Meet the Innkeepers

About MariRose and Bernie Lynch!

Welcome to Inn at the Oaks - Cape Cod! We’re MariRose and Bernie Lynch, longtime Eastham residents passionate about preserving this 1896 Queen Anne Victorian. Blending historic charm with modern comforts, we’re excited to share it with you. Learn more about us on the "About the Innkeeper" page!

Built in the late 1800's, the inn has a rich history of welcoming guests since the 1920s. Notably, naturalist and author Henry Beston stayed here while writing his classic book, The Outermost House. Beston’s work, inspired by the Cape’s untamed beauty, is said to have contributed to the establishment of the Cape Cod National Seashore, signed into law by President John F. Kennedy in 1961. Thanks to this legacy, our cherished coastline is preserved for generations to come.
