As a long-time lover of meaningful spaces and nostalgic design, I've always believed that where you stay should feel like a part of the journey—not just a place to sleep. "Le Couscous" is a cozy Cape Cod cottage I've lovingly maintained to capture that feeling. The name is a nod to heritage and warmth, and the cottage itself is designed to offer a comfortable, lived-in charm that helps guests feel instantly at home.
Over the years, I've enjoyed curating a space that blends classic wood-paneled New England style with thoughtful amenities and personal touches—from the breezy porch strung with lights to the little signs and shelves that reflect character. Whether you're looking for a peaceful solo retreat, a romantic weekend, or a relaxed family getaway, my hope is that your time here will be just what you need. And yes—your pets are welcome too!
What is special about this property?
What makes Le Couscous special is its simple, soulful charm. It's a true Cape Cod gem—tucked away, yet close to everything you'd want. The warm, wood-paneled interior gives it a nostalgic cabin feel, while the natural light that pours through the windows keeps the space fresh and inviting. One of my favorite features is the cozy enclosed porch, strung with soft lighting, where mornings begin with coffee and evenings end with wine and laughter.
Unlike many rentals, this cottage has a personality—it's not just functional, it's thoughtful. From the vintage touches and beachy artwork to the "Kiss the Cook" sign in the kitchen, every detail is meant to make you smile and settle in. The surrounding area is quiet and peaceful, with a lovely sense of community, yet you're just a short walk or bike ride to the beach, markets, and local cafes. It's the kind of place that helps you slow down, reconnect, and make real memories.
What is special about your town?
What makes this location truly special is its perfect balance of natural beauty, small-town charm, and easy coastal living. Nestled between Eastham and Wellfleet, the cottage is ideally situated to enjoy the very best of Cape Cod without the crowds. Eastham is known as the "Gateway to the Cape Cod National Seashore," with pristine beaches like Coast Guard Beach and Nauset Light Beach just minutes away. It's a haven for nature lovers, with endless bike paths, walking trails, and freshwater ponds like Great Pond and Herring Pond.
Nearby Wellfleet brings a touch of bohemian charm with its art galleries, local theaters, weekend flea markets, and famously fresh oysters. Whether you're exploring tide pools at low tide, watching a movie at the Wellfleet Drive-In, or enjoying a lobster roll by the harbor, there's something incredibly grounding about life here. It's the kind of place that invites you to slow down, breathe deeper, and feel connected—to the land, the ocean, and yourself.
