"My fiancé & I spent a day last weekend in Ipswich...off season best time to enjoy this beautiful beach! Fabulous boardwalks lead down to the cleanest softest sands. Although too cold to swim, the beautiful surf and long coastline makes it extra special. And there are trails leading over and aroun..."d the most amazing dunes. Some you can climb while others need to be respected due to coastal erosion. Nonetheless these trails are not easy due to the soft sand so they're quite a workout! I highly recommend spending a little more to experience a real summer beach day here.

"This is an amazing experience / estate / reservation..............The house is open for the season, and we were able to tour on the first day. Not only is the house amazing, but the ground are absolutely drop dead gorgeous.
It is DEFINITELY worth the price of the guided tour. Better yet, join ..."the Trustees of Reservations and support preservation efforts...The details of the story of the Cranes, from Chicago,is so interesting, but when you think that the family stayed at this home only 6-8 weeks during the summer, the story only becomes more intriguing!
If you have time, walk the grounds, take the stroll down the Allee.....it is just incredible.
My suggestion is to make a day of it.......get there early, take the tour.....take a lunch break, then go to the nearby Crane Beach. Any way you do it, just go..........it is truly fantastic!

"Great beach and worth the money for the day if you're not from the area...nice boardwalks onto clean, soft white sands for miles. When the tide is out there are sandbars to walk out to. Very nice facilities. Dunes make it fun as well! Great time of year to go when it's quiet!"
