Gray Whale - 3 bedrm/2 bath/gameroom

Gray Whale is a serene 3-bedroom, 2-bath bayside retreat where Cape Cod’s fall colors meet golden shorelines. Just minutes from both bay and ocean beaches, it’s the perfect home base for sunset beach walks, cranberry harvest adventures, and quiet evenings under painted skies. Enjoy the fun game room, the roomy deck for morning coffee, and the open yard for lawn games beneath autumn light—all part of your fall escape with Heart of Cape Cod.

We respect the autonomy of our guests but are available by text, email, phone, carrier pigeon, smoke signal, yodeling, or Facetime

We are located bayside in a lovely neighborhood cul-de-sac. Very central to everything. Close to Cape Cod Rail Trail (bike trail), kettle ponds, ocean side Coast Guard and Nauset Light beach, Salt Pond Visitors Center, Eastham Windmill, and First Encounter beach.

Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac, yet perfectly positioned for adventure, the Gray Whale is your ideal Cape Cod summer retreat. This charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath home, brought to you by the Heart of Cape Cod, offers a prime central location, making it effortless to explore Eastham’s stunning beaches, scenic trails, and vibrant coastal towns.

Spend your days soaking up the sun on the bayside’s warm, gentle shores, just 1.4 miles away to famous Campground Beach (a breezy 7-minute bike ride), or 6 minutes (2.3 miles) to the breathtaking ocean waves of the Cape Cod National Seashore (a 12 minute bike ride). Whether you’re looking for tranquil tidepools or rolling surf, you’ll find your perfect beach just minutes away.

After a day in the sand and salt air, return to the Gray Whale’s inviting outdoor space—fire up the gas grill on the deck, rinse off in the refreshing outdoor shower, or challenge your crew to a round of cornhole in the expansive yard. As the sun sets, head out to one of the many top-rated restaurants just minutes away, where you can savor the freshest seafood, farm-to-table fare, and classic Cape Cod flavors. Not sure where to go? No worries, we provide all the best recommendations for where to go and what to see with each reservation.

Inside, the home is designed for comfort and ease. A fully stocked kitchen with breakfast bar and dining room has everything you need for a snack on the go or a lobster boil. The stylish and comfortable living room is perfect for curling up with a good book or settling in for a movie on the large screen streaming TV. The first-floor bedroom and full bath provide a convenient option for guests with mobility needs, while the two additional bedrooms and second full bath upstairs offer space and privacy for the whole group. With all linens provided, a washer and dryer, and parking for 2-3 cars, every detail is in place for a stress-free getaway.

Beyond Eastham, Gray Whale’s central location puts you within easy reach of Cape Cod’s most charming villages, from the historic streets of Provincetown to the quaint boutiques of Chatham. Explore scenic bike trails, embark on a whale-watching tour, or browse local farmers' markets—your Cape Cod adventure starts here.
