Wellfleet, Indian Neck Neighborhood Vacation Rental - ID 40867

Welcome to Bayberry Cottage—an airy, comfortable three-bedroom home just a short walk down a sandy path to a quiet bay beach. Located in the coveted Indian Neck neighborhood on a quiet dead-end street and surrounded by bayberry bushes and native oak trees, this is an easy, relaxed spot for families or couples looking for a classic Cape Cod getaway.

Inside, the cottage blends the charm of knotty pine walls with modern conveniences. You’ll find A/C mini-splits in every room, a fully stocked kitchen, Wi-Fi, a smart TV, a dishwasher, and a cozy working fireplace. All three bedrooms have queen beds (one also has a twin), and two of them sit down a short hallway—great for naptimes or quiet evenings. The full bath with shower and bathtub are located on the main floor adjacent to the bedrooms.

Also on the main floor the open dining/living space leads right out to the deck, where you’ll find a gas grill and seating for six—perfect for post-beach meals. The front yard offers another great hangout spot with a picnic table, hammock, lounge chairs, and space for yard games.<br /> <br /> Downstairs, the laundry room, half bath, and storage area are stocked with beach chairs, boogie boards, and sand toys. The private outdoor shower includes a separate dry area for towels and clothes—ideal after a sandy day on the beach.<br /> <br /> Linens and towels (including beach towels) are optional for an extra fee. <br /> <br /> If you haven’t been to Wellfleet, you’re in for a treat! Known for its spectacular ocean beaches, pristine spring-fed kettle ponds, and thriving oyster scene, Wellfleet is a longtime favorite for Cape Cod lovers. The charming village center is filled with art galleries, boutiques, fish markets, ice cream parlors, and great local restaurants. There’s even a small market and a weekly farmers market to cover your essentials. The village is a short 5 minute drive, or an adventurous 45 minute coastal walk (during low tide only!)<br /> <br /> Outdoor enthusiasts will love the miles of National Seashore trails, the famous Cape Cod Rail Trail for biking, and some truly iconic breakfast spots. You can take a local oyster tour to learn about Wellfleet’s world-famous oysters, or spend a few hours at the Wellfleet Bay Audubon Sanctuary—an incredible spot for birding, wildlife watching, and scenic walks. A favorite of ours is the Cedar Swamp Walk at Marconi.<br /> <br /> Don’t miss the beloved Wellfleet Flea Market and the classic Drive-In Theater—both local institutions. And if you’re looking for a bit more nightlife or shopping, Provincetown is just 10 miles in one direction and Orleans is 10 miles the other. Orleans is also home to the Cape Cod Baseball League’s Firebirds, who play throughout the summer—an unforgettable and very Cape experience. read more show less
