Secluded, peaceful. Two minute walk to spectacular views looking west at tidal flats, sunsets and private Bay water access.

The house centers around an inviting courtyard/patio, with a European feel, surrounded by a luscious and peaceful garden. Birds abound in this private property.

Newly renovated Master bedroom and bath with a large picture window and a new window so you can see the sky and tree tops while lying in bed. There is a wall air conditioner in the master bedroom. It could be used to cool off the other 2 bedrooms for sleeping. Full bathroom and kitchen. Large, newly completed outdoor shower with mahogany floor, bench and shelves. Room darkening shades available in bedrooms.

NOTE for 2025 season: My neighbor is rebuilding his home. It is likely that the property will be buttoned up by June 1, 2025. So, they will likely be working inside and it will be quieter.

Completely childproofed outlets with built-in USB ports to easily recharge your electronic devices. Soft outdoor lighting welcomes you down a wooded path and reflects off of the french lilac tree which arches over the outdoor shower.

The living room looks out to the courtyard and forest with wide, floor to ceiling sliding glass/screen doors. During the cooler months the large windows bring the outside in while you are cozy. However, the fireplace is out of service.

This is the perfect place to enjoy your friends or family and relax. Clean, tasteful and has comfortable beds, each with reading lights. Bunk room can accommodate the occasional extra guest.

Patio, Fireplace, 3 zone Weber Grill, Hammock for two, HD TV with basic Cable/Blue Ray player and Roku, High Speed Internet with WiFi, aux input to AM/FM Stereo, Washer/Dryer, modern kid safe outlets. Built in USB outlets in most rooms to charge your devices.

Fantastic, safe place for young (and old) children to enjoy the vast expanse of sand, shallow tidal pools, western sky and warm water. Note: at our private water access, there is beach available for 8 hours: four hours on either side of low tide. Campground beach, a 10 min walk away, has beach available in any tide.

Kayak put-in only a 10 minute walk to Campground Landing.

Five minute drive to North Eastham center with Ben and Jerry's, Arnolds, Mac's seafood, gourmet deli, shops, more.

Perfectly situated for easy access by car or bike to ocean beaches, Cape Cod Rail Trail, the National Seashore Center and Wellfleet Audubon Sanctuary.

Bonus for parents of small children: The backyard/ main outdoor living space is completely enclosed by a high, tasteful, wide perimeter fence. So, you can relax instead of worrying about your child wandering off the property.

Water Access: The private water access is a two minute walk via the quiet sandy lane of Westshore Drive accessed from the front of the house. We are six houses in from the water. So, if you forget something while you are at the beach, you can run back and forth to the house and beach in a jiffy.

More fun stuff: There are multiple, lounge chair floats with arm and back rests and a place for your beverage. When the tide is high, you can tie them onto nearby floating moorings to make your own flotilla near the private water access.

Note: The cleaners will apply sanitized pillow protectors with every turnover. However, they will replace mattress pad protectors or blankets only if soiled in any way.
The beds are supplied with mattress pad covers, pillow protectors and cotton blankets.
Tenants supply their own sheets and towels, bathmats, dish towels. Plastic wraps, bags, tin foil, parchment paper are supplied. Unfortunately, pets and pet visitors are not allowed in the house. My cleaner inspects the house for evidence of pets and takes pictures to show me. If the team finds evidence of a pet, she will charge me extra. I will deduct her fee from your security deposit. If a guest pet soils any part of the property, please remove it.

    Beautiful, peaceful garden cottage. Very tranquil spot to wake up each morning. Private yard surrounded by large trees and shrubs and happy birds. Great location to the bay beach. Quick bike ride to the rail trail. Easy drive to anywhere. The cottage was comfortable for 4 adults, more would be tight. Karen was thoughtful and thorough in her explanation of and guidelines property details. We brought our bikes and were able to store them in the shed. We found a very clean cottage upon arrival, (except for a sandy table on which we were about to dine.) I do suggest renters bring enough hand soap for bathrooms. Would happily stay here again in a heartbeat.

    Fantastic location! Private beach was very close and convenient, but no beach at high tide but can still swim. Campground beach very close to walk to also. Loved biking on the rail trail (and keeping bikes in shed) and easy walk to local coffee/sandwich and grocery shop called The Landing. Easy drives to Audobon preserve and visitor center at National Seashore and good Free programs there. Comfortable home with well stocked kitchen. Loved the outside shower.

    My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect, the host was lovely, and the house had all the amenities we needed and was extremely comfortable. We have stayed in numerous houses on the Outer Cape over the past 15 years and this was truly our favorite.

    This was our first time staying in Eastham, a family of 5 with three boys ages 7, 4 and 2 . The location was great for accessing the beach with the private beach less than a 5 minute walk and Campground Beach about 10 minutes. It should be noted that there is no/limited beach on the private beach 2-3 hours before and after high tide. For us high tide was 8am thru 1pm during our stay. We would spend our mornings at Campground Beach then venture over to the private beach where we could then easily break for lunch and come back. While there are some floats to hang out in during high tide, our kids are a bit too young. Our kids had a lot of fun in the tide pools and digging on the sand bars.There's a Cape Cod Rail Trail Parking lot 5 minutes away which gave us an opportunity to bike to Nauset Light House and Lecount Hollow Beach plus stop for lunch and ice cream.A rainy day found us at the Eastham Library which were running some activities for the kids. The kids room has a train table and play kitchen.The house has plenty of room and has everything you need for some time away. We picked up some fish and oysters at the local market. We made use of the grill and shucked the oysters ourselves since the kitchen made the tools avaliable.Our host Karen was great in communicating and answering questions we had about the area. All in all it was a great visit and we would consider visiting again in the future.

    Solid location by the beach in Eastham. Walking distance to a small private beach as well as Campground beach. Helps a lot with a small kid + crazy town parking fees. House was a little rustic for our tastes but overall it worked out for an early season getaway to Cape Cod.

    We loved our stay here! The beds were very comfortable, gardens peaceful, and kitchen very well stocked with anything you’d need for cooking. We walked to the bay each night for sunset and enjoyed many games at the big kitchen table. A lovely place to relax and enjoy the Cape!

    Beautiful cottage tucked away from the road only a short walk to beach. House is comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed to make some great meals. Chairs for the beach were used every day and we enjoyed the outdoor shower, pretty flowers in the yard and happy birds. Owner was incredibly helpful with problem we had with rented linens. Can’t wait to come back next year.
