What travelers are saying
- mainstreetmanBourne, MA747 contributionsStunningly, beautiful beach. Great for the family. You’ll find plenty of seashells, polish stones, and soft silky sand. Look for colorful sales of the wind surface gliding across the water. It’s a $30 parking fee for non-residence. Make sure you bring cash.Written April 13, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- RandyRossRidgetown, Canada11,776 contributionsOriginally built of wood in 1874, the current stone tower was built in 1900. It gives a great view of Scargo Lake below and a lot of the Cape Cod Peninsula.
It is a very easy climb to the top and worth the minor effort it takes. While this is not a destination, it is worth a stop if you are nearby.Written December 27, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Outside there are whimsical pottery castles and other pieces tucked away in trees and and tree stumps.Inside you can see modern pieces , dinnerware and one of a kind wonders of pottery. Usually, someone is working at the potters wheel :):)

They had picnic tables, a snack shop and very clean facilities to use. The beach itself looked nice and comfortable for a day by the water. Pretty homes all around with also a nice parking lot.Written September 6, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Mike BFalmouth, MA673 contributionsWonderful small museum with beautiful and interesting exhibits.

- Erika-MotoAdventuresLowell, MA7 contributionsI came here a few times with my husband and his family. We were staying in Dennis for Fourth of July week and this was one of two beaches we frequented (the other being Mayflower Beach). The parking lot is fairly small and there are no restrooms or other amenities, but it's a nice beach if you like smaller beaches. We went in the evenings to enjoy the sunset and look for sea life. We found a variety of clams, including a live razor clam, two moon snails, hermit crabs, and what can only be described as a small army of leopard-spotted crabs in the knee-deep water. Sunset/dusk seems to be the time all the animals come out. If you like looking for sea life, this is the beach to go to.Written July 12, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Johnny P1 contributionLovely beach but for residents of Dennis only. For public beaches, head to Corporation. In order to reduce overcrowding, the Church parking lot is closed. The other half of the beach, sea street, is open to the public but there is often a line because it is a small lot so get there early.Written June 29, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- John S3 contributionsSpent the day on Swan Pond kayaking and canoeing. We had a nice time covering most of the pond and we made a couple of stops along the way - relaxing on the sand bars and Big Island. After we paddled to Clancy's Restaurant and had a late lunch and cocktails on the deck overlooking the pond. The kids ordered Nachos. Will try and make this a annual event when we visit the Cape.Written July 15, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Lots of parking and has a measured mile for walkers.Written April 21, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Capecodder444Massachusetts29 contributionsA real farm tucked off a dirt drive with a net enclosed field of blueberry bushes.This is a treasured Late July activity for me and my family who have been coming for over 20 years. Check their website for the mornings that are available to pick your own blueberries. No need to bring anything, they supply the containers. And if you don’t like crowds , come an hour later to avoid the early rush. Does my take long to fill up the cardboard baskets. New price of $4.50 . Great for all ages because these are the high bush variety. Owners are lovely, gentle farmers. This is a Cape Cod gem.Written July 24, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Northeast Mom, CTConnecticut133 contributionsBeach on Nantucket Sound. We were here at low tide on a weekday afternoon. It was fairly crowded at first but started emptying out, giving us a better appreciation of its beauty. There is quite a bit of seaweed in the water. It's a sandy beach with lots of shells.Written July 30, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
