The soft, ocean breeze kisses your cheek as you unwind in your waterfront cottage or luxury suite. Wander through our lavish landscaping towards the sound of crashing waves to discover the cerulean waters of Cape Cod's National Seashore. Enchantment continues when you charter a boat to nearby historic villages and watch the sun slowly fall over pebbled beaches.
Over 400 years ago, the Wampanoag Indians were the first to discover the pleasures of summering at Wequassett, swimming and fishing in the Bay's clear waters, chipping arrowheads from colored stones on the shore, and gathering quahog and periwinkle shells for wampum. They named the land Wequassett, which means "crescent on the water, " most likely because the sand-spit curves about the Cove are in the crescent shape.
In 1665, Sachem John Quason Towsowett sold the land to William Nickerson, who eventually settled the town of Chatham. Of the 22 historic buildings that comprise the luxury beach resort, two boast especially noteworthy stories.
