Description

Description

Be one of the first to rent Heron Cove, a completely renovated, ''green'' home on 1.3 acres of Indian Neck pine woods featuring 3 plus bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a finished basement, and a large deck.

Heron Cove’s open floor plan, vaulted ceiling, oversized windows and skylights provide abundant natural light and bring the outside in. There is ample space for socializing inside and out, and private areas for kids/teens as well as for remote work.

The home is thoughtfully designed with ash floors, quartz countertops, large pantry, colorful tile, gas fireplace, 4 skylights, blown glass fixtures, live-edge benches, outdoor shower with windows, and a two-level mahogany deck.

Heron Cove has central heat/air conditioning from a new heat pump system, as well as other green technologies like solar panels, on-demand hot water, and solar skylights.

The house is about a mile to Indian Neck beach and close to everything else that Wellfleet and the Outer Cape offers. It's also a short walk through the woods to Chipman’s Cove (not a swimming area) and a deeded overlook that provides views of Wellfleet harbor, Indian Neck and Great Island beyond.

We’ve vacationed in Wellfleet for 4 decades, first as kids with our parents, and then with our own now-grown children. Our goal with Heron Cove was to build a house we would have been thrilled to rent, and we’ve provided all that you need for a perfect stay.

If you don't know Wellfleet, you're in for a treat. Wellfleet is literally surrounded by the beauty of the Cape Cod National Seashore, a 43,000 acre national park with 40 miles of Atlantic coastline. Pristine beaches (bay and ocean), amazing fresh water ponds, marshes and forests abound for play, exploration and relaxation. Plus there's Wellfleet’s Audubon Wildlife Sanctuary for birding; the Cape Cod Rail Trail for biking; Wellfleet cinema and drive-in movie theater, the local W.H.A.T. theater company, a sprawling flea market twice a week, a great public library, a public golf course, tennis courts, many galleries, and wonderful restaurants and bars. Nationally known musicians perform in the area 2-3 times a week during the summer months. Provincetown, 20 minutes away, offers countless shops, restaurants, galleries, dune tours, whale watching, and many other activities.

Cleaning fee included for weekly rentals. $200 discount off for additional consecutive weeks. You provide your own linens/towels (or we can hook you up with an affordable way to rent them).

    Wellfleet Perfection

    We have been coming to Wellfleet for over 40 years & Heron Cove is the most exquisite home we've ever rented! The photos depict a fraction of the beautiful & functional design of the home. Richard & Rachel were outstanding hosts. Proactive in their communications, timely in responding to inquiries and have anticipated practically every need. They have provided quality amenities at every turn! We are a multigenerational family vacationing with our children & grandchildren. We had ample room to spread out indoors & especially enjoyed the basement with the big screen tv & games; the ping pong table in the garage was a plus! The outdoor shower & foot wash faucet were not only a treat but an invaluable convenience after a day at the beach especially with young children. We're looking forward to returning next summer. show more show less

    Favorite Cove

    We have stayed here twice and see it as our favorite house on the Outer Cape. It is close to Wellfleet and Indian Neck beach. Spacious house with pleasant use of natural light. Sensible modern interior. Great kitchen for cooking and sitting around the table with family and guests. Excellent climate control. Comfortable beds. Great TV room and games for teens. The back yard is a pleasure to hang out without hearing any neighbors. Great for meeting with friends or reading a good book.

    Wonderful Wellfleet Stay

    From the outset, the owners of this property were prompt in replying and very communicative throughout. The home itself was spacious, clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. The outdoor patio was a nice place for dinner and our family enjoyed the large screen TV, air hockey and ping pong table. The location of the home was the perfect mix of convenience and privacy. Just a few minutes drive to many of our favorite ocean side beaches, Wellfleet center and all that Wellfleet has to offer. A beautiful and comfortable home and one we would highly recommend! show more show less

    Amazing home!

    We had a wonderful stay at Heron Cove. The home was comfortable, clean, and modern. It looks just like the photographs and was even more lovely in person. Hosts are responsive and helpful, though we didn't have any issues at all during our stay. The location in Wellfleet is convenient to everything our family wanted to do. We will be back!

    Pretty Much Perfection

    Heron Cove is spacious, modern, minimalist, and "spankin' new" feeling. It was a joy to stay there! We spent more time "at home" than we typically do on vacations because the property (surrounded by woods) was so lovely. We cooked in a few nights and found everything we needed for preparation--nice cookware and Crate and Barrel dishes/glasses--everything top notch. The owner, Richard, was super responsive and helpful in the few instances when I reached out to him. We all enjoyed the man-cave with a GIANT TV, foosball and air hockey. We also liked the cornhole game and played every night at cocktail hours. I could go on and on.....:) show more show less

    Best home we have rented

    We have been renting in Wellfleet for 50 years and this home way surpasses the others. The owners thought of every detail to make our stay a wonderful experience. The house has been redone and it is beautiful! From a wonderful kitchen with great amenities to a wonderful backyard and great outdoor shower...every little detail was thought of!
    Dealing with Richard, the owner, was a pleasure too! Highly recommend..will be staying here again! Lil K. (Great Neck, NY)

    Wellfleet Revisted

    This is the first time we traveled back to Wellfleet since the early 1990's. The wait was well worth it. This home was perfect in so many respects. Richard, a gracious owner, was accessible for our questions and called a week in advance to make sure I had no concerns.

    The walk across the road on a route outlined in Richard's house guide took us down to the Cove at low tide. Lovely.

    The fun games like scrabble, corn hole, and ping pong (didn't even get to the air hockey and foosball) kept us busy when we weren't hanging out in the spacious living room or on the deck out back.

    And what can I say about the kitchen—everything you could ever want—highest end appliances and drawers that closed with a feather touch of the hand.

    Best part for me personally was the huge TV and comfortable viewing room—you see I am Phillies Phanatic and I just had to be able to watch the Phillies. Sad to say, they lost, but the house made the loss not only bearable, but forgettable.

    So as my wife and I celebrated our 42nd anniversary, I can absolutely say it will not be another several decades until we return.

    Perfection

    Heaven in Wellfleet

    Our stay in Wellfleet was as perfect as it could have been, and our family all think this house anchored us in our joy. We have rented in Wellfleet before, and have many friends who have rented in Wellfleet so we are very familiar with what kind of housing is available. We also know that nothing in Wellfleet is more than a 10 minute drive from anywhere else. Indian Neck is the perfect neighborhood for us. A minute from Dunkies, 3 minutes from our favorite bay beach, 6 minutes from the best pond, and a whopping 10 minutes to Newcomb. So what's left to consider is the actual location. And it's heaven. Walkable neighborhood with lovely views just steps away, with wild turkeys to surprise you! The property is lovely, with a pair of Adirondack chairs nestled in the woods overlooking the FABULOUS deck. And oh, the deck! Perfect for entertaining. We spent a drizzly afternoon under the MASSIVE umbrella reading books! The interior is where it all matters though. This home has been renovated recently with a really critical eye. Every socket is placed just where you need it, every light switch makes sense. We cooked large meals for friends in the fully stocked kitchen and wanted for nothing. We did laundry every other day and these machines are twice as fast as mine at home. Beds are firm yet soft, the AC is perfect, water pressure is good, I could go on and on. You will absolutely not regret staying here!! show more show less

    Heron Cove, Wellfleet, July 2023

    We spent a week at this home in Wellfleet during July, 2023. The house is perfect; every inch of it is new, clean and beautiful! The kitchen is extremely well organized and equipped. Rooms are spacious and bright. The outdoor space supports a large crowd, and the outdoor shower was our family's favorite. The downstairs was perfect for watching a series on one of many streaming stations (also provided), and air hockey and foosball games were a hit. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. I can highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a wonderful Cape vacation spot! show more show less

    We've vacationed in Wellfleet for 4 decades, first as kids with our parents, and then with our own now-grown children. With Heron Cove, our goal was to build a house we would have been thrilled to rent, and we've provided all that you need for a perfect stay.

    What is special about this property?
    Our home is very private, on 1.3 acres of woodland. It's filled with oversize windows and skylights to bring the outside in. It's a short walk through the woods to the bay, and a 5 minute drive to Wellfleet center.

    What is special about your town?
    If you don't know Wellfleet, you're in for a treat. Wellfleet is literally surrounded by the beauty of the Cape Cod National Seashore, a 43,000 acre national park with 40 miles of Atlantic coastline. Pristine beaches (bay and ocean), amazing fresh water ponds, marshes and forests abound for play, exploration and relaxation. Plus there's Wellfleet's Audubon Wildlife Sanctuary for birding; the Cape Cod Rail Trail for biking; Wellfleet cinema and drive-in movie theater, the local W.H.A.T. theater company, a sprawling flea market twice a week, a great public library, a public golf course, tennis courts, many galleries, and wonderful restaurants and bars. Nationally known musicians perform in the area 2-3 times a week during the summer months. Provincetown, 20 minutes away, offers countless shops, restaurants, galleries, dune tours, whale watching, and many other activities.
