About the host
Hosted by Art Akeley
I'm Art and I assist my elderly mother with the property. We are originally from northern ME and initially transplanted to the Cape Cod area in 1991 while serving in the U. S. Coast Guard. I've lived continually on the Cape since 1999 upon return from duty in Hawaii but have been summered in one degree or another at the property all my life.
Why they chose this property
This property was acquired by extended family and has passed through three generations since the 1950's. The next-door property was built by my grandfather with his principal help coming from my mother who was a teenager at the time of construction.
What makes this property unique
Probably the most unique benefit is the closeness of the beach, the vibrant, family-friendly neighborhood, and easy opportunity to explore Cape Cod in most any direction.
