Plan Your Next Cape Cod Weekend Getaway in the Quaint Village of Woods Hole

From creating an itinerary to managing a budget, planning a trip can become overwhelming. And, in juggling all the tasks, romance tends to lag behind practicality.

The truth; however, is that you don’t have to spend weeks planning the perfect trip and hundreds of dollars on special rose petal packages. Here are a few tips to help you book accommodations with the romance built right in.
 
Avoid Crowds
Many of the supposed “most romantic places in the U.S.” aren’t as romantic as you might think because EVERYONE else watched the same reality show you did, or read the same brochure and they’re headed there too. Instead of heading for the main attraction, standing in line for 45 minutes, and waiting for several other couples to move out of the way before you can take your picture, seek out some nearby attractions that might be just as great with a bit more privacy.
 
Get Personal
Sure, sure you could make it easy and just order some chocolates or a bottle of Champagne to be popped upon your arrival. But, tailoring your romantic gestures to what your partner truly appreciates will make the trip all the more special.
 
Embrace Mystery
An unexpected getaway may be enough of a romantic gesture in itself, but if your partner doesn’t like such big surprises, you can still add a little to the mix when you arrive. Let them know where and when they’re going so they can pack accordingly, but plan a special dinner or fun excursion that you can surprise them with while on the trip. You could even make it a mystery for both of you by trying something new together.
 
Disconnect, then Reconnect
To really make the most of your romantic weekend getaway, set some ground rules with your phones. Maybe even consider making it a completely screen free weekend, and leave the TV off as well.
 
With these tips in mind, let’s start planning your romantic getaway in Woods Hole.
 

Cape Cod Romantic Getaways at the Harbor House

Perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, or “just because,” our beautifully restored sea captain’s home may be just the romantic location you’re looking for.
 
The Harbor House is set hillside, providing beautiful sunset views, seclusion and serenity. But, if you’re feeling up for a little more activity, you’ll find it right around the corner. We’re just a short walk from the main street lined with restaurants, shopping and art galleries. Numerous foot and bike paths also provide easy access to miles of bays, sounds and beaches.
 
Woods Hole activities could certainly fill up your weekend getaway. You have the option to keep it low key, spending your days meandering one of the nearby beaches or lounging by our pool. At night, stroll down the main street, or enjoy a glass of wine on your room’s private balcony.
 
However, if you’re a dynamic duo that prefers a go-go-go style, the Harbor House is still an ideal home base for day trips to Martha’s Vineyard, Nantucket or Provincetown and Cape Cod activities such as whale watching, crabbing or sunset cruising.
 
Just a short drive from Boston Logan International Airport and several major east coast cities, you’ll still feel a world away when you stay with us.
