much more. Andrea’s was just ranked one of the best fish markets on the Cape and it’s right near the cottage.

Sightseeing

Grays beach has been recently voted one of the top beaches to watch the sunset. We happen to agree. Check out the board walk that takes you over the marsh to a relaxing seated area over the bay. If you happen to arrive before 4pm you will need a Yarmouth Beach Pass or pay $20 to park.

Are you a history buff? Interested in pirates? Fascinated by shipwrecks? The Whydah Pirate Museum is minutes away from the cottage. It is the perfect way to spend a rainy or sweltering day inside. The Whydah Pirate Museum house the largest collection of pirate artifacts recovered from a single shipwreck anywhere in the world. One of the last exhibits shows how artifacts brought back from years of being covered by the rough Cape Cod Sea. It is a working laboratory that shouldn't be missed.

Did you know that in 2022 that two Cape Cod Leaguers went in the top 10 of the MLB draft, including Brooks Lee a 2021 Yarmouth-Dennis Red Sox player. The Cape Cod league is the place to see future pro baseball stars. It's free to attend all games. Just bring a lawn chair, grab a seat in the stands or find a spot for a blanket and take in the one of the best activities on the Cape. Will you catch a foul ball from the next big star? All teams have concessions. I'm partial to the Captain Parker's Clam Chowder served at the Y-D Red Sox concessions stand. It doesn't get more Cape Cod. Games run from June until the first week of August.

A gem from the past on Route 6A. Kids of all ages love sampling the penny candy (maybe more in inflation).

Small but kid friendly Natural History Museum. Check out the path down to the bay that runs next to the museum.

Seal Watching and Food

Looking for a bite to eat? How about watching seals swim and play while enjoying an ice cream? I suggest parking at the top of the hill above the fishing pier and walking down the steep hill if you are able.

攜帶物品

Pack clothes to layer

Cape Cod can start off chilly and then become very warm in the afternoon and then cool down in the evening. Don't forget to pack a sweatshirt or jacket to keep warm.
攜帶物品

What to pack

- Beach Towels - All toiletries - Sunscreen - Swimsuits - Beach Chairs Don't worry if you forget anything the cottage is close to everything. There is a Dollar Tree and Dollar General very close to the cottage. This year we picked up the best unicorn floaty for my daughter at Dollar General - She loved floating around on the waves in local beach. Also, I try to put in a Target order when I'm enroute to the cottage. The Target is on Route 28 a couple of miles from the cottage. I generally order milk, bread, breakfast items, lunch items, snacks, and toiletries that I didn't bother packing.
