Steps from a private beach on Cape Cod Bay stands a spectacular, five bedroom house.
A few miles away is the National Park Service's 'Seashore Visitor's Center' with a history museum and nature exhibits, as well as information about ocean beaches, canoe trips, and other family activities. Eastham is also 30 minutes from Hyannis where one can get on a ferry to Martha's Vineyard or Nantucket, and from Provincetown where one can go whale watching. Recreational opportunities include biking on a rail trail, retracing Henry David Thoreau's footsteps, as well as golfing and tennis at nearby facilities. Or, you can just stay home and enjoy walking and swimming on what has been called 'the best family beach on the Cape'.
Steps from a private beach on Cape Cod Bay, and on a bluff overlooking an ever changing 200 acre tidal marsh, stands Cod Peace - a spectacular, nearly new, one-of-a-kind, five bedroom contemporary rental residence. Next summer, spring, or fall, you and your family, possibly with one or two other families, could enjoy this magical vacation location. This Eastham, Massachusetts, residence is one block away from First Encounter Beach. Eastham, a quaint New England township established 350 years ago, is today known as the 'Gateway to the National Seashore.' The National Seashore Visitor's Center, located in Eastham, includes the Cape Cod history museum, as well as information about unspoiled miles of ocean shoreline and acres of beaches. Park Rangers offer guided canoe trips, interpretive walks, and ocean campfires under the stars.
Eastham is a rural area, reflecting 'old Cape Cod.' Hyannis, however, is just a short ride south where one can get on a ferry to Martha's Vineyard or Nantucket, and Provincetown is just a short ride north where one can go whale watching and deep sea fishing. Eastham's hospitality includes dining at seafood restaurants, biking on Cape Cod's extensive rail trail, hiking through the Audubon Sanctuary's 1000 acres, swimming in fresh water ponds, retracing Henry David Thoreau's footsteps on Coast Guard Beach, as well as golfing and tennis at nearby facilities. You can also 'just stay home' and enjoy a stretch of sand known as the best family beach on Cape Cod Bay. That's because the water is clear and warm with no undertow or sudden drop offs. And at low tide, families can walk out into the bay on clean sand for more then a mile. Do come and discover for yourself whey the New York Times has called Eastham 'Cape Cod's little secret.'
