			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Cape Cod rentals are one of the most popular places to stay on Cape Cod.  Whether it is a four-season home, cozy cottage, modern townhouse, or a traditional beach house, there is a rental that is right for you.  The Cape has thousands of high quality vacation rentals with room for 2 &#8211; 20 people.</p>
<p><strong>Square Footage<br />
</strong>Unlike the confines of a one-room motel, a Cape Cod rental gives you multiple rooms providing space for you and your family to spread out.  Elbow room and privacy can make a vacation that much more relaxing.  On the flip side, if you are vacationing with friends or extended family, the convenience of staying under one roof can help you maximize your time spent together.  Either way, the space a rental  home provides can’t be beat.</p>
<p><strong>Private Yard<br />
</strong>Many rental homes and cottages have at least something of a yard or outdoor space in which to play or relax during your down time.  You will want to enjoy every moment you can in the Cape’s relaxing salt air.  A private yard is great for children to run and play, have a cookout, or read a book.</p>
<p><strong>A Safe Place to Walk<br />
</strong>If you enjoy taking walks or going for a run while on vacation, a vacationrental will usually give you access to great roads on which to do so.  Most motels on the Cape are located on the main roads where it might be a little more difficult to enjoy a quiet, scenic walk or a safe run.  Many cottages are located on or near quieter side roads; and if you’re lucky one of those roads will take you right to the water.</p>
<p><strong>Meals<br />
</strong>Most cottage rentals come with fully equipped kitchens.  This is not only convenient for breakfast and preparing your lunch for the day, but it gives you the option of having dinner at home; which can be a great money saver.  This is especially convenient for families with young children or large groups who would rather pass on waiting for a table at a restaurant.</p>
<p><strong>Outside Shower<br />
</strong>Many Cape Cod cottages and homes have roomy and private outside showers which are perfect for washing off the sand and lotion from a day at the beach.  Many visitors who are hesitant to take a shower outside in the beginning of their trip are converts in no time.  There is something invigorating yet relaxing about showering under the Cape Cod sky.  A simple concept but something most of us don’t enjoy in our everyday lives.</p>
<p><strong>Wet Towels and Bathing Suits<br />
</strong>Wet, sandy bathing suits and towels can take over your motel room in no time. With your own cottage, you will have many more options to hang and dry your beach gear.  Your place may even be equipped with your own washer and dryer.</p>
<p><strong>Pets<br />
</strong>There are a respectable number of vacation rentals on Cape Cod that accept pets.  The extra space they provide are ideal for pets and owners alike.</p>
<p><strong>Beach Chairs, Beach Umbrellas, Beach Toys, and More<br />
</strong>Many cottage owners provide beach chairs, umbrellas, and blankets for your use. It is amazing how much space in your vehicle this could save.  Even if you decide to bring your own beach supplies, by staying in a rental you will have much more room to store it all than you would in a motel.</p>
<p><strong>Bike Parking<br />
</strong>Cape Cod has approximately 60 miles of dedicated biking trails; it is a very popular and highly recommended activity.  Although there are many bike rental places on the Cape, you may certainly want to bring your own.  With your own cottage rental, storing these bikes is easy and convenient.</p>
<p>The availability and the many advantages of Cape Cod cottages make renting a vacation home on the Cape a perfect option for many visitors.  Book yours today and have a fantastic vacation.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Drove to beautiful Cape Cod. The quickest was to the National Seashore is via route 6. For a more scenic one take 6A on the Northern rim or Route 28 on the Southern shore.<br />
Cape Cod is a left over from the glacial Ice Age 10,000 years ago. Since then the mighty North Atlantic Ocean has been reclaiming it at about three feet per year. Within 1,000 years, the only way to see the cape is with Scuba gear.</p>
<p>All roads lead to Provincetown. I do not know what they were giving away, but the streets were packed with people. Restaurants and stores with all types of merchandise abound.</p>
<p>Accommodations are available for any price range. The focal point of the town is the 252 feet tall Pilgrim Tower, which commemorates the Pilgrims land on Plymouth Rock. The museum at the base of the tower holds artifacts from the Mayflower and the original Plymouth Colony. Stairs lead to the top of the tower with magnificent views of the Cape and Provincetown.</p>
<p>Ate lunch at Truro Café on Pond Road in Truru. Their specialty is a lobster sandwich, which I had. The road leads to the Highland Beach Light house and museum. On the property is one of the oldest public golf courses in the United States. Also on the property is the Jenny Lind Tower. The story is told that P.T. Barnum oversold a concert in the 1850s in Boston, MA, where Jenny Lind, the Swedish Nightingale was to entertain. The crowds rioted. So she sang from one of the four towers of the concert hall. When the hall was demolished, the tower was brought to Cape Cod. On some nights residents say that they can hear Jenny’s voice singing from the tower.</p>
<p>The next stop was Marconi Beach with its lighthouse. At this point the trans-Atlantic telegraph cable was laid, seven copper wires thick. Sometimes the wire can be seen uncovered in the sand at low tide. Our final light house was at Nauset Beach. About a mile down the beach a researcher, who wrote The Outtermost House, lived.  Nearby the Pilgrims first sighted land in the new world. The chose Plymouth, because the harbor was not adequate for their safety.</p>
<p>On the way back to the mainland (Cape Cod is cut off from it by a canal) Rte 6A takes you through the quaint towns of Orleans, Dennis,Yarmouth, Barnstable, and Sandwich. The winding road is one of the oldest highways in the nation, the Old King&#8217;s Highway. The Southern route, rte. 28, goes though Chatham, Harwich, Hyannis, Falmouth, and their East and West counterparts. This area is more built up, especially around Hyannis, where the Kennedy family has its compound. The only way to view this is by sea. From the Southern shore, the islands of Martha’s Vinyard and Nantucket are accessible via ferry. Nantucket was a major whaling community, but New Bedford took over that title of the largest, because of its deeper harbor. Martha’s Vineyard is notable for the Chappaquiddick incident involving Maryjo Kopeckne and Senator Teddy Kennedy back in the 60s.</p>
