Across the street from the mill, the side of the street you park on, there are some beautiful paths near the stream. I guess this is the herring run? Lots of gorgeous flowers, little waterfalls. And I saw at least 6 Snowy Egrets feeding in the stream maybe 100' from the parking lot. This side also has a few picnic tables under some huge trees should you decide to have some lunch. If you walk around the grist mill, there is a beautiful little pond in back complete with dam to control the flow of water to make the mill operate. Not far off 6A. Definitely worth a stop.

A celebration of…read moreturnips Eastham has been famous for its turnips for a long time. The sandy soil with lots of nitrogen is perfect for growing sweet turnips. Nobody is really sure where the Eastham variety of turnip comes form, some say its from Europe, other people say it was developed here on the Cape and others claim it is actually a cross between regular turnip and a rutabaga. Wherever these particular turnips originally come from Eastham is now famous for its small, purplish and very sweet turnips. In fact they are so proud of these root veggies that they have a festival honoring them every year. The festival of course had some Eastham Turnips for sale along with turnips games, turnip recipes, turnip hats, and of course crummy t-shirts with turnip pics and sayings on them. There also was a turnip cooking contest and musical entertainment. Quite a lot of turnip stuff going on and plenty of people to talk to that are really, really, really into turnips. Unfortunately the festival was jammed into a relatively small room in the local high school so not as many turnip things as I would like could be fit into the small space. I would have loved to have seen more turnip food for sale and perhaps some more arts and craft vendors. The huge rutabaga festivals in New york and Wisconsin are much larger with far more rutabagian things to do and fool with. Even though the Eastham Turnip Festival can't really compete with rutabaga events, it still was a fun place to spend some time and learn far more than you ever wanted to know about turnips.

Jeff and his son are very friendly and knowledgeable about cranberries if you want to learn about them. From growing, to picking to going in the screen house and separating what you picked.

I'm sure they are just as great Thanks again Jeff, brought back the good old days of my picking

I can see this is not a tourist trap, since I am just the fourth reviewer in ten years. Full…read moredisclosure, I did not think I was giving five stars when I was looking at places to visit, approaching from the outside, paying at the desk. What changed? So, here's our story. The desk said they would join us to a walking tour already in progress. The tour guides just circle the house, and so you would then leave the tour at the point you entered. In our case, the guide walked downstairs with a lady who immediately took her leave, so we had the tour guide to ourselves. (Good reason to visit places off-season.) As we walked around the rooms, she was explaining things, I was reading, photographing, asking questions, sometimes that didn't have answers... and I started to get the distinct impression that this is a truly local place reflecting what life is like in Centerville. And that's my favorite type of museum. Well. Let me tell you. Because it was just us, the guide started talking a little bit more about stuff that interested us, like some of the local history and families behind the place. And bit by bit, they softened, with smiles, and let us explore things that may not always be on view to the public. And I won't go into details on this public review. But that is how you feel like family instead of a tourist. And by the time we were done looking at the dresses, and the mannequins, and the armaments, and the anchovies, and orangutans, and breakfast cereals, and fruit bats... Oh, right. Centerville. Come on a day when it's not crowded, and I bet you'll come away with the five star sentiment yourself.

The wine samples provided were of good taste, reasonably priced at $20 per person. The staff were friendly; however, there was a lack of engagement from staff after the samples were purchased. As a token of appreciation, a complimentary wine glass with the Cape Cod logo was provided. Nevertheless, I was dissatisfied with the port-a-potty arrangement, stemming from its placement on uneven ground. Furthermore, the vineyard's trellises appeared poorly constructed, and the overall maintenance of the vineyard seemed lacking. The seating area was pleasant and the location has potential.
