About the Innkeepers

Your hosts, John and Lisa, met in high school over 40 years ago and their love for each other included a mutual love for Cape Cod. With young children and a tight budget, they rented small cabins for short summer stays in Falmouth.

Eventually, they rented larger houses in East Orleans before finally graduating to a house of their own in Eastham in 2007 which was their summer home and year long weekend destination for relaxation before purchasing The Tern Inn in 2021.

Now approaching our third season we are more excited than ever. We continue to upgrade the property and rooms as well as adding surprising amenities.
