Beautiful atmosphere. This resort was recently completely renovated and now has a rooftop bar and table area looking over the ocean. Ideally located within an extremely short walking distance to the house. The menu is limited and pricier but the ambiance is everything. Place is busy and books up quickly. Dressier establishment. Reservations recommended (make early our prior to trip to ensure you are able to get rooftop seating; must ask specifically for rooftop seating upon calling to make reservation). There are fire pits (note the fire pits do NOT have a dedicated waitstaff, must order drinks yourself from the bar) on the main floor outside on the deck over looking the ocean. When approaching the resort, enter into the left building and go to top floor for rooftop area. Fire pits are main floor in building to the left, as well.

Open year round. The food is excellent and the cocktails are delicious. Try the pineapple infused martini and their sweet potato waffle fries appetizer. We also love their Empathy wine selection (one of very few places in the country which carries this wine). We like the bar area to the right when you walk in, however for groups or family the left may be more appropriate.

Kream 'n Kone
961 Main StLocal favorite. If you are a lover of fried seafood, this is a must!
Great views of the boat dock and water, casual food, great local fresh seafood, outdoor dining with a lawn with Adirondack chairs. Note: parking is very limited (also it is hard to see thee sign from the road) thus we strongly suggest getting dropped off via Uber/ride share. Limited menu but the fresh lobster and steamed oyster dinner plate is amazing. Limited seating, gets busy quickly. We recommend going during non-peak hours.

Cape Cod Rail Trail – It All Starts in Dennis.
The Cape Cod Rail Trail follows a former railroad right-of-way for 22 miles through the towns of Dennis, Harwich, Brewster, Orleans, Eastham and Wellfleet. Its paved surface, few hills, and well-marked automobile crossings make it ideal for cyclists. The trail has a wide unpaved shoulder on one side to accommodate horseback riding, walkers, and runners.

Best fresh baked goodies around. This is a well know local FAVORITE. Is an extremely short walk. Note: this place gets lines around the block, go extremely early or expect to wait in line. For bakery orders of a dozen or more, options to order the night before online to have ready via website, we recommend this. Note: you will see patrons cars parked along the main road, this is not allowed and you may be ticketed. Short walk, so we suggest walking. No sidewalks and often you have to walk alongside parked cars on a main road, please keep this in mind and be safe. Limited hours and not open until peak season. They’re seasonal and closed down earlier in the season than other local seasonal spots.
