What a sweet cozy rental that has historic home vibes. Found down the end of little lane with charming homes nearby. Easy walk to Wellfleet center. Surrounded by birdsong. A bit of a marsh view from the bedroom window. Everything available. Very tall folks will find the ceiling a bit low on the stairs to the bedroom. Would definitely stay again

Sorry for the low ceilings...it's a 200-year-old converted barn.. I guess people were shorter .

The cottage was great. The photographs and description don't do it justice. The upstairs bedroom has a large comfortable bed. And is a large space with closet and dresser. The kitchen is small but complete. We cooked virtually every night. The washer and dryer are new and worked great. Robert is terrific. Responsive and friendly. The location was perfect.

Perfect Spot for Small Family!

Robert’s cottage was perfect for my husband, my two year old daughter and myself. The location can’t be beat and we walked and/or biked into town, restaurants, the beach and the park multiple times during our stay. Thank you again!

Wellfleet Get away

I enjoyed my stay……comfortable and quiet. My only frustration was the WiFi…..I often had to stand next to the door adjoining the main property to get a WiFi signal…..a router in the Air B and B space would be very helpful. Otherwise, everything went seamlessly…..

We are sorry that Martha had problems with the internet. Connectivity is often an issue on the Outer Cape. We have had the cable company come various times. We will try again so out future guests don't have the same frustration. I am happy to give Martha some refund for her troubles.

Great Spot in Town

We really liked Robert’s place. Just big enough, the location was great for walking, cycling and driving and the kitchen was well equipped. The bed was comfy, the shower was excellent and there was some wonderful art on the wall. For us the only drawback was the couch which we tended to sink into and found difficult to extract ourselves from.

Perfect cottage and location

The cottage is immaculate, easy to navigate, beautiful, and quiet. A hummingbird visits the honeysuckle vine out the window. The location makes everything in Wellfleet easily accessible. The cottage offers a classic, comfortable, and relaxing vibe, and Robert is an attentive and helpful host. We loved it!

Magical cottage in Wellfleet

We had the loveliest time in Wellfleet. Our group included myself, my husband and almost two-year-old and it was perfect for us. The cottage was cozy, well-appointed and had everything we needed. It’s located on a quiet road and walking distance from town. We loved our stay here, thank you for the hospitality!

Jaehyun and family were delightful. Two young enthusiastic children who seemed to be having a great time. I had a few conversations with Jaehyun who is friendly and engaging. The cottage was spotless when they left. I hope they come back next summer.

About the host

Hosted by Robert Shreefter

Host profile image

My wife and I are long-time residents of Wellfleet.
We are both university faculty.
I am also an artist and enjoy being surrounded by the beauty of the outer Cape-- and by artists and galleries.
We just bought this house 5 years ago. For many years, we rented our previous Wellfleet home to visitors.
This past summer, we opened our own gallery--Off Main Gallery--at 326 Main Street, rear. This is behind the Chocolate Sparrow and Nice Cream Shop. We show the work of many local artists.

Why they chose this property

This property is in town and doesn't require crossing Route 6 to get to town, to ocean and bay beaches and ponds. Also, the center of town is a 5-minute walk from our quiet lane.
We are off Briar Lane, and the house is secluded.
The view out the bedroom window is breathtaking. There is a meadow and a wet land beyond that. You can watch the sun set from the window.
There is a very private patio out the back door of the living room.
Simple but beautiful furnishings and original artwork.

What makes this property unique

This is an ideal place for a writer, and artist that needs a quiet and secluded place. Ideal for a couple--and has a queen-size bed upstairs and futon for child/children, downstairs
