About this rental
Enjoy one of the Chequessett Inn's original bluff cottage's built in the early 1900's on Mayo Beach by Captain L.D. Baker. This beautiful large waterfront cottage has panoramic views of Wellfleet Harbor stretching all the way across to the Cape Cod National Seashore's Great Island. In the evening, enjoy a beautiful scene of the sun setting in the far west on the patio just below the wrap-around porch. Avoid the hassle of driving to crowded beaches by walking down the steps to the private Mayo Beach below and bask in the afternoon sun.
This cottage features a newly renovated eat-in kitchen, terrific for hosting a New England clam bake for the whole family. The private master bedroom suite with new tiled full bath is perfect for in-laws that want a quiet get away and a window air conditioner unit. The sleeping porch features two sets of bunk beds; plenty of room to invite cousins and friends. Many game nights have been played in the spacious living room. Upstairs you will find 3 comfortable bedrooms with all new Sealy Posturepedic mattresses, two with queens and one with a set of twins. There is also a sleeping nook at the top of the stairs for extra guests with a terrific view of the harbor. Bring your boats and moor them out front or bring your kayaks and leave them on the seawall. Wellfleet has something for everyone: nearby is golf, tennis, sailing lessons, fishing, fresh water ponds, ocean beaches, birding, hiking and art galleries. This is a trip that you, your family, and your friends will remember for a lifetime.

About the owner: The Cutting's have vacationed in Wellfleet since the 1950's. In February of 1964 our parent's Harlow & Olga drove down in a blizzard with the president of Amherst Savings bank in tow. Another couple turned around and went home. Olga gifted her 6 sons the cottage so it would remain in the family. Six brothers, 11 grandchildren and more then 20 Great Grandchildren to this day appreciate her gift that is the glue to our family.
Why this property? Perfect for a large family to enjoy through the gernerations.

Christine&Sam&SueClassic summer week at the Cape!
If you are nostalgic for that cottage by the sea – the one perched up on a bluff with an expansive porch (oh that view!), wooden & wicker rockers, creaky screen doors, white shiplap walls and ceilings in the upstairs bedrooms, this place is for you. Owned by the same family for decades, upon arrival it immediately feels as if YOUR family has owned it for generations. This is a family place for those summers of yesteryear, and that feeling can be captured if you stay here. Laid back and comfortable, it has a worn-in feel, not fussy. Dip your feet in the pail to rinse the sand off and settle inside for board games, movies, cards. There’s enough room for everyone to find their space. The functional kitchen leaves ample room for dining and getting around each other in the chaos of a family meal. Salty breezes coming directly off the bay will rattle the old windows in the eaves, and even that sound gets tucked into your memories. For this is a special memory-making place. One for people who love to be around their family (you can hear through the walls and that is exactly part of its charm), saying good night by hollering to each other never gets old and laughter abounds. We want to thank the Cutting family for keeping the OLD CAPE vibe alive and for sharing it with us! We can’t wait to get back on that porch to experience magnificent sunsets, watching the oyster people work at low tide and the special camaraderie and conversation that only a magical place like this can inspire. So classic is this house that it appears in one of Edward Hopper’s paintings. It is sure to become one of your classics too.
