Some first-time visitors to Cape Cod are amazed to discover that the peninsula/island is a lot more than just a sand-dune, and that in fact Cape Cod is 65 miles long, has 15 separate towns and an area of almost 400 square miles. Any English visitor here (as we were, at one time) will recognise town names, but will notice, sometimes, a slight change in spelling from the original namesake in the old country. So we’d like to explain how and where some of the town names came from, back in 17th century New England.

The Yarmouth Port Botanical Trail
June 20th, 2008 by cassels
A number of our guests at the inn have enjoyed hiking the Botanical Trails that begins behind the Post Office. At the beginning of the trail you can find a trail map, but please make a donation (50 cents for adults, 25 cents for children is suggested).
There’s a small garden and a 150-year-old weeping beech tree along the way. You can take the main trail for a mile or the Millers pond trail which adds about a half-mile. Both are a pleasant, gentle walk especially on a summer’s morning. There is plenty to see for bird spotters and nature lovers.
