The Shady Hollow Inn is an impeccable five-bedroom/four-and-one-half bath sea captain's home located in historic South Dennis Village on Cape Cod. Since 2001 the Inn has served with distinction as the Cape's only vegetarian B&B, attracting visitors from all over the world with its reputation for quality in all facets of hospitality.
Fully renovated since 2001, the property is in perfect condition and offers a floor plan that comfortably accommodates visitors and owners alike. The welcoming and impeccably maintained environment is so appealing to inn guests that many return repeatedly. The Shady Hollow Inn is being offered turn-key to future proprietors.
Each of the four guest bedrooms is appointed with luxurious linens, artwork, antiques, and private or semi-private baths. Guest common space includes a charming living room comfortably furnished and warmed by a gas fireplace flanked by built-ins for books and artwork. A generous dining room is a gathering area for guests throughout the day. An adjoining sun-dappled brick terrace and porch replete with rockers are fine spots for morning coffee, end-of-day reading and reflection, and viewing the eponymous “shady hollow” vernal pond. Separate owner’s quarters include a living room, bedroom, 1-1/2 baths, eat-in kitchen, laundry and office. There is ample guest and owner parking to the rear.
All aspects of the property--from roof to foundation--have been skillfully and tastefully restored, appealing to those who appreciate antique charm and fine workmanship. The property boasts new appliances, systems, finishes and fixtures throughout. Exterior upgrades include new roof, new clapboard siding, restored porch and terrace, and other improvements too numerous to mention.
Located at the midpoint between the Cape Cod Canal and Provincetown, the Inn offers guests proximity to world-class tourist destinations throughout the Cape. The warm waters of Nantucket Sound and Cape Cod Bay--playgrounds for sailors, bathers, anglers and whale watchers--are within minutes, while the renowned Cape Cod National Seashore is a short drive. The Inn is also a short jaunt to shops, galleries, professional theaters, golf, and fine dining. Many regional attractions including the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History, Cape Cod Museum of Art, Cape Playhouse, Cape Cod Rail (Bike) Trail, and the Kennedy Museum are all nearby. Ferries to the islands of Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard leave regularly from nearby Hyannisport.
The Shady Hollow Inn has provided a satisfying business endeavor for its current owners who, pursuing careers in skilled carpentry and fine art, operate the inn as a part-time occupation. The inn's website, travel sites, referrals, repeat business and a reservation service have effectively generated revenue since its inception.
