Route 6A, which cuts through this 429-acre property, neatly divides it into two sections, each with its own character. 
The portion to the north of Route 6A, dubbed the "Mansion," takes its name from the Nickerson Family Mansion and Carriage House, a sprawling structure that dates to 1912 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. To the south, the resort encompasses a collection of neighborhoods dubbed "Villages." Distributed across the property are 11 hard and clay tennis courts, an 18-hole Jack Nicklaus golf course, a private beach, half a dozen swimming pools—two of them indoors—two fitness centers, and a spa treatment room. What's more, the 22-mile Cape Cod Rail Trail Bike Path cuts through the resort on its way to the Cap Cod National Seashore and Provincetown.

There are two staffed tennis complexes: Bay Pines on the Mansion side, which has five Har-Tru courts, and Fletcher Village, which has four hard courts (there are another two hard courts at Britterige Village). Activity abounds at both locations in summer. The weekly rosters include a variety of clinics, advanced workouts focusing on the modern game and critiques of match play, workouts with the pros, boot camps, social round robins, happy hours, and game matching. A series of junior clinics is offered at both complexes as well.
Beach. Guests staying on the Mansion side have access to 700 feet of private beach; for others there are the private beaches of Brewster and, of course, Cap Cod National Seashore.
Golf Courses. The resort has Cape Cod's only Jack Nicklaus-designed golf, a challenging 18-hole layout open only to resort guests and members..
Spa & Fitness Center. The main fitness center is at the Mansion, adjacent to its indoor pool (there's a cardio room on the villages side). It has Precor ellipticals, treadmills, and exercycles as well as Precor multi-station strength training equipment and free weights. Also available is a multi-function Icarian trainer, said to help with tennis and golf swings. The resort also stages fitness classes, including Pilotes, there and in the adjacent indoor pool.
And ... Bikes are available for rent to better take advantage of the Cape Cod bike trail.
During the summer, the Ocean EdgeVenture provides supervised activities and games for kids ages 4 to 12 six days a week. There's also a jam-packed weekly calendar of activities for the whole family, including sand volleyball, bingo, movie nights at the Arbor pool.
The Mansion side has 90 hotel rooms, each with a bay or garden view and furnished in updated Cape Cod style, and a group of 2- and 3-bedroom kitchen-equipped villas nestled in the trees near the bay. On the Villages side you can choose from 1-, 2-, or 3-bedroom villas, also with full kitchens.
Ocean Edge has half-a-dozen places to eat or drink, ranging from the Ocean Terrace at the Mansion with its sweeping views of the bay to Snack Cabanas in various locations, including the golf course and poolside.
