Best Wellfleet Rental Yet!

We’ve been coming to Wellfleet for a week each summer for years and each time we rent a different place, always hoping for the right combination of beauty and comfort for a reasonable price. We were delighted by this well-stocked home in a private, beautiful spot among the trees, yet only a 5-minute drive from town. The decor is vibrant and interesting. The owners were responsive when we had a question about the thermostat, and there was none of the stinginess of other rentals, where we’ve had to bring our own toilet paper, dish soap, etc. You do need to rent or bring sheets or towels (for some reason this is standard for the area—and after a snafu with the only local rental option, I’d bring our own next time), but all the other necessaries are provided, including grilling equipment to make the most of the fabulous fresh seafood at Hatche’s market. There’s an outdoor shower, a lovely back deck, and a fabulous screened sunroom for maximum bug-free communing with nature. Although it was cool during most of our week there, it was so nice to have the a/c when it did get too warm. A major bonus: mattresses from the current century, which is unusual in our experience! And a room with a king, no less—a rare find! If comfortable sleep is important to you, I think you’ll be happy here. Overall, a wonderful experience.

Great house, wonderful hosts, beautiful location

Thank you! The house was spacious, bright and airy. It had everything we could have needed in the kitchen as well as for the beach. A lovely walking distance to town (about a mile). The location is quiet and lovely and yet close to both bay and ocean beaches. We loved our week in Wellfleet - thanks!

A great house in Wellfleet

This house is lovely and in a perfect location to get to the ponds, the ocean beaches, and Wellfleet center. It is a very comfortable house, with a well-stocked kitchen, and a great porch. Lots of windows brought the breezes in every day. Plus our dog was very happy being with us, running in the woods and on the beaches. It was a great spot for us.

Perfect!

We really enjoyed our stay! Having a lot of biking/hiking trails just out the back door is amazing. You can explore the woods without having to drive anywhere and walk to several ponds, and beach overlooks, if you want to go a little further. Town is a short drive, and PJ’s and Moby Dick’s are really close. The space was very comfortable, and I was pleasantly surprised by the abundance of spices in the cabinet. The propane grill worked flawlessly, as did everything else in the house. We would stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by George Pillsbury and Mary Tiseo

George Pillsbury and Mary Tiseo bought the land for our property in 1997. We built a home on the land the next year - with the help of a local contractor familiar with the needs of a home built for our family and for rentals to guests. They made sure it was comfortable and light.

Why they chose this property

I backs up to the edge of the national seashore that stretches between kettle ponds and reaches the ocean a mile away. We're close to Wellfleet village yet secluded in a hidden cul de sac. Our main access to Rte 6 and the town of Wellfleet has a traffic light make access to the village and harbor, and Rte 6 itself, much easier. Nice walks to Dyer and Long Pond.
