ATLANTIC OAKS CAMP GROUND

Atlantic Oaks is a modern campground with a long list of conveniences which have been custom-tailored to meet the needs of RV’ers. Large, wooded, pull-thru sites are not only equipped with the full hookups which you would expect, but also include cable TV. Amenities include clean modern restrooms, free private hot showers, wireless high speed Internet service, a laundry, and LP gas sales. Our new 5,000 square foot multi-purpose building, shown above, is now open. There's also a playground, store and security gate for the convenience and enjoyment of our guests. Our campground is ideally situated, in the Town of Eastham, only a half mile from the National Seashore Visitor Center and just twenty miles from Provincetown. Bay and ocean beaches are nearby and the Cape Cod Rail Trail actually touches the back of our camp! While staying here at Atlantic Oaks, you may choose from many attractions in the area. These include playing in the surf at the National Seashore, swimming in the calm waters of the Cape Cod Bay, or bicycling any portion (or the entire length!) of the renowned Cape Cod Rail Trail. There are other nearby recreational options; take a whale watch trip from Provincetown, charter a fishing boat or launch your own from Rock or Wellfleet Harbors. Excellent restaurants, gift and antique shops are all close by, along with mini golf, the famous Wellfleet Flea Market and the Cape’s last drive-in movie theater.

Wandering Cape Cod again
Saturday October 12, 2024
September is a good time to visit the Cape. The crowds are gone, restaurants are still open, and it's surprisingly still quite warm. The sun lit my days for a week and a half, rain only the last few days, morning fog adding a little mystery to the cemetery across the street. A kind friend invited me to use her house; her family keeps it busy throughout the summer but fall is a quiet time. There always seems to be new places to explore.   I met a friend from Falmouth, who had lived in Yarmouth Port for a while, at Sesuit Harbor Café, with its picnic tables outdoor along the boat-filled harbor, still crowded on a Friday in September, for my first lobster roll of the visit.   Sesuit Harbor Café           Sesuit Beach   My friend told me stories of Yarmouth Port's historic buildings. We drove back to town and hiked the trail there and stood under the sprawling 100-year-old English Weeping Beech tree. I later toured Captain Bang Hallet's House, carefully restored, but only a few rooms were open. My favorite stop was the home of Edward Gorey, whose quirky, macabre drawings, that inspired Tim Burton's films, brought a smile.   Yarmouth Port historic area           Recreated indigenous structure               Captain Bang Hallet's House   Kelly's Chapel Gorham Cobbler Shop, little free library   Edward Gorey House       Children's corner, Yarmouth Port Public Library   Gray's Beach   Roughly a mile and a half long, the boardwalk at Gray's Beach is built above a marsh, hosting a variety of marine wildlife. One side is marsh, the other beach. At low tide, the marsh looks like a hedge maze with deep muddy lines running through it. At high tide, the maze fills with sea water and the beach just about disappears. A man I met there told me the best time to visit Gray's is when the tide is rushing in and filling the maze. I stopped by a few more times, but never did catch that magical moment.               low tide           high tide           Around town   Corner of Main and Summer Streets         Morning walks to Dennis Pond                 Wild turkeys   I took a couple of road trips during this time on the Cape.
