Robert Morrill, or Moo as he has been called since moving to Wellfleet in 1974, has had a successful, 40-year career in the hospitality industry. In 1974, Moo, along with his life-partner, Judy Pihl, and another couple opened a small, French-style cafe, Sweet Seasons Restaurant, on Commercial Street. In 1980 they grew their business from the small café into two restaurants and a 27-room country inn when they purchased the historic Holiday House Inn at Duck Creeke on Main Street. Prior to moving to Wellfleet, Moo worked as a civil engineer.

Moo has served on the board of the Wellfleet Chamber of Commerce for 25 years and has been the Chamber’s president for the past 15 years. Moo and Judy became fascinated with the over 100-year history encapsulated within the iconic Duck Creeke buildings. Further, upon recently discovering through " Ancestry" that his grandmother was born on the Outer Cape (Orleans), Moo has become deeply fascinated with local history. Moo is a graduate of the College of Engineering at UMass Amherst with a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering.
