ABOUT SCONSET: If you are not familiar with Sconset, it is a self-contained village, a world far removed from the August bedlam of town. It has four restaurants, a quaint grocery store, liquor store, sandwich shop and post office. The house is a short bike ride or walk to the village where on many mornings people can be seen picking up fresh baked muffins and coffee at the Sconset Market or visiting the Bartlett's farm truck for fresh vegetables. Sconset has its own public beach access, but if you feel you want to branch out, the are many beaches within 10 minutes of the house. The Sconset “Casino” (tennis club) is open for public play in the afternoon. Most weeks there is also an old-fashioned movie night open to the public. The 9-hole public Siasconset Golf course is 5 minutes away. Miacomet golf course which has 18 holes is also open to the public and is about 15 minutes by car. A trip to town will take you about 15 minutes, but many people in Sconset never leave because they have everything, they need in one place!
