Thanks, MikeR and Andy, for the feedback. We booked our ferry tickets and I just got the rental agreement for a little cottage on Surfside beach. So, we are all set. We are going just after the 4th of July week so maybe the crowds won't be at their peak. And if it's totally nuts, our little cottage is right on the beach so we can just stay put and enjoy the view.

Inerestingly, I posted a message about the car on the Fodors board and the replies all said "No car!" But, when I spoke to the owner of the cottage, one of the first things she said was, "It's good you are bringing the car."

Now that we have a place to stay and the tickets to get there, we can turn our attention to the fun stuff!

Thanks for your input. This board amazes me in how it connects people and the advice one can get!

enjoy...as I said, that is usually the last quiet week before it gets intensely insane....Surfside faces the south which is where the wind blows from just about everyday in the summer on the Cape and the Islands....so you will have a nice ocean breeze keeping you cool, but the surf might be rough at times compared to the other beaches

if you re waiting on the Ferry in Hyannis and have time to kill go to Tugboats http://www.tugboatscapecod.com/about.shtml right there within walking distance for killer fried clams and beer
