We enjoyed our stay at Whale Song. Cleanliness, communication, privacy were all excellent. How small is this place? The building dimensions are 12 feet by 16 feet. That leaves room inside for a tiny water closet, a comfortable queen sized bed, a love seat, a kitchenette, and a very thin table with 2 chairs. The kitchenette was very well equipped, including coffee and tea, and we found everything we needed for preparing simple meals. There is ample space outdoors for dining. Great location for beaches and rail trail.

Great location, easy walk/bike to coast guard beach and the salt pond visitors center. the cottage itself was the perfect size for two people just wanting a little getaway, and the outdoor area was great for sitting at night. The host was also super communicative, quick responses, and helpful!

We had a great experience the four nights we stayed at Whale Song. Tara provides everything needed plus more for a great stay in Cape Cod. The neighborhood was beautiful and quiet and you’re a quick walk/run to the Salt Pond visitor center which was fun to explore. Also a short drive to some of the best beaches on the Atlantic cost (Marconi and Nauset). Can’t say enough good things about this BnB for two!
6 / 10Average·Sep 2024
Tiny and cute converted shed which kept us dry for the first 36 hours of our stay as the rain kept us indoors most of the day. The main lighting for this small space came from the 3 bulbs attached to the ceiling fan. Unfortunately, they were all "bright white" bulbs making the lighting of this otherwise romantic space, stark and cold. Also, power outlets were oddly placed behind the bed headboard (fire hazard?) and the occasional table that acted as the kitchen table (had to pull the table away from the wall to use the outlet.) It would have been nice to understand where Minister's Pond was relative to the hut as we didn't discover it until minutes before we left.
