About this property
Waterfront Cottage on Private Pond minutes from the Ocean and Bay
Welcome to your perfect Eastham getaway—an inviting waterfront cottage nestled among towering pines and just steps from a private sandy beach on beautiful Minister’s Pond. This peaceful 25‑acre freshwater pond is ideal for swimming, boating, fishing, and simply soaking up the sunshine. Whether you’re planning a family vacation, a couples’ retreat, or a quiet escape, this cozy cottage offers the charm of classic Cape Cod with the comforts of home.
A Cozy Cottage With Everything You Need This one‑of‑a‑kind cottage accommodates up to four guests and is thoughtfully designed to make the most of its space. Both bedrooms feature comfortable beds with built‑in storage, and the main living area includes a futon for additional sleeping space. After a day outdoors, cool off with the cottage’s air conditioning or unwind on the spacious deck overlooking the peaceful pond.
Prefer to relax indoors? The three‑season screened‑in porch is a guest favorite—open the windows, sip your morning coffee at the bar tables, and enjoy the breeze drifting through the pines. The full bath includes a convenient walk‑in shower, and the fully equipped kitchenette makes it easy to prepare everything from a simple breakfast to a classic Cape Cod lobster dinner. A private parking spot and a short wooden walkway make access simple and convenient.

The Best of the Outer Cape at Your Doorstep This location puts you right in the heart of the Outer Cape. In just 10 minutes, you can reach Eastham’s ocean beaches, the calm shores of Cape Cod Bay, or the breathtaking Cape Cod National Seashore.
A few minutes down the road, Orleans offers grocery stores, pharmacies, shops, and a wide variety of restaurants. Head the other direction to Wellfleet to explore its lively pier, grab fried clams or a lobster roll at a classic walk‑up stand, or browse the charming town center. Don’t miss the famous Wellfleet Drive‑In for movies under the stars or the seasonal flea market.
If you’re up for a short scenic drive, Provincetown is just 30 minutes away—bursting with art galleries, unique shops, great food, and vibrant energy. A whale‑watching trip from MacMillan Pier is an unforgettable experience and one of our family’s favorite Cape traditions.
A Place to Make Memories Our families have been coming to the Cape for more than 50 years, and now we bring our children to enjoy the same unspoiled beaches and timeless charm. We’re delighted to share this special place with you. Come relax, explore, and create memories that will stay with you long after your vacation ends.
