Perfect Getaway Ideas at AutoCamp Cape Cod

We’re all about freedom—to explore, to be yourself, and to take the kind of vacation you need. Sometimes that means a romantic weekend for two cozied up in one of our fully outfitted Airstreams or X-Suites, and sometimes that means booking a couple of tents with your all-time BFFs for a group gathering to catch up around the campfire. Here are a few of our favorite ideas for vacations of all kinds

Solo Escape

The shores of New England have inspired countless artists throughout history for good reason—there is something deeply peaceful and restorative about this corner of the world, where sandy beaches meet ancient woods. Book a luxury tent to yourself, stock up on a few excellent books and recenter yourself. If you need to stretch your legs, take a hike through the old-growth forests of the Lowell Holly Reservation, which is just a short scenic drive from AutoCamp. In the warmer months, sign up for guided, complimentary yoga right on-site, and venture into Wood’s Hole or Falmouth for a meal at one of our favorite restaurants, like Pie in the Sky bakery.

Family Vacay

Get your kids into the great outdoors and spend some quality family time away from all the screens. All of our accommodations are family-friendly, but for something they’ll truly never forget, consider booking a Basecamp, which offers a custom kid’s tent for independent young adventurers. Linger over meals cooked over the campfire before swinging by the AutoCamp Adventure Zone, a cedar-built playground right next to the Clubhouse where kids can run, jump, swing, and explore without having to leave the property. Other kid-friendly experiences include learning all about marine life up close at the Woods Hole Science Aquarium and meeting the animals – like llamas – at nearby Coonamessett Farm, where the whole family can also enjoy a farm-to-table lunch, berry picking, and other idyllic farm activities. 

Couple’s Weekend

Spend some quality time with your significant other watching the sunset from outside your cozy Airstream, luxury tent, or X-Suite. Each offers the romance of just being together in the great outdoors, with the added luxuries of super soft bedding, secluded outdoor space, and clear views of the stars. Have a cocktail over a crackling campfire and book a romantic sail aboard a historic schooner, which takes you past the charming Nobska Lighthouse. Falmouth and Woods Hole are also ideal spots for a date night dinner or delicious weekend lunch of locally-sourced New England seafood, like fresh scallops from Water Street Kitchen or The Quarterdeck’s famous lobster salad sandwich.

Group Getaway

We’re all hungry for community connection and quality time spent with friends. Whether you’re finally getting around to booking that long-awaited girl’s trip, guy’s weekend, or even planning a low key bachelorette or bachelor party, AutoCamp Cape Cod’s flexible lodgings are the perfect way to capture a feeling of togetherness while still offering plenty of space for privacy and alone time when you need it. Your crew can also book the kind of overnight accommodations that suit their style, so everyone’s happy—and there’s tons of communal gathering space in the Clubhouse and around the group fire for meeting up to head out for the day or wind down over a beer. Make the most of your beach time with a day at Wood Neck Beach, an idyllic sandy escape just a five-minute bike ride from AutoCamp—you can even borrow wheels and purchase a pre-made picnic from us. For a truly unforgettable bonding experience, there’s also kayaking and paddleboarding packages available, or dip a toe into the extreme and book a skydive over Cape Cod for an adrenaline rush that comes with birds-eye views of the stunning New England coastline.
