As one of the few true duneland links in North America, Cape Cod hosts some of the most distinct and, in a way, traditional golf available in the country. With 20 public and semi-private courses and 15 private clubs on the Cape between Barnsatable and Provincetown, there are plenty of opportunities to tee it up during your stay at the end of Massachusetts. But the big question is, where will you stay if you are traveling with your four-legged best friend in Wellfleet? There are several choices when it comes to dog-friendly accommodations in the area.
