The Boat House is located at water's edge in a tranquil pine forest bounded by the Conservation lands of the Fox Island Preserve and a tidal inlet from Wellfleet Harbor which is ideal for kayaking. From the property paths lead into the nature preserve and along the nearby marshes which abound with wild life. Nearby are the famed Atlantic beaches, Cape Cod Bay and fresh water ponds for swimming and boating. Within minutes is the Mass Audubon Society, the Cape Cod National Seashore with its environmental programs and a 24 mile long bike trail connecting nearby towns. The historic village of Wellfleet 'The Art Gallery Town' offers many restaurants, art galleries, and summer theater events.

The house is perfect...wating for nothing

Review Submitted: October 11, 2011 Date of Stay: October 2011
We had a most wonderful time in your Boat House. The house is perfect...wanting for nothing and so comfortable. We enjoyed all the art . The view is unbelievable!!...magically changing from mud flats to sparkling water. I am a birder and the shore birds were plentiful. The walks by the house are beautiful. I cannot say enough about your Boat House...except can you tell me when is not too soon to ask about available weekends for next fall. We all (husband, son, daughter-in-law, and grand kids) could not believe our luck to be spending our time in such beauty. And, the weather was superb...I swam in the bay and in Slough Pond. Thank you for everything. I appreciate how easy and pleasant you made all the arrangements. I hope we will be able to return soon.

An Incredible spot

Review Submitted: September 26, 2011 Date of Stay: June 2010
“It’s an incredible spot. Amazing the way the water turns into flats and then back to water again, seemingly in the blink of an eye. The house itself is both exquisite and comfortable. Fascinating design. The inside of the house is somehow twice as large as the outside, plus you can get from in doors at every turn. “

It just doesn't get any better

Review Submitted: September 26, 2011 Date of Stay: September 2009
“We had a fabulous time staying at the Boat House. It’s about the nicest house ( let alone a beach house!) I’ve ever stayed in. And the location! It just doesn’t get any better! Loved the scenery and solitude ( only broken by the herons taking issue over territory) and hearing my dad (82) keep a running account of whether the tide was in or out. I must have walked every conservation trail and beach I could find. All in all (weather included) it was perfect! Thank you so much for letting us stay. My parents would also like to send you a note of thanks. With kind regards….Victoria Sept/2009
