April Vacation Guide

Looking for some fun activities to do during your April Vacation on Cape Cod? We put together a list of some of our favorites! Did we miss any? Leave a comment below!

• Try the escape room at Upside Down Escape Games (Mashpee) - put down the electronics and leave the real world behind for 60 minutes to spend quality time with friends and family in an interactive and immersive experience. Players are placed in a room and have 60 minutes to complete a mission by solving a series of puzzles and connecting clues. Each game consists of carefully crafted puzzles and clues that will challenge your ability to observe, connect, and communicate.

• Grab a sweet treat at Hatchville Baking Co (Mashpee) - they make warm, gooey cookies like your grandma used to make them. Everything is made from scratch with the best ingredients and they never use any preservatives. Stop in and say hi to their newly opened store in Mashpee Commons Thursday - Sunday for freshly baked cookies. Just a heads up, get there early because they sellout fast!
