Cape Cod Cottage, Short Walk to Wequaquet Lake Private Beach and Cranberry Bogs

Welcome to Cranberry Hollow Cottage, A three bedroom, two bath cottage on an acre of land just steps from our private neighborhood beach on the east-side of Wequaquet Lake cove that gives you sun all day and photo-worthy, spectacular sunsets.

This property is family owned, not corporate owned.

This recently updated 1100 sq ft family cottage in Centerville, MA gives you a taste of everything that we love about Cape Cod. It was originally built in the 1940s and has a newly renovated kitchen, bathrooms, mudroom, updated bedrooms and living areas and a large Weber gas grill and outdoor dining area.

We recently fenced in the back yard with wire fencing and two cedar wood two-door swinging gates.

The house is in a neighborhood known for walkers, friendly faces walking dogs, pushing baby carriages or simply exercising in the fresh air.

In addition to a deeded rights to a neighborhood private beach, a unique feature we offer with this house is access to a walking trail around cranberry bogs. Follow the short woodland trail out the back of the property to a cranberry bog with a dirt road that takes you around two functional bogs full of growing cranberries.<br /> <br /> Then grab your beach towels and walk down the street for a quick dip in a lake or spend the day on the beaches along a pretty little cove via our deeded lakeside beach rights. No need to pack a car, just a short walk from the front door. (We love to spend mornings at the ocean and finish the day on the lake, the best of both worlds are nearby!)<br /> <br /> Have a boat on a trailer? Cranberry Hollow is less than a mile from the public boat landing on Wequaquet Lake. Wequaquet is known for almost year-round bass fishing, and in the warm weather, sailboats and power boats share the lake. Jet skis are not permitted to be launched from the public landing unless they are kept by lakefront owners.<br /> <br /> This property is located halfway between North Side and South Side Cape Cod public ocean beaches. The famous "Southside" beach on Nantucket Sound, Craigville Beach, is 10 minutes away and the beautiful "Northside" Sandy Neck beach on Sandy Neck Conservation area is 15 minutes away. Hop on the Mid-Cape Highway and you are one hour from the stunning beaches at the Cape Cod National Seashore.<br /> <br /> There are movie theaters and mini-golf and ice creams shops and harbor tours and whale watches all within driving distance. We are on the "Mid-Cape" right in the MIDDLE of Cape Cod and ready to host your best vacation, ever!<br /> <br /> Its just two miles to major grocery stores, and another mile to the Cape Cod Mall, Target etc. We are 10 minutes from bars and restaurants of Main Street, Hyannis and the commercial fishing and ferry docks in Hyannis.<br /> <br /> We take bookings year-round. Consider the fall when our whole area fills with colors, cranberries are harvested in mid to late October and as we approach fall the bog begins to display the colors of the red berries. In the spring, walking trails, beaches and marshes are prime for bird watching, while ocean fishing is active as the ocean currents transition. Or experience a true New England winter as the holidays twinkle and bundle up and see the beauty of Cape Cod without all the crowds.<br /> <br /> Amenities:<br /> <br /> In addition to our two bathrooms with showers, we have an outdoor shower with hot and cold water from spring through late fall.<br /> We have one bedroom with a king size bed, one with a queen size bed, and one with two twins, one twin is XL.<br /> We believe in extra pillows!

Listen in the evening and into the night to the low baritone of the bullfrogs in the marsh across the street and the occasional hoot of an owl in the trees. Hear screeches and watch osprey over lake, hawks over the bogs and new: there are eagles living on the other side of the lake who occasionally visit our cove to fish. There is always a resident blue heron in the cove. If you are lucky, you will see the shy muskrat fishing for muscles. All types of turtles hang out in the cove and you can play the game, "is that a leaf or stick, or a turtle popping it's head above the water?"<br /> <br /> We love it here and live about 5 miles away, so if there are any issues we can help at any time. read more show less
