The Post & Beam Cottage ~ Perfect Retreat near Great Pond & Cahoon Hollow Beach

Adorable cedar shingled post & beam house ready and waiting for you on the Oceanside in Wellfleet, Cape Cod.

Over 1,000 square feet of crystal clean space - Sleeps 4, Queen Bed and 2 Twins upstairs. Our Cottage has a full kitchen, bathroom and living room plus a beautiful bonus 3-season room with vaulted ceilings and a queen sofa pull out. This lovely room provides a great respite, enjoy the crosswinds and the view of the magical forest. The house has comfortable beds, fixtures, stocked kitchen and everything you need to relax and have fun.1.9 mile to Cahoon Hollow Beach and 1.5 miles to Great Pond.

This Cottage is a perfect retreat for a romantic getaway, perfect for a young family/couple with 2 children, writer's getaway to focus on crafting that novel or retirees who seek quiet, peace and calm.

Rare opportunity to experience Wellfleet and enjoy all that this gem of a town offers - the ocean, the ponds, wonderful art galleries, awesome food, entertainment and incredible days filled with sun, surf and relaxation.

Wonderful centralized location - easy access to Wellfleet's best beaches and freshwater ponds. Located two miles from the Atlantic Ocean and one mile from Cape Cod Bay. Enjoy a short walk to Dyer Pond, a secluded kettle pond. Great Pond is 1.5 mile and Cahoon Hollow Beach is 1.9 miles, just a bike ride away. Just a short walk into town to Wellfleet Center via Pine Point Road over to Uncle Tim's Bridge. Central location gives great access to ocean, ponds, bay and bike paths.

Wellfleet is a small village on Cape Cod known for its many art galleries and beautiful beaches. The beaches and glacial freshwater ponds are part of the Cape Cod National Seashore. In addition, there is a natural harbor in Wellfleet where boats can be rented and sports fishing is available. The town has many fine restaurants and there are two summer actors theaters and a very active arts community. Another wonderful attraction is the Wellfleet Drive-In Theater which has been entertaining six generations of summer visitors.
