Additional fees to expect are a $230 check-in (for cleaning/linens) or $180 if you bring your own linens. You can fly in but really, the ferry is the way to go. People are $33 per adult round trip and if you bring a car, that is $380 round trip. If you get to Hyannis via separate cars there is a parking lot there for @$5/day. You can leave the car(s) on the mainland and rent bikes, mopeds or cars on the island itself. The McKinneys will invite you to their home to give you all the particulars before you depart.
