What are the areas to avoid on the Cape, and what makes them bad?

I have not spent much time on MV, but don't parts of it have really bad traffic in the summer? Traffic on the cape is bad too but it is bigger so I think easier to avoid the traffic.


It’s not at all like traffic you think of here. Moreso the busier parts of Edgartown and Oak Bluffs are a very mild version of Georgetown M St. So you have to wait to cross, people are looking for parking, etc.. very simple and not what I would consider traffic tbh being from here.

We already pay way more for services like cleaning and lawn/landscape maintenance on the Cape than we do here, but Nantucket takes it to another level.


Is the miniseries from an Elin Hilderbrand novel? She's always writing about Nantucket.

Easier to drive to, which is a plus for us since we bring our dog. We rent a house on a pond and a sunfish and sail every day.

Nothing?
We flew directly from DC to Nantucket. Took like an hour and 15 minutes. Picked up our car and - woof.

cape is cheaper and easier to get to. More variety in restaurants and things to do and better beaches for kids (bay side).

The Cape is definitely cheaper since you are not reliant on the ferry for provisions, labor, transport, etc.

Not having to deal with the ferry.

Wider range of HHI. More strip malls. No ferry. More stagnant bodies of water.

All three are nice. I guess Cape Cod has more variety and can suit a lot of different kind of vacationers. It’s easier to get to as well.

In your traveling experience, what appeals to you on Cape Cod, is there anything that I wouldn’t find on MV or Nantucket?
