Woods Hole Film Festival

The 27th Annual Woods Hole Film Festival starts Saturday, July 28 and runs through Saturday, August 4, 2018. It is eight fun-filled days of screenings, music, workshops, panel discussions, parties, special events, and more!

Take a day trip to Martha’s Vineyard.

Staying for a week or more in Falmouth. One of the most popular day trips, is to Martha’s Vineyard. The Island Queen Ferry is located right across from InnSeason Resorts HarborWalk. It offers quick, reasonably priced trips.  It takes about a half an hour and costs $20 for adults $10 for kids (round trip), and is hard to beat for uniqueness and fun.  You land in Oak Bluffs, which has restaurants, bike rentals, beaches, shops, even an old carousel! There really is something for everyone. Not to mention a pretty cool boat ride. 

Happy Mother’s Day
