My friend and I went here to check out local tourist attractions/history when we moved down to Cape for college. The little old lady that runs it is one of the sweetest, most generous ladies I've met, and she goes by the name of Boots. She really knew a lot about this town's history, and educated everyone in our tour group. I love this site, and would be happy to go back again! Five stars! :)
