The End of the Season

This weekend we had the last very busy weekend on Cape Cod. We had a group of softball players in house and two bus groups also. There were also four couples that stayed at the Tidewater for the first time. They are close friends and have travelled together on Columbus Day Weekend for over thirty years! They have stayed at many different hotels but decided to try us this weekend. They had such a good time and enjoyed staying at the Tidewater so much that they booked for Columbus Day Weekend 2010! I talked to them many times and they were certainly a lot of fun. We are flattered that they have chosen to come back to the Tidewater. The best part of my job is meeting my guests and making sure their needs are met.
