Plymouth (Mass.) -- Guidebooks
One-half mile to the east is White Horse Beach which, during the past
few years, has developed into a large summer colony. The beach between
White Horse and Manomet Point affords excellent bathing, and boats with
tackle for sea fishing are readily obtainable.
Nearby to the south is Hotel Mayflower, and at the “Point” below, the
Manomet Coast Guard Station. Manomet Village lies to the west, and on
the bluff overlooking the bay is Hotel Idlewild (formerly the Barstow
House).
Southward stretch wide acres of fields and meadows, hills and vales
dotted here and there by farms and gardens, a variation of landscape
that is typical of New England. Hundreds of acres devoted to cranberry
culture may be seen from the highway, an indication of the high state of
development this industry has reached.
From many points of vantage along the entire shore, coastwise traffic
via the Cape Cod Canal may be seen heading north and south.
The Town of Plymouth is fortunate in having this wide expanse of
adaptable terrain within its confines. The entire area with its scenic
beauty, its woods, its lakes, its bay, its beaches, its rocks, its
foliage and flowers, is a natural heritage, which, combined with man’s
handiwork, is becoming more and more inviting, not only as a haven of
rest and recreation, but as the ideal American homesite.
