About

Bay View House sits on a bluff overlooking Cape Cod Bay, providing one of the finest sunset views on the Cape. This three-bedroom, one-bathroom vacation rental sleeps seven and features a fully equipped kitchen, washer and dryer, flat-screen TV with Blu-ray player, and a large deck with propane BBQ grill and bay views. Beds include one queen, one twin, and two fulls; pillows, blankets, and fans are provided, but guests must bring their own linens and towels. The property is accessed via a dirt road through the forest, with the final mile requiring careful navigation in low-clearance vehicles. Despite being only a few miles from Wellfleet's charming village center with its bookstores, galleries, and restaurants, the Bay View House offers a secluded retreat where guests can enjoy quiet time away from everyday stress. The location provides direct access to Cape Cod Bay's peaceful beaches and extensive tidal flats. Beyond the shoreline, the Cape Cod National Seashore offers 40 miles of pristine beaches, marshes, ponds, and uplands with abundant wildlife. Visitors can explore miles of walking and biking trails, climb historic lighthouses, and spot over 450 species of wildlife. The surrounding area offers endless recreation including paddleboarding, kayaking, whale watching, and cultural attractions including museums, theaters, and art galleries throughout the Cape.
