About this property
Bright & Updated Cottage Across the Street from Beach
This cute & cozy cottage is just 350 yards to the beach! Light, bright and airy with cathedral ceiling and skylight. The National Seashore beaches & hiking trails at the end of our street (3 min. drive) are spectacular and some of the most secluded on the Cape! The cottage is 370 sq ft, 2 bedrooms & main living area with kitchenette and there is a picnic table & BBQ grill on the front patio. There is one bathroom with a shower only. Sheets and towels are not included.
The National Seashore beaches at the end of the street are spectacular. They are on Cape Cod Bay so the waves are not as big as ocean side beaches but the water is warmer (and that's important, if you actually want to go in the water!) Great Island (a peninsula that's part of the National Seashore) at the end of our street allows you to hike through dunes and pine forests and find your own deserted piece of beach - a rarity on cape cod! The shops, art galleries, restaurants, drive-in movies and proximity to Provincetown, make Wellfleet the best town on the Cape for an incredible summer vacation!
Our rentals run Saturday to Saturday. You must supply your own linens, towels and paper products.

One of our favorite places to stay! We love the convenience to everything…town, beaches, ponds and beautiful sunsets. Many childhood memories for our family here.
The cottage was exactly as advertised, and we had a great stay. It's especially nice that the cottage is placed in such a way that it feels fairly private even though it's close to other homes. And the hosts were terrific!
The cottage was very clean and tidy when we got there. Cottage itself is super cute and relatively private compared to the other cottages. Area was super nice and a short walk to the beach.
Just a nice place to go for a few days to relax. Thank you so much for being flexible with the check out time, that was such a huge help. This was just what we needed.
We have a lovely stay here. The cottage is small but is comfortable and has most everything you may need. Great location, a short walk to Mayo Beach and a long walk or short bike ride to Wellfleet Center and Mac's on the pier. Peter and Yaz were great, friendly and responsive. We would definitely consider staying here again.
Having spent summers in Wellfleet all my life it was so great to be able to share the experience with my family. Peter and Yaz’s cottage was just what we needed! It’s cozy but not cramped. It has everything you need for a getaway. Thank you!
My 3rd year at this location. I have nothing bad to say. It’s the perfect
Cape Cod cottage, reasonably price, great location, easy access to everything you want to do.
Highly recommended..!
Back in the 60’s, my parents would always rent the same cute little cottage in Wellfleet.
I loved going there, and had great memories.
I couldn’t remember the name of the cottages, but the photos made me think it was the same place…
And it is the same place! I was thrilled when I drove up to it and my memory was correct.
I was even one cottage away from the one my family always rented. So happy it is still here for people to enjoy.
Had a great weekend there.
A cute little cottage perfect for 2, may be crowded for 4. Very clean except for the 2 carpets. Very well equipped for cooking. Very nice hosts who care for tenants. The cottage is very close (50 feet) to a busy road even in September. We had a very pleasant time despite hurricane Lee.
Nice little cottage, on a quaint winding back road. Short bike ride to the beach and town. Surrounded by mature trees so there's always shade. The air conditioner and ceiling fan were appreciated on the hot days but we just opened the windows on most days to let the Cape breeze blow through. Yaz & Pete were very responsive when we couldn't figure out the TV. We had a delightful week.
Nice little place perfect for 2 people. Love how the living room feels spacious. Hammock is great!
The bedrooms are really tiny and my partner and I ended up sleeping in separate rooms because a double bed really was too small for us, especially with no space to get out of bed if you are against the wall. But in had a great stay and found it clean and cozy.
It might be “across the street from thee beach” but you can’t see any beach view at all. It’s a 15 minute walk to beach access on the bay.
We were VERY appreciative of the AC, as it was incredibly muggy and we would have suffered without it. Thanks!
This cottage is charming, exactly as described. It is very close to town (but be advised Wellfleet lacks sidewalks and shoulders on many of the streets as soon as you get out of the center of town, so not advised to walk to town if you have children in tow). I appreciated the heating and air conditioning, though it was rarely needed. The cottage is small but laid out in such a smart way that it is easy to stow suitcases (the beds are raised so I put them underneath). It is just fine in size for 2 people, might be cramped unless you're used to a tiny house for 3 or 4. Great Island is a a hidden gem for walking trails and the ocean, and only a mile and a half from the cottage. The owners responded instantly to my questions. I used the hammock, picnic table, kitchen appliances, really everything and it was all in good working order and clean as a whistle. I had such a wonderful sense of place and history here. Already plotting a return next year.
Cute, clean cottage in Wellfleet aka the best place on Earth. It should be noted the beach “across the street” is private, not accessible, and not visible (at least during the summer). Cottage sits first on the road so there are no cottages in front of you which is nice but the road is busy/loud all hours of the day and night. Cottages are very close together so there is NO expectation of privacy. A nosey male neighbor in #2 was snooping around our cottage peering thru our windows, face against the glass, opening the back door to rummage through our storage area. It was AWKWARD and they were terribly loud. The outdoor shower is NOT connected to the cottage rather it’s communal…..you have to walk across the parking lot, down a path and it’s a double shower with old planks you can see right through to the other person and/or the parking lot. Expect to wait in line. Indoor shower is TINY. Minimal storage space for food/supplies/clothes but we made it work! Overall we had a wonderful vacation. Yaz & Peter are great. If the cottage had a private, attached outdoor shower and my friends were staying in #2, I would consider coming back.
Charming, clean cottage was perfect for myself and a friend. We each had our own bedroom and could enjoy the small indoor space, patio, and hammock. The location is perfect! Close to both the harbor and the downtown. I had a fantastic week!
