Historians are divided as to the exact date on which this eloquent example of Queen Anne Victorian architecture appeared in the village of Harwichport on Cape Cod. Turn of the century is close enough; the building's appeal comes from its conical turrets and its wrap-around porch, not its birthday. 

Banker Augustus C. Snow was well past middle age when he had the house built. Little did he dream that the horse-drawn vehicles clopping along the quiet street would give way to the busy summer traffic of today. Nor was he likely to have foreseen his house becoming "one of the Cape's most elegant and exclusive inns, catering to a small number of discerning guests." Fine lodging, weddings, private receptions, and afternoon teas prove the Augustus Snow House to be a multi-faceted gem.
