Wine Lover's Festival

June 1 - 4, 2008

Join us at the Whalewalk Inn as we celebrate the first annual Cape Cod Life Food and Wine Festival. You can attend all the festivities and settle back at the Inn for a relaxing stay.

As part of your stay you can shop and buy your favorite wines at The Windmill Liquor Store. They offer a 20% discount on case sales -- and the best part is that you can mix your choices to fill the case -- champagne also may be included.
