Welcome from the Brewster Chamber of Commerce!
BREWSTER 2012
This year’s Best of Brewster magazine is dedicated to a favorite natural resource: our beaches!
Table of Contents
Do you remember the excitement you felt as you got ready for the first beach-trip of the summer? Tom Stringe’s cover art – titled Almost There – conjures up those memories. Gathering
up the towels and toys; packing the cooler with a day’s supply of sandwiches; stuffing everything into the station wagon; and then finally heading down the road. Can you hear your Dad
saying it? “We’re almost there!”

Brewster is bordered on the north by Cape Cod Bay and our saltwater beaches are one of the
most popular destinations in town. Each public beach is named for the road that leads to it,
making them easy to find. And twice a day (almost) the Brewster Flats beckon young and old
to explore the tidal pools and mudflats that are exposed as Cape Cod Bay recedes.
Then there are the fresh water beaches at Brewster’s ponds. Here you can swim, canoe or
kayak, go fishing from the shore or boat, or just relax under the canopy of trees surrounding
their shores.
And when you’ve had enough of the beaches for the day, Brewster has much more to offer. In
these pages, you’ll find information about attractions, shopping, food, services, lodging and
real estate, as well as general information about the Town of Brewster.
Whether you’re here for the day, the week or year-round, we know you’ll find the Best of
Brewster!

Beaches
Antiques Etc.
Brewster is famous for the Brewster
Flats, a phenomenon created by the ebb and
flow of the daily tides when the waters recede
out of Cape Cod Bay over 1 mile to reveal
sandbars, clam beds and tidal pools teeming
with sea life. To experience this at least once a
day, visit one of our beaches. From east to west
these are: Crosby Landing, Linnell Landing, Ellis
Landing, Breakwater Beach, Saint’s Landing,
Mant’s Landing and Paines Creek. There are:
portable toilets from June - Labor Day; No
lifeguards; handicap access (beach wheelchair
may be reserved from Council on Aging 508896-2737.)

The Grist Mill, beside Stony Brook, is a quiet
reminder that this location was a busy 19th
Century industrial area. The Factory Village
produced goods such as shoes, furniture
and fabric. The present Grist Mill was built in
1873 on the foundation of an old fulling and
woolen mill. Water flowing over the water
wheel creates power to grind corn between
giant millstones. The town bought the mill
and surrounding area in 1940. After recent
years of refurbishment the museum is open
and the mill is grinding corn again. Open Sat
10am-2pm, late June-August.

Brewster’s harbinger of spring is the news
that “The herring are running!” From midApril through early May, hordes of herring
migrate up Stony Brook from the salt water
of Cape Cod Bay to spawn in the pond waters
of West Brewster. The Herring Run’s paths
are a great place to observe the alewives’ awe
inspiring journey up the fish ladders. The
Run is considered a Cape Cod classic. There
is picnic table at the site.

Brewster’s first business was established in
1663 when a grist mill was built on what is
now Stony Brook. Since then, entrepreneurs
have been hanging their shingle here, meeting the needs of the local community.
Today, Brewster is the ‘professional hub’ of
the Lower Cape, home to all types of engi-
neers, dentists, architects, massage therapists, construction and trade specialists, chefs
and fine artists to name a few. These types of
businesses fit nicely into the rural environment and they provide local residents with
jobs that pay well. The owners and managers
are involved in the community and volunteer
on Town committees, with local public charities, and to present local events that help to
bolster our tourism economy.
The next time you’re looking for a service
– for your home, for yourself or for your
business - remember that your chamber of
commerce is better than the Yellow Pages
because we know our members!
The Stony Brook Gristmill and Higgins Farm Windmill are
featured in the Brewster Chamber of Commerce logo,
honoring the long history of business in town.

and improve the quality of life we all enjoy in Brewster, such as the Crosby Mansion,
the Meeting House restoration and, of course, the Brewster Whitecaps.

Lodging in Brewster includes everything from
rustic cottages to homey bed and breakfasts
to elegant inns and resorts. Many properties
are open year-round and most B&B’s and inns
include breakfast for their guests. Reservations
are required during the peak summer season:
it is not unusual for Brewster’s rooms to be
completely sold out in mid-August!
There are also many private homes and cottages available to rent in Brewster. This can be
an economical option for families, wedding
parties, reunion groups and others. There are
number of reputable real estate agencies that
can assist with this - see page 20 of the Directory for a complete list.

Camping in Brewster is very popular and the camp grounds are often
booked years in advance, so call them early to “get on the list” for an
open spot! These are generally open from late Spring through the Fall
until it’s too cold!
Crosby Mansion
Evidence of Brewster’s sea captain forefathers is seen all over town as
many of their homes are now inns and bed and breakfasts where visitors
can experience the elegance of another era. Crosby Mansion is one such
home, now owned and maintained by the Town of Brewster as a living
history tribute to the past. Located off Main St. (Rte. 6A) on Crosby Lane
in East Brewster, the elegant grounds are open to the public for walking
all summer, and the mansion is open with guided tours during open
houses held in July and August – visit www.Brewster-CapeCod.com for
dates.
The mansion overlooks Cape Cod Bay, with architecture featuring a
fanciful collection of turrets, towers and columns. Built in 1887 by
entrepreneur Albert Crosby, the building is full of wonderful details
inside and out. It’s interesting to note that the mansion was actually built
around Mr. Crosby’s grandparents’ original Cape Cod homestead, and a
small door inside connects the two buildings. For more information call
508-896-1744.

AVERAGE TEMPERATURES
Brewster is a uniquely residential community
that happens to also be a popular visitor destination on Cape Cod. It is the rural character,

District encompassing Brewster, Orleans,
Eastham, and Wellfleet students. Students in
grades Kindergarten through 2nd attend the
Stony Brook Elementary at 384 Underpass

There are numerous places to get on the trail:
the intersection of Route 137 and Underpass
