Whether you fly, ferry, ride the rails, pedal, paddle or drive to Cape Cod, going car-free once you’re over the bridge is actually not a complete pain if you book a summer rental in the right spot. Hands down, the Cape’s best neighborhood for a car-free summer rental with both transit options and walkability is the one and only Provincetown.
Provincetown is Cape Cod’s most popular vacation spot, “America’s pre-eminent destination for gay and lesbian visitors and residents,” home to the country’s oldest art colony, where the Pilgrims first landed, and other awesomeness (kid-friendly, open year-round, the perfect wedding destination) touted by the Provincetown Chamber of Commerce. Naturally, all of that makes the parking situation abysmal.
