New Year's Eve on Cape Cod

For those of you that are thinking of a New Year's getaway, why not come to the Cape. You can enjoy dinner in one of the many fine dining restaurants on the Cape and then bring in the New Year quietly or you can celebrate with dinner, music, dancing. Our neigbor, the Yarmouth House, has a full evening planned with dinner, party hats, music, and dancing. For the younger crowd, enjoy an evening at Pufferbellies with two DJ's, champagne toast at midnight and hor'dorves.

Families will enjoy first night at Chatham. Centered on Main Street, First Night Chatham offers something for everyone - a circus, musicians, presentations by local artists, theater, opera, entertainment, a bonfire, a noise parade and a fireworks finale. Buttons are available for $15 for adults and $5 for children 3 - 11. For more information visit www.firstnightchatham.com . There will also be Chatham lighthouse tours on 12/31 from 2 to 4 PM.

Or just getaway from the stress of preparing for the holidays and enjoy our heated pool and hot tub. The weather continues to be unseasonably mild and perfect for walks on the beach looking for shells and driftwood. The sound and smell of the ocean are soothing and encourage reflection on the new year. Enjoy your holidays and hope to see you at the Tidewater. Our special New Year's rate is $69.99 for one night or $59.99 if staying more than one night.

Hyannis Village Christmas Stroll

The Hyannis Village Christmas Stroll takes place this weekend, December 7th and 8th, on Main Street, Hyannis and the waterfront. On Friday, December 7, Main Street is closed to cars from 5 - 9PM so that the public can enjoy all the activities on the street without worrying about traffic. Most of the restaurants are offering a 20% discount on meals. Many stores have an open house and are offering a discount on these two days and also cookies and hot mulled cider to warm up lookers and shoppers. The fun starts at 5PM with hayrides, trolley rides down Main Street and little red cart rides for children. Of course there will be carolers, music, crafts, face painting, jewelry making...the list goes on and on. Breakfast with Santa, the lighting of the Village Green and the Harbor Lighting and Boat Parade are some of the highlights.

Only on the Cape would Santa arrive by boat. Watch the Harbor lighting from the warmth and comfort of the Cape Cod Maritime Museum and enjoy cider and cookies. The Artist Shanties will be open for shopping and Santa's arrival. Hy-Line Cruises will provide a complimentary Harbor Tour. What fun! For more details on the activities visit www.hyannismainstreet.com/ChristmasStroll

So pack your bags, bring the kids and enjoy some Christmas cheer on the Cape. Of course, we would like you to stay at the Tidewater where you can enjoy the pool before or after the activities, and our own breakfast diner, Helen's Diner. This weekend's special is $59.99 for Friday or Saturday night.
