One of the best things about Even’tide’s five-acre wooded property is its location. There is direct access to the Cape Cod Rail Trail bike path and Cape Cod National Seashore’s Marconi Beach is a one-mile walk away. The property is family-operated and built with extra care given during the building process to ensure quiet within the rooms.

Motel rooms are offered in a variety of sizes and configurations. In addition, the rental cottages that dot the property range from a one-bedroom (two-person) cottage, to a four-bedroom, four-bath house. Maximum occupancy in the largest cottage is 10 people, including babies. All cottages have outdoor barbecues and picnic tables, cable TV (with HBO), full tiled baths, carpeted living areas, plus full kitchens and outdoor decks.

Guests have access to the motel’s 30-foot by 60-foot heated indoor pool, attached private sun deck and large playground. A basketball court, five-hole mini-golf, horseshoe pit, badminton, volleyball, pool table, shuffleboard court and ping pong table are also available.
