About this Location

Facility Overview

The car park situated at 512 MA-28 in West Yarmouth, Massachusetts, provides expansive open-air surface parking on the bustling Route 28 corridor. Serving as the primary parking facility for the Cape Cod Family Resort and adjacent attractions such as the Cape Cod Inflatable Park, this ground-level asphalt lot offers straightforward navigation and generous space. Because the facility is entirely open-sky without overhead structural decks or parking garage ceilings, there are no vertical clearance limits. This open design makes it exceptionally accommodating for standard passenger cars, minivans, full-size SUVs, pickup trucks, and taller recreational vehicles or high-roof passenger vans exploring Mid-Cape Cod.

Visitor & Driver Tips

During the peak summer season (July and August), Route 28 experiences substantial tourist congestion between 11:00 AM and 4:00 PM; planning morning arrivals or early evening departures will significantly reduce transit times. If you are towing a small trailer, boat, or traveling in an oversized camper, contact on-site management in advance to confirm designated perimeter parking spots. Ensure vehicles are properly locked and valuables are stowed out of sight when spending extended days at the beach or water parks.
