The Wauwinet

We loved our stay at The Wauwinet this July! The entire staff was so welcoming and helpful. We really enjoyed the amenities such as the bikes, private beaches, port / cheese hour, and backgammon in the library. Having Toppers for breakfast and a nightcap (including my pots of tea) was so convenient. If you're spending a lot of time downtown, you might not like the 20 minute drive back and forth, but for my husband and I, we loved escaping the crowds. We had a bay view from our charming room, which was beautiful. And finally, when we were checking out, Tiffany and one other gal (whose name I unfortunately didn't get) jumped in to help us find a way to get 2 photo prints we purchased from a gallery downtown back home safely. We would highly recommend a stay here for anyone who wants a place to truly unwind!

Did not stay here but took the launch over from The White Elephant for lunch. This was a $30pp charge and was a beautiful ride, however, it was windy so you can get sprayed. Lunch was fabulous. We had the Mushroom Risotto and the French Tart. We also had a delicious dessert. Service was 5 Star! Great way to spend the day when in ACK!

I'm a Cape Cod wedding photographer based in Duxbury and shot an amazing proposal at The Wauwinet last weekend. It was the first time I had been on site and was blown away by so many aspects of the venue. First it is extremely beautiful, quiet, private and feels unique. The staff was so helpful, professional and clearly focused on the experience of being there. It was not uptight, it felt like everyone there knew each other. The grounds were perfectly maintained, the views were spectacular and the energy was just very positive. I've shot at a lot of very nice venues and I can confidently say that it's well worth your time to spend a night here.
