About this cottage rental
Escape to a true nature lover's paradise with this spacious, rustic cottage, tucked deep in the wooded privacy of the Cape Cod National Seashore. Situated just a quarter-mile walk to the serene sands of Bound Brook Island Beach, this peaceful sanctuary offers the ultimate setting to unplug and connect with the outdoors. Guests can enjoy total privacy surrounded by lush trees, seamless travel via the newly constructed raised access road, and relaxing evenings on the lovely brick patio or cozy sunroom.
Designed with flexible sleeping arrangements for up to six guests, the multi-level floor plan combines open gathering areas with unique retreat spaces. The main level hosts a light-filled living area, dining room, and fully equipped kitchen, alongside a bright sunroom featuring a double futon for extra lounging. On the lower level, you'll find a serene primary bedroom with a king-sized bed and a full bathroom with a tub, while the upper level offers two twin beds. For an adventurous touch, a unique loft bedroom with a queen bed is accessible via a pull-down ladder in the main living space, and a second full bath can be accessed via the terrace.
The classic Cape Cod lifestyle shines outdoors, where you can swing in the hammock under the canopy of trees, enjoy al fresco meals on the deck, or rinse off after a day at the beach in the enclosed outdoor shower. Equipped with high-speed WiFi, laundry facilities, a fully stocked kitchen with a lobster pot and coffee maker, and pet-friendly accommodations for your dog, this charming retreat is your gateway to an unforgettable National Seashore escape.

This cottage is in a quiet marshland which has expanded since the Herring River tidal restoration project. We were pleasantly surprised to discover that we had stayed in the cottage next door a decade ago. This area is replete with history of the writers and artists who also serenity and each other's companionship. I would return, if it were possible for my husband to negotiate the sloping terrain and staircases up to and inside the cottage.

This property is lovely and we'll definitely be coming back next year. Not only is it aptly named (quiet & private), but you're immersed in nature here with beautiful sunrises,lots of wildlife, and, to my surprise, sweet, clean air drifting in the windows all day and night... I had expected a boggy smell given the surroundings. I had also expected lots of mosquitos, but only got one bite the entire week. The house is really charming with clean and comfortable furniture (that king bed was so comfy!) and everything you'd need for a week's stay. Can't wait to go back!

Everything was perfect, the house looks small from outside but is very spacious and comfortable inside, romantic seclude location, the only thing i wish the old pans are thrown away, the bathroom sink needs professional cleaning.
