AutoCamp Cape Cod

AutoCamp Cape Cod

10/10 Excellent
"On first perception, thought the airstream was a little small, but quickly fell in love with the surroundings and area. I advise to buy the marshmallows and wood from a super store (half the price), but our family ended up having an excellent time, and it ended up being the fave part of our trip that included 5 star hotel rooms. Just adjust expectations and go with it. Amazing stay!"

Holiday Inn Express Hyannis Cape Cod by IHG

8/10 Good
"Their windows lack enough shade blinds to block the lights coming inside at night. It would have been a 5-star experience if they ensured guests had a comfortable sleep. When you’re in a new place, sleep issues are common, and if you have this kind of problem, it can be quite frustrating. I was awake after 3 am and managed to cover the gaps. The staff was concerned about the paint peeling off and the damage might caused by the scotch tape."

"First time coming to Martha’s Vineyard and staying at Summercamp, we had an amazing time. We had a slight issue with the room but the front desk quickly helped to make everything perfect for the rest of our stay. Enjoyed sitting on the porch, reading and people watching. Can’t beat the harbor view as well. Can’t beat the location, central to everything in Oak Bluffs, ferry, cottages and circuit street. Biscuits is a three minute walk must try. Highly recommend this place."
