Our
web site is really moving along! Thank you all for your patience. It
may never be finished because we have so many ideas for pages and links
to add, as time allows, in order to provide information that will help
plan your vacation and add to your enjoyment and comfort once you
arrive. Our web site is divided into sections that will help you plan
your trip and choose a rental. Please bookmark the site and visit us
occasionally to see what we've added. Below is an index of the web
site's main areas.
Please
note: As with many non-membership web sites, if you return to our site
after previously visiting it, especially if you bookmark it, you may
get your own computer 's internally stored version when it first
opens and need to use your "Refresh" button. This is more important in
a case such as ours because the site is changing daily while it is
under construction.
Our
web site should be comfortably visible however your computer is set
up. However, because of our use of charts, I find our site
is best viewed on the "smaller" text size. It was also
designed to be viewed on the "medium" setting. In the horizontal
list at the top of the screen (File->Edit->View...), click View,
then Text Size and your preferred choice. Another setting which I
find helpful is Graphic Options. Right-click any empty space on
your monitor screen (outside of an open window), then click
Graphic Options, Panel Fit, and your choice of three
settings. I prefer Maintain Aspect Ratio.
* The Contact Us button will take you to a page with our phone number, mailing address, hours, and directions to the office.
* This Index section will give you an overall view of where our buttons will lead you.
*
The Rentals button takes you to an alphabetical list of all of our
rental properties and contains a brief description of each cottage
along with the in-season rates and the dates available. This was the
main page of our original temporary web site and we have been asked to
keep it for the benefit of those who want to choose a rental by seeing
its amenities. Click any owner's name to see that web page.
*
The Dates and Rates button offers two main options. Click the Vacancies
link to scroll a calendar and see which cottages are available by
starting date. Click the Rates link to choose a rental within your
price range. At the bottom of each are links to move between them. We
suggest you print the Rates page as a reference and check-list for
visiting the other pages. Again, the owner's name is a link to the
complete description and picture(s).
*
The Locations button is best used after you have narrowed your choices,
as each link goes to an Internet map for an individual property. Click
the Locations button from any owner's page and view as many map links
as desired; there are return links to any owner's page. Each of our
listings also has a link to its own local sketch-map.
*The
Sales page is a link to our residential sales specialist, Pam
Carlo, whose office shares our building. This page has
information about contacting her; you may also e-mail her directly
or visit her web site from the page.
*The
Blog button is a link to our office magazine. This has articles, tips,
and other information about the area or your vacation needs. Some
subjects are dial up access numbers, newspaper links, poetry, and
recipes.
*Clicking the E-Mail button will present you with a re-addressed blank e-mail directed to our rental people.
*
We have several buttons now under construction which will have
information of interest to people who are looking for a
rental. A Memos/Promos button will lead to informational
notices of immediate interest or concern as well as promotions such as
discounts for last-minute rentals. We may also invite local businesses
to post notes here. It will act as our bulletin board.
Other buttons may make their appearance by season or subject. We
are working on one for Indian Summer, a special time on Cape Cod.
