Wonderful stay!
Britt Backman
We absolutely loved our weekend stay at Lieutenant Lodge! The house was immaculate and exceeded all expectations. Perfect location right on the beach and a quick drive to downtown wellfleet. Within minutes of arriving, Our golden retriever jumped right in the water and had the time of her life walking the sandbars with us. The beds were the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in. We highly recommend booking this house. We are already planning a trip back next year!
The Island
Mary Frances Levasseur
The experience was awesome, it’s the feel of old Cape Cod, like time stood still! The beach is secluded like the way it was when I first started coming to Lieutenant Island in the 1950’s!
Ocean Views
Ron Levasseur
We could see the ocean or marsh from every room! Spectacular service and tender loving care make this cottage the best!
Mr
Mike Harter
Loved the location. Only wish there was a landing about half way down the steps to sit at when tide was In. And to take a break when you have littles. But definitely will rent again

Space
This former hunting lodge built in 1927 has a long history on Lieutenant’s Island. The island, once known as a favorite for hunting migratory birds, is now a part of the Audubon Society’s Wellfleet Bay Sanctuary. Crossing the bridge to the island is an experience all in itself. The beautiful marshland stretches out before you, the seagulls drop clam shells from the sky in hopes of breaking them open on the pavement, the occasional kayaker slipping through the reeds – it all evokes a sense of peace and calmness. Lieutenant’s Lodge sits on a bluff overlooking the bay. Amazing nightly sunsets from your porch or just steps away to the sandy beach below.
The house itself is a rustic (it was a hunting lodge in the 30's!) 4 bedroom, 1.5 bath (with an outdoor shower as well). The living room, dining room, full kitchen, master bedroom, master bathroom, and a large sun porch with two additional single day beds (aka the sleeping porch) are located on the first floor. Up the antique stairs you will find the king bedroom overlooking the water, a half bath, and two more bedrooms toward the back of the house, both containing a queen bed in each. Outside is a huge wrap around porch with deck furniture, a dining table, grill, and all just 100 feet from your stairs to the beach. We also have bikes for your use and kayaks available as well. You can't get a more classic Cape Cod beach vacation than this.
Highlights of the Home:
- A custom, state-of-the-art, award-winning house manual with recommendations is provided with each stay
- Dog Friendly with fee of $100 (limit 1 dog – must be over 1 year old). No birds, cats, hamsters, ferrets, chocolate Easter bunnies, or pet rocks. Only a (one, uno, un, ichi, eguh, isa, otu, een, imwe, 1) dog that says woof.

The island is accessed by a bridge and the road may become covered in water if the tide exceeds 10 feet. You will see island residents and guests pull over to the side of the road waiting for the tide to recede sometimes. Depending on how high the tide is, it may only be 30 minutes or so before the road is tide-free (again, it depends on the tide).
For example:
First high tide is at 2:47 am and is 10.73 ft/Second high tide is at 3:05 pm and is 10.95 ft
Residents and guests with plans at 3:00 pm would simply arrive or leave between 2:00/2:30. If they miss the window, they simply wait 30/45 minutes until the tide recedes off the road. It isn't a big deal and a part of island life. Do not drive through salt water.
We understand that life happens and highly suggest that you purchase travel insurance for your vacation.
