Surrounded by three acres of wooded land in a quiet rural area, the newly renovated cabins of HI Eastham are only a short distance from the wide, white sandy beaches of Cape Cod. The main building has a fully equipped kitchen for preparing your own meals and a large dining area. The Eastham Hostel also has private cabins with a double bed and three singles, as well as, coed dormitory cabins. Breakfast, wifi access and parking are all free.

Bicycle and kayak rentals are available in town and at the beach. Cyclists can pedal down the nearby Cape Cod Rail Trail, a 30-mile bike path that attracts thousands of visitors each year. The hostel also offers group packages that include surfing and kayaking excursions.

Street Map and Route Planning
Directions
| Bus: | [from Hyannis or Provincetown, take the Plymouth & Brockton bus to the Orleans rotary. (Do not go to Eastham!) When you board the bus, tell the driver you need to get off on the Orleans rotary (roundabout) at the Rock Harbor exit; drivers will do this during daylight hours. From the rotary, turn left onto Rock Harbor Road. Then turn right onto Bridge Road. Turn right onto Goody Hallet Drive. The hostel driveway will be on your left. The walk from the rotary to the hostel is about 0.75 mi (~1.2 km). If you will arrive by bus, it is critical that you arrive before dark as the walk to the hostel is along a road with no sidewalk. It is certainly safe to walk to the hostel, but only during full daylight. (There is no taxi service in Orleans.) Leave Hyannis on the 4:30pm bus (or earlier). To make that connection: leave Boston on the Plymouth & Brockton bus by 2:15pm or New York City on the 9:30am Peter Pan bus. |
| Parking: | At hostel |
| Sea port: | Hyannis. Take the Plymouth & Brockton bus to Orleans, or drive. See above directions. |
| Location: | Take Sagamore or Bourne Bridge onto Cape Cod, follow Rt. 6 past exit 12. At the Orleans rotary (roundabout) take the third exit, signed Rock Harbor. Turn left onto Rock Harbor Road and then take the first right, onto Bridge Road. Again, take the first right, onto Goody Hallet Drive. The hostel will be on the left. |
| Airport: | Boston: 100 miles. Take Sagamore Bridge onto Cape Cod, follow route 6 past exit 12. At the next rotary, go 3/4 of the way around and get off at Rock Harbor. Make a left onto Rock Harbor Road and then take the first right onto Bridge Rd. Again, take the first right onto Goody Hallet Drive (small road). The hostel will be on the left. |

| The staff was very nice and friendly. Food was just enough at the breakfast, I guess they can make better arrangements with some extra food. The overall cleanliness of bathroom for men was poor and needs lot of improvement. | ||

| The staff seemed more exhausted than last year's group with more "blackout" hours in the common areas and a shift toward Self-serv breakfast items | ||

| Put a sign on the CCRT to indicate where to turn for the hostel. Someone said they're may be one on the board at the rail trail, but I never looked at the board. In the same way that there are the little indicators for cars driving to the hostel, it would be fantastic to have one of those for the bike trail. Thanks! | ||
