Tennis, horseback riding and just plain horsing around abound. In Massachusetts, the best and most varied golf is on Cape Cod, with many of its 50 courses having public access. En route at Orleans, don't miss the Old Jailhouse Tavern and try the chicken potpie. This could be of special interest because of proximity, and some of these places can be linked with others on shorter trips than a single-destination vacation. Starting in Ohio, a good day-tripper is to Maumee Bay State Park in Oregon, just 20 minutes east of Toledo.
Camping is available.
Not everything in Indiana pertains to basketball or even football, if you're in the South Bend area. Packages are available. The splendid Bridge layout is 20 minutes from the river-oriented activity and entertainment of Louisville, Ky. Illinois is not fabled as a golf destination, but nice places to play are available, especially if you desire to tie in a Chicago visit. Possibly the No. 1 complex in the area is Cog Hill at Lemont with four public courses, featuring Dub's Dread, home of the Western Open.
