Cape Cod, MA: Life on Vacation

Cape Cod, a very unique 400 square mile peninsula, with 115 beaches, 41 golf courses, 50 miles of bike trails, with 15 communities, each offering a complete vacation and year round experience.

Two years ago, it was very difficult to find a home under $300,000, but that is not the case today, and this news is drawing more and more 2^nd home buyers, who can easily generate rental income if they wish.

Here in Falmouth, where I sell and list real estate, ( www.peterhawley.com), the beaches are dotted with people on vacation as well as locals, who enjoy the sea shore every day.  Summer is not the only time when people spend time on the Cape. Due to the mild climate, after Labor Day new visitors appear. Mostly those who are "empty nesters", traveling retirees, and those who wish to absorb the changing of the seasons, as the green of the marsh grasses begin to turn golden brown and the Swamp Maple leaves turn to a brilliant red.

September and October offer some of the best sailing days, a perfect time to come to Falmouth and day trip to Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket.  Tee times are easy to get, and the fishing is still fantastic, as some species begin their migration to warmer waters.

Biking or hiking allows you to view nature at very nice slow pace, and it is a wonderful time to bird watch, as the winter birds begin to arrive. So, come visit, and know that this all can be yours, every day, when you Buy property on Cape Cod. (phawley@jackconway.com)
