A “Must See” in Yarmouth

If you haven’t yet been to Gray’s Beach (referred to as Bass Hole by the locals),  or are planning a trip to Yarmouth in the near future, put this location on your list as a “must do” while you’re visiting our lovely town. This 868 foot long boardwalk is located at the mouth of Garden Creek and features gorgeous greenery; extending over the salt marsh allows it to offer an excellent view of coastal plant and marine life.

Love this area? Want to leave your mark permanently? The Yarmouth Parks and Recreation Department has a Boardwalk Plank Program that allows people to pay special tribute to a loved one, commemorate a vacation or honor a person or pet in their life. Planks are engraved with up to 25 letters or characters (including spaces) and will be placed on the boardwalk for everyone to see.

Want to learn more about this area? Check out this video by Christopher Setterlund, author of “In My Footsteps: A Cape Cod Travel Guide”. Christopher was nice enough to share this informative clip about the boardwalk with us. Enjoy!

 

 

 

The End of an Era

The Mill Hill Club on Route 28 in West Yarmouth holds fond memories for many people. It has also been the source of heated discussions over the years since its closing more than seven years ago. Plans to demolish this dilapidated property are in full swing, with the date yet to be determined but slotted for sometime by the beginning of April.

Per the minutes of the Cape Cod Commission’s meeting on March 28, 2013, in which Mayflower Place’s proposal was approved, the following project was proposed: Mayflower Place, an existing facility with independent living units and a skilled nursing home, proposed the construction of a new, free-standing, 75 unit Memory Care facility, a new wing connected to the existing facility proposed to house 50 independent living units plus one caretaker’s apartment, and associated landscaping, parking, wastewater, drainage, and site upgrades.

Check back often for updates on the date of demolition and the details on the “End of an Era” party at DiParma Italian Table across the street during the demolition! Prime viewing area for what will truly be the end of an era.
