Property Accessibility Statement
The Inn at the Oaks was built in 1893 in Eastham, MA, and is designated as historic under the State or local law (§ 36.405 Alterations: Historic preservation.) Thus, we are not able to offer handicap accessible accommodations since such alterations would destroy the historical significance of the property. Here are Inn at the Oak’s accessibility limitations:
- Six steps to the main building entrance doorway and no wheelchair ramp.
- Two steps to the Carriage House building and no wheelchair ramp.
- A gravel driveway to access both buildings and the gardens.
- No elevator to guest rooms inside either building.
- Fifteen steps to the 2nd floor using the back stairs in the main building.
- Sixteen steps to the 2nd floor using the front stairs of the main building.
