The perfect hideaway for a RELAXING vacation.

I have stayed at the Foote Rest almost every year of my life. As I grew older I came to appreciate the location of this quaint little house in the woods. I love the outdoors, quiet and solitude. This is the perfect place to get away with your family. You can spend a week here without getting into your car if you want. Some of my favorite activities while at the Foote Rest include: playing cards with my family, reading on the deck or in the hammock, picking blueberries (they grow behind the house), utilizing the outdoor shower, cooking a tasty dinner with my family, walking to the general store or to the beach to swim and bodysurf in the water, running on the White Cedar Swamp Trail and to the Marconi Site, biking into town (you can avoid Rte 6 all-together), and riding my bike along the rail trail or to the ponds. There are sunfish rentals at Gull Pond, the water is generally warmer than the Atlantic, and the sand is nice and soft. When you find youself this far out on the Cape, you will realize that much of what the Cape has been for the past 100 years is still preserved. It is unusual to find such natural beauty protected on the East Coast nowadays. This is a place where you can take a deep breath, relax, and reconnect with yourself or your family, or just forget about the world. It makes an impression on your heart you will never forget.
