In 1998, the resort hosted its inaugural tented wedding on the stunning shore of Nantucket Sound, marking the beginning of numerous memorable, iconic events. Bob ensured every part of the events were seamless, even personally catering every wedding for the subsequent five years. It was clear that hosting premier events and caring for guests with exceptional passion became Bob's great "labor of love." Over a decade, Bob began to transform the Pelham House into an unparalleled event and vacation destination, setting a new standard across Cape Cod.
In 2007, Bob sold the Pelham House to a development group, with himself and John stepping into the role of General Managers. Under the development group, the Pelham House evolved with renovations and updates while maintaining its esteemed reputation for exceptional weddings and memorable guest experiences.
Still, the McCarthys couldn't help but think that there was untapped potential lying in the growing resort.
