Our Favorite Place to Stay On Cape Cod
At Ship's Knees Inn, we pride ourselves on offering a unique and unforgettable experience for our guests. Our charming circa-1820 restored sea captain's home is located just a stone's throw away from world-famous Nauset Beach, making it the perfect destination for those seeking a relaxing beach vacation on Cape Cod.
Our Story
Our journey began over two centuries ago, when the elegant home of Freeman Snow stood proudly on a gentle knoll overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Today, our hotel on the beach continues to serve as a peaceful haven, welcoming guests from around the world to enjoy the beauty of Orleans, Massachusetts.
Our Accommodations
Each of our 16 individually decorated guest rooms is unique, offering comfortable beds, premium linens, flat-screen TVs with cable, Wi-Fi, and air conditioning. Some rooms boast working fireplaces, private entrances, and distant views of the ocean. A sumptuous buffet-style continental breakfast is included with your stay, and can be enjoyed in our charming dining room or by the pool.
Amenities
At Ship's Knees Inn, we understand that a perfect beach vacation is about more than just a comfortable place to sleep. That's why we offer an outdoor swimming pool, daily continental breakfast, and Wi-Fi throughout our property. We also have a fire pit, perfect for gathering with fellow guests or enjoying a quiet moment to yourself.
Exploring Orleans and Beyond
While our hotel's proximity to Nauset Beach makes it easy to spend your days lounging in the sun, there's so much more to explore on Cape Cod. Enjoy a free summer concert at Nauset Beach, delight in a plate of fresh seafood at one of our local mobile beach eateries, or indulge in upscale cuisine at Nauset Beach Club. With dozens of restaurants, beaches, and attractions within a 30-minute drive, there's something for everyone on Cape Cod.
