About this property

Magical Reno'd Barn on 5.5 acres, Organic Gardens, Quiet, Secluded Pine Forest

This magical barn, located in the serene Wellfleet woods is a respite & unlike other rentals. Nestled in a pine forest, surrounded by Nat'l Seashore, this 5+ acres estate, w/ organic gardens has a large yard with an ample deck on the edge of the woods. You can walk or cycle to the nearby bay beach, kettle pond or Herring River estuary. Located close to some of the most secret & secluded beaches around. It is 1.7 miles to the 5 star library & 2 miles from the center of town. Bound Brook Island Road (the back road to Truro) is spectacular for walking, running or biking, with many diverging paths to explore.
You can rent bikes, kayaks, SUP boards or canoes close by.
Guests consistently share their excitement about our gorgeous property & are happy to let us know this place is 'so much sweeter and cleaner than their last rental!'
There are places close by to indulge in yoga, a sweaty workout, meditative walk through the woods or early morning beach stroll. A one week stay will wet your whistle & have you pining for a return visit.
Owners live next door but guests will experience privacy & quiet during their stay.
NO PETS, thank you!

We really enjoyed our stay. The peaceful location was the best part. We were able to have windows open to enjoy the breeze and sounds of birds (even a Whip-poor-will!), and dine on the deck. Lisa and Deidre were great, and gave us suggestions on some great local places to check out. Bed and pillows were very comfy too. A great base to explore the trails and beaches of the Cape. We'll definitely return!

Great Stay

I am a returning guest to this property. It checks all the boxes for me. It gives me that Old Cape feeling. The Barn has the necessary creature comforts, it clean, practical, bed is comfortable, space is colorful, and has a great outdoor shower. I love that the property tucked into the woods but still close to town and beaches.

Beautiful, peaceful location

If you're looking for a beautiful, quiet place to stay near the National Seashore, look no further. This renovated barn is tucking in the woods off a winding road, just next door to the owner's home. Deirdre was lovely to communicate with. Great place to use as a jumping off point for exploring beaches, trails, towns, and kettle ponds.

Perfect for family of 4

My husband, myself and our 2 daughters (9, and 15) stayed for 3 nights. The location is perfect. A quick 20-30 min drive in either direction provides plenty of beaches to explore and a day trip to Provincetown. We also road our bikes out to We had a blast! The owners are very welcoming and made us feel comfortable immediately. Would definitely recommend and look forward to returning!

Delightfully artsy

Owners were welcoming and responsive. Renovated barn had many whimsical touches and great artwork. Open design had its pluses and minuses; once one person is up and about, it isn't conducive to others sleeping. Beautiful, secluded location but transportation needed to get places. Wellfleet's beaches and village were wonderful to explore.

A special place to stay

The renovated barn was clean, airy, artsy, comfortable and had everything we needed for a wonderful week in Wellfleet. The convenient location allowed us to explore new beaches and hiking spots while still enjoying a calmer part of the Cape. But this is a place that offers far more than the basics. It is located on a quiet wooded property with long Cape Cod history with gardens, a nearby secluded beach and pond and warm welcoming owners. This is not just a rental, it is a special experience that you won’t find elsewhere. So glad we discovered it and hope we’ll be able to return again!

A hidden gem

We have been coming to Wellfleet for years staying on the bay or near the ponds. This simple and tastefully renovated barn was a comfortable abode with everything we needed to enjoy a relaxed stress-free week on vacation. And it was in a part of Wellfleet we had never explored - we found new ponds, new beaches and a quiet that felt far from the madding crowd of Route 6. Totally lovely. In addition, there was a feeling of community that the owners created and nurtured while respecting our privacy that was unique in our Cape experience.

Serenity

It’s our second stay within a year. Two different seasons; summer and fall. Both were perfect. The house (a renovated barn) is so comfortable with a certain personality. The back deck includes a grill and table. Two steps down from the side deck and there is a fire pit. There are back roads to walk that will lead you to the water, if you up for some dunes. It’s a quiet and most peaceful setting for anyone to relax.

A Slice of Heaven

This beautifully renovated barn is the perfect place if you want peace and serenity and yet be closed to town, beautiful beaches and restaurants. The home is very well equipped with everything you would need and the hosts were outstanding. We were there as the tropical storm moved up the coast and Deirdre was so thoughtful and provided us with everything we might need if we lost power. Luckily that didn’t happen. Highly recommend this rental and would return to Wellfleet in a heartbeat. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Location, location!

The location is to die for. The located is in a quiet area of Wellfleet; the grounds were very pretty and very quiet. Communication was very good. We actually forgot a bike pump and Deirdre arranged for us to pick it up 2 months later. Thank you. Unfornunately, though, we didn't find out until 5 days before our visit that we had to thoroughly clean the rental before we left. Also, the bedrooms do not have doors on them.

A Real Gem

This is a wonderful, meticulously maintained renovated barn tucked away in the woods. The owners are very responsive and lovely people who live in the main house on the property, so that they are accessible without being intrusive. I’ve been renting in Wellfleet for 30 years, and this is one of the very best houses I’ve stayed in. It is perfect for a family with one or two young children or for a single or couple.

Quaint & Quiet in Wellfleet

We stayed here for 4 nights/5 days. The host was very welcoming and answered any questions we had before & during the trip. The property is set back away from the busy road and is quiet and peaceful. The barn itself was very clean, the beds were very comfy and linens/towels provided were great. It was stocked with everything you need. Wifi was great. Since we stayed early June, with the windows open it was super comfortable all day long and we didn't even need a fan. We would definitely return.

Why they chose this property

This is a generational, historical family property.
Purchased as a 200 acre parcel in the early 1950's, most of it was sold by the owners in the early 1960's to help establish the CCNS.
Located near the historic Atwood Higgins House on Bound Brook Island, this an a part of Wellfleet that many visitors never see. It is like walking back in time to when Cape Cod was unexplored by most visitors.
In the early days of ownership when this barn housed horses, they kicked up arrowheads in the yard. The (Harvard) Peabody Museum confirmed that the property was once in habited by local natives.
The feeling of the property's origin story still saturates the location.
When you experience staying here, you'll understand this description.
The owners love to share this private, sacred piece of Wellfleet.

What makes this property unique

This home is located on the meandering, quiet, quintessential, old Cape Cod, back road to Truro. You can avoid the summer traffic in every direction. From our driveway you can get to the bay, kettle pond, bike ride, walk, town, library, shop, out to eat & golf, all while avoiding the Route 6 traffic. You never have to take a left turn onto Route 6!
You can walk to the bay on a sandy, old time Cape Cod road.
Quiet & calm await your arrival!
