Small, but just right for a couple. Pristinely clean and well stocked with everything that could be needed. Great charm and character, and close to everything on the outer Cape. Lovely outdoor space, with sunset views, and a screen porch for eating. Only encountered one mosquito near the marsh after dark. Loved it, thanks Scott ##### Catherine B.

The cottage itself is an old fashioned Cape Cod cottage with a nicely updated kitchen and bath. The location was quiet and secluded but close to beaches and restaurants. Scott was great with any questions. Really a perfect place if you are looking for relaxation, peace and quiet. ##### william b. Stayed 10 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lottchen S. Sep 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Superb time at the cottage We were able to both "get away from it all" at this cottage lost in time and also quickly join the line at the addictive PG Boulangerie or popular Bagel Hound nearby. The Cape light, the marsh right by the house plus the sunsets over it, the bike trail and the evocative White Cedar Swamp - both right across Rt. 6, the 15 bike ride to beautiful White Crest beach and 10 mins. more to Beachcomber, host Scott's quick responses - all contributed to a WONDERFUL week at the Cape. ##### Lottchen S.

It was the best of all worlds - we had the quiet seclusion of being surrounded by nature and being in walking distance of the CCRT. Scott was a wonderful host immediately responsive to any of our questions. While the house is right off of Rt 6 giving us easy access to go all over the Cape, it had unexpected privacy tucked back and away. Our 23 yr old was fascinated by the architecture & all 4 us are eager to come back again. The fans were were perfect even with the heat - plenty of ventilation. ##### Christine H.

We enjoyed every minute - it is such a relaxing atmosphere. The cottage is rustic and very comfortable. The kitchen is well appointed with counter space for prep work. We ate all of our meals on the screened in porch. The outdoor shower is amazing! Enjoyed grilling seafood on the outdoor grill. Scott was very responsive and helpful. Very quiet despite being close to the highway. It is an easy car ride to the beaches in Wellfleet Center. I hope to return next year. ##### Maureen H. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter S. Aug 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful rustic cottage in the center of Cape Cod We loved this little rustic cottage in Wellfleet, and were lucky to find a place so close to everything. Even during the worst traffic, you're about 30 minutes from just about everything, including the ferry to Martha's Vineyard and Provincetown. There's an abundance of beaches, restaurants and stores within ten minutes of the place. Our weather was perfect, but note that if it was hot, you would be dealing with extremely hot temperatures in the cottage, as there's no AC. In fact, it would get hot during the day, so in the morning we had fans going in every room so that it was cool and aired out when we would return in the evening. ONE NOTE FOR OUT-OF-STATERS: I'm sure folks from Massachusetts know that to rent on CC means to bring your own bedsheets and towels. The owner does list this in the instructions, but there's a lot of info there that I decided to look at two days before travel, which is on me. For a bit over $100, you can rent sheets and two towels from a local dry cleaner, or pack your own (I had to pack my own since I was too late to rent). I've never heard of this, but the fact that a local business offers such a service shows that it's likely a well known practice in Massachusetts. The home is quite rustic, in the sense that it has a wonderfully weathered look. I saw from the one bad review that this freaked people out--you can keep your pristine hotels and cottages that are basically half million dollar homes, my wife and I loved this place completely. ##### Peter S.

Jul 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This was my fourth stay at the cottage and it didn’t disappoint. The location is great. Love the views of Blackfish Creek from the back of the house. The vibe is low key and mellow. We used the new gas grill a lot and enjoyed all of the grilled fish. It is a very peaceful place. Scott was a great host - excellent communicator! I hope to return again. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/530fb68c-bfc7-450d-bf57-e8b8f6c54a84-1752975277352.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/44613ffa-1de9-4aca-b364-7bf42604cde1-1752975279661.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c3189adf-51c9-4adc-b4a2-4c72c877f2c4-1752975279334.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f3dbc452-e0c0-450c-83ee-69ca4fecf2b3-1752975277892.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Maureen H.

The setting is beautiful, surrounded by nature, with bunnies and chipmunks strolling around the property in the mornings and in the evenings. The location is great, pretty close to Macguire Landing Beach , Beachcomber and White Crest beaches. We will definitely consider going back.

My husband and I had a wonderful visit to Scott’s cottage. It is a perfect mix of old and new Cape Cod. While there is no ac the breezes move well through the cottage and fans were provided. The WiFi was great and having a smart tv meant we could keep up our binging with a glass of wine once the sun set. Scott was an excellent communicator. When we arrived everything was spotless. We hope to return as my artist husband found the spot so inspiring and because of good WiFi I could still connect with the office. ##### Lavinia B.

Our time at the Captain's Cottage couldn't have been better. The setting by the marsh was magical, and we were treated to glorious sunsets and soaring birds almost every day. The cottage is adorable, better than the photos, with a well-stocked kitchen which was important for us because we cooked each evening, comfortable beds and a wonderful screened porch. The outdoor shower was fabulous with great water pressure and a view to die for. Most of all, we found our host, Scott, to be incredibly kind and responsive to every question we had. We would absolutely recommend, even with the occasional noise from nearby Rte 6, this cottage felt a world away. Hope to return next summer! ##### Sara A.

I wasn’t disappointed. I love the rustic feel of the house. It is so comfortable. The kitchen is well appointed and had any utensil I was looking for. We used the outside gas grill a lot for several kinds of fish as well as steak. I love the backyard and marsh. Scott was so responsive and helpful. The week went by very quickly.

Loved the privacy of the property. The sunsets were stunning overlooking the marsh. The landlords were very responsive. Only issue (which we knew in advance) was no air conditioning. The weather was great most of week, but the heatwave the last two days was intense and challenging for sleep. We asked for an extra fan which they brought immediately and helped. Ceiling fans would make a huge difference if possible. However, most nights were very comfortable. The screened in porch was wonderful! Look forward to staying there again. Thanks ##### Mary Ann D.

This is a unique, adorable, very private-feeling fairy-tale cottage set on a grassy lawn on the banks of a salt marsh, facing the sunset. (Mosquitos were NOT a problem.) Lots of birds and bunnies. Our family of two parents and two adult children spent two weeks here in August and had a great time. The owner, Scott, was cheerful, helpful, and a pleasure to interact with. The cottage itself is very sweet, with a charming rustic feel but a modern, renovated kitchen and bath. The photos are accurate. We ate all our meals either on the screen porch (hard to find) or at the picnic table located on the expansive lawn. The location in Wellfleet is great. It is located within a fairly short bike ride to the ocean and bay beaches and freshwater ponds, and we did a lot of kayaking within a short drive and on site in the salt marsh. The town of Wellfleet is about a 10 minute drive. Having a French bakery (PB Boulangerie Bistro) nearby was a plus, with short lines in the afternoon and evening. We were initially worried the cottage would be too close to Rt 6, but we quickly adapted to the faint background noise. Though we are VERY sound-sensitive people, it DID NOT BOTHER US ONE BIT or diminish our sense of peace and quiet in this lovely setting. We would definitely come here again. ##### Emily D.

I wanted a Wellfleet immersion experience., so the cottage was perfect. It is modern in important ways, rustic in others.. Be prepared to enjoy beautiful dark nights, gorgeous sunsets, ##### Jean G.

The cottage has an understated, timeless quality that is rare to find. I love everything about it, from the older spring mattresses, to the defunct call bell in the main bedroom, the dowels that prop the original windows, the spare Duravit fixtures in the kitchen and bath, and a fairly well-stocked kitchen. The outdoor shower and the marsh view are also highlights. ##### Edward B. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sara A.

We love so much about it…The view across the marsh, spectacular sunsets, the outdoor shower, the privacy, and having almost everything we need in their well stocked kitchen. The owner lives adjacent to the cottage and is very responsive to any needs we had, both prior and during our stay. The cottage offers simplicity, aesthetics and an incredible sense of peace. Highly recommend! ##### Sara A.
