About this property

Charming & cozy Wellfleet cottage on quiet road 3/4 mile to beach.

sleeping porch with full-sized futon bed (1)
6 pillows, plenty of blanket and comforters (NO sheets or towels)

NO SMOKING

Enjoy our selection of classic board games and a small library featuring local cape authors. For those who don't want to fully unplug, we have WiFi Internet and an iPhone-compatible stereo. Our cottage sleeps 5 people, has a well-equipped kitchen, a screened-in porch, and a working fireplace for those cool evenings in late summer or early fall. There is a spacious outdoor shower, a deck, a charcoal and a gas grill and lovely perennial plantings and shady locust trees.

Our cottage is one of seven in a charming old Cape cottage community.

Our cottage is a short drive or bike-ride to a number of attractions including the Cape's last Drive-In Movie theater, live performances at the Wellfleet Harbor Actors Theater (W.H.A.T.), The Harbor Stage Theater, magnificent ocean beaches, the Audubon Sanctuary, the Rail Trail, fresh-water kettle ponds, live music at a number of restaurants and bars, the famous French pastries of P.B. Boulangerie and Bistro, and numerous galleries and restaurants of downtown Wellfleet.

If you ever want to leave Wellfleet, you are only a short 20 minute drive from Provincetown where you'll find art galleries, fishing, whale watching, restaurants, and night life.

Please Note: This indeed a cozy cottage. It is a small, rustic, efficiency cottage, only 600 square feet in total. The main bedroom has a queen-sized bed with about 20 inches around it on three sides. Neither of the bedrooms have closets, but there are plenty of hooks to hang clothes on. Many people feel our cottage reminds them of the old Cape, when things were simpler, smaller, more rustic. If you are looking for a new, large, shiny rental, this may not be your cup of tea. If you are looking for a charming throw back to an earlier simpler time, then our Cozy Cottage may be just the bit of old Cape Cod you've been dreaming of.

Excellent place to celebrate our anniversary.

My husband and I spent two weeks at the cozy cottage. (Last week of Sept thru the first week of Oct 2024). It was the perfect place for us to celebrate our 34th anniversary and Chris and Paul couldn't have been nicer. We loved everything about the cottage and our stay was most enjoyable. We highly recommend.

Ideal

We stayed here as a family of three in August ‘24. It fit our needs perfectly and we are already looking at coming back for next year. The house is so cute and well appointed - the kitchen, the cd and game collections, a gas and charcoal grill outside, a French press and a drip coffee maker, an outdoor shower, quality pots and pans. It really hit the spot for a relaxing week long get away. Thank you so much!

Quaint, cozy, and a home away from home!

This was a great place to stay. Easy access to beaches (and more), quiet and comfortable for sleeping, and full amenities. Loved it AND the outdoor shower! I will definitely book again.

We Loved It! Great cottage and location!

For those that know the area, this cottage was once one of the many cottages that line the bay shore in Truro, it was moved in the 1950's (along with others on the property) and expanded over the years. It more spacious than it seems in the pictures and would be a great place to book with a small group of friends. Everything was very clean and it's well stocked with many necessities. The owner was very responsive and friendly. We'll certainly be back (we've already discussed it, in fact). Lovely place in every regard!

Nice cozy cottage

The cottage is very nice, well equipped kitchen, comfortable furniture and beds. It is great for 2 people and a child. Outside shower works well- indoor shower needed some work which owner was going to address. Owners are very responsive- neighborhood very quiet!

Just what we needed

A short weekend on the outer cape, just before the crowds arrive. We couldn't have asked for a cuter, more well-equipped and designed cottage for a reprieve. We loved the outdoor shower and the kitchen set-up. A lovely and quiet place to visit, with so many opportunities for being near water or conservation land trails. Thank you!

Perfect cape cottage

We loved this simple, small cottage. Quaint and absolutely clean - great little deck and outdoor shower. Well equipped kitchen. Pure cape with no TV! Hooray! And quiet location with walking access to beach and drive to nearby attractions. Perfect for a couple - or couple with small child. Tiny rooms. We are definitely returning to this ‘find’ for a relaxing vacation.

Lovely Cottage

It truly is a cozy cottage, but light and open as well. We enjoyed the colors and fabrics of the furnishings. There are many ceiling lines, beams etc that make for interest wherever your eye rests. The two beds were perfectly comfortable. The futon not so much, but good for children. There's a lovely Wellfleet Conservation trail just up the road that meanders down to the marsh.

A great escape to Cape Cod.

This lovely cottage sits in a very quiet neighborhood just off of Highway 6 in Wellfleet, MA. You'll enjoy the night on a very private deck listening to crickets in the back yard. The cabin itself is well appointed with three sleeping areas, plus a pull out couch, an amazing outdoor shower, and a working fireplace for those cool Cape nights. You have quick access to several beaches on the ocean and bay side of Cape Cod. Forget the world if you want, wi-fi is available, but there is no TV to distract you from seals and sunsets on a variety of sandy beaches. This is one of the nicest places that I have stayed and I hope to come back soon.

Rustic meets Cozy and Comfortable

Cottage is exactly as advertised. It is an older renovated cottage with all you need for a comfortable stay. The location is off the main road and traffic was light to non-existent. Kitchen is more than adequate for prep needs and there is a large library of books and music to pick from. The lack of TV is not a problem unless you are truly addicted to the tube. In that case if you bring your laptop you can stream on the very good wifi. The owner was available for any questions we had and knowledgeable about the area. Great areas to watch sunsets are within minutes biking or driving. Wellfleet center is a short drive with small grocer, package store and its own restaurants and harbor area. Nice cottage, good owners and convenient location to P-town, Cape Cod National Seashore and Race Point Beach and dune areas. All Good.

Pros and Cons

PROS... Great location near beaches, trails, S Wellfleet. Very nicely decorated, cute great room space, well supplied with basics. CONS... We paid a cleaning fee despite fact that we left place “very tidy” ( owners words) Since they do their own cleaning, we felt that we should have been reimbursed since none was needed. Bedrooms- have no closets and are tiny. A larger person would not be able to walk around the bed in “master”. My husband kept his clothes on bed in second bedroom which was also very small. Grills- rusty/ dirty and therefore unusable.

Fabulous Wellfleet Cottage!

We had a terrific experience and feel very fortunate the dates of our vacation were available. The cottage is clean, cozy and well-equipped for all your cooking needs. Additionally, there is a terrific library in the living room. I spent my summers growing up in the Wellfleet area and returned every summer through graduate school. It’s an amazing part of the Cape! The cottage is well-located just off Route 6. The National Seashore beaches, Cape Cod bike trail, the iconic Wellfleet Drive-in and Audubon Sanctuary are a 10 minute drive away. Now living in Texas, I was also VERY excited to visit the new Dunkin Donuts located less than a mile from the cottage each morning before driving our 8-year-old son to the superb Audubon Children’s Camp each morning! The neighbors I interacted with were delightful. Lastly, on a side note, I was pleased to learn that the cottage owner is spearheading the local area campaign to discourage the use of plastic straws as it’s not only harmful to our environment, but to our sea creatures who ingest them. Everywhere we ate, such as Mac’s in both P-Town and Wellfleet, we thanked them for not using plastic straws or stirrers in our drinks. In summary, highly recommend staying here and suggest booking early! Gems like this are hard to find. Enjoy Wellfleet!!!!!

Quiet cottage in a perfect location

This cottage was a lovely, relaxing place to stay. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. A small cottage in a wooded, quiet area, though not far from several small cottages in the same complex. I was there by myself half the time and felt very safe and was then joined by a friend, and it was fine for two people. Loved the bike path nearby, the PB Boulangerie, and several of the beaches, and the hosts were friendly and responsive. A few caveats: while clean, the cottage felt like it hadn't had a thorough cleaning in a while; I was disappointed by the leftover fire waste in the fireplace, which stopped me from using it, and the difficulty with the indoor shower (if curtain is one inch out of place water goes all over floor). (The outdoor shower is great, but with no light in that shower it's hard to use at night). Overall, a great place (that could benefit from a little attention).

Great location, cute place, very affordable

This is a cute, cozy cabin for a small family or couple. It's well stocked with everything to have a good time. It would be fun to rent for a week in the summer. My only complaint is that linens and towels are not provided which, for us, was quite inconvenient since we flew in from the West Coast and arrived late on a Sunday evening.
