Brand new beautiful listing on Lieutenant’s Island in Wellfleet. And you can bring your furry family member too! Come see why the island is such a sought after place to stay while visiting the Cape! Read the full description for all the details on this special gem!
While many homeowners pay to have that pristine shell driveway, the road to Lieutenant Island is naturally lined with the white clamshells from the birds that drop their catch on the pavement to break open and retrieve the prize inside. At low tide, the landscape reveals itself as a soft bed of beach grass, marsh cuts, and valleys of mud banks rife with unseen sea life and shellfish, and a variety of birds searching for their next meal. At high tide, a brand-new landscape appears covering the entire area with water and offering new and beautiful views from your decks, living, and dining rooms.
Timing the tides right, you come across the old bridge to get onto the island. Here you enter a special place where you can relax your shoulders, rest your head, and literally feel the tension release from your body. Sunsets on the beaches, kayaking out of Deep Hole, “jumping the bridge” at high tide, or walks through the Mass Audubon’s Wildlife Sanctuary, Lieutenant Island is one of the most diverse and beautiful places on the Cape to stay.
Your entire family will enjoy our newly-renovated, bright and comfortable home which can sleep up to 11. Beautiful marble countertops adorn the new kitchen with bright cabinetry and all the appliances you need for a gourmet meal. The dining table is perfect for game night (with the provided games) or meals and with two sliding doors to the large wrap around deck, dining can be done inside or out! Most of the top floor is comprised of large windows and sliding glass doors that capture all the beauty the island has to offer. The dappled sun across the back of our soft, new sectional is the perfect place for an afternoon snooze and is large enough for movie night with the family as well. The window a/c units keep the house cool on the hottest of days while the breeze off the bay carries the cool, salty air through our home on others.
The master bedroom is bright and airy with a queen bed and has a unique en suite bath with an antique apothecary mirror and a tub/shower combo. Off the living room is another half bath to serve the family’s needs throughout the days of fun during the stay. Down the stairs you will find the sunny laundry room with additional laundry sink and the back door that leads out to the outside shower and patio. Off the laundry room is the large second bedroom with its two additional full-size beds, dresser, wall-hung tv and hanging space for your clothing. Another sleek half bath is down the hall which leads to additional rooms for your family to relax and sleep in. The bunk beds will make the kids happy, along with an additional twin bed. In the common space you will find a futon sofa that converts to a full-size bed when needed. Our home has Roku streaming tv’s in the living room and in most bedrooms so everyone has a space to get away to.
Come play for hours catching the crabs and minnows in the tidal pools, float with the tide in Loagy Bay, walk down to the beach to enjoy the sunsets, ride bikes to hop on the Cape Cod Rail Trail, and enjoy ice cream in the evenings down at Bob’s Sub-n-Cone. Our home is ready for you to come and make memories to last a lifetime.

I'll begin by saying this was such a relaxing and pleasant experience for us! Having run our own rental property, we can be picky. This property meets so many expectations and hopes. The owner has clearly spent time considering renters' needs, and what is provided — particularly in the bathroom — is amazing, leading to pampered feel. We cozied up with the soft blankets and "fireplace", and thoroughly enjoyed the calming decor. Though we were there in winter, we imagine that the large deck and the property's proximity to so much summer fun would be wonderful.
The Breeze is a WONDERFUL place that has everything you will need and want!! It is a beautiful waterfront property close to many great experiences!! The hosts make it seamless, comfortable, yet there if you need them! We are planning on making this a yearly getaway!! Thank you for all you do!!
The property of this rental is so charming! Walkable to Arnold's and a bike rental shop. Great patio to wake up and have coffee :) Perfect size for the three of us girls for a weekend getaway. Easy check in/out. Thank you!
Book this place now! The house is exactly as pictured and was very clean. The location was ideal for our family as the beach was a 5 minute stroll down at the end of the dead-end street. There was plenty of room for 8 people, especially with the dining table in the screened-in porch and the table and chairs outside on the patio. These outside spaces greatly expand the living space, and the hammock and badminton net were a bonus. Other points include wifi was strong, kitchen well outfitted and beds were comfortable. Tara made herself completely available, and check in and out was easy. We would book the same house again!
This Airbnb was wonderful! Tara provided little snacks and gifts for us, such as a gift bag with cookies and make-up remover wipes in the bathrooms. She was great at communication and let us know ahead of time about any issues that might arise. We also received a virtual packet beforehand with information on check-in, attractions, etc. that was very self explanatory and helpful. The home was spacious and extremely comfortable. I highly recommend Tara's Airbnb for your trip to the Cape!
We had a wonderful visit! All members of our party were working from home for one of the days of our stay, and the wifi was reliable and fast throughout. We had all of the kitchen appliances and amenities necessary for a pleasant visit. The outdoor deck was a particularly nice area to sit at and work, relax, and eat.
Tara's cottage is the perfect place for a cape cod getaway. It's about a 4 minute walk from a small but awesome quiet beach. Watching the sunset on the beach was probably my favorite part. The cottage itself is the perfect size for a smaller group. The backyard has a volleyball net, lots of seating areas, an outdoor shower, and even a hammock to lay on. The location is 10/10.. a 5 minute drive from Eastham's "hole in one" coffee & bakery! P-town is about 30 minutes from the cottage. I couldn't have asked for a better place to stay for my weekend getaway, Tara is awesome!
The house is cute and just as pictured. Clean, cozy, and the view idyllic. It's a close drive to the beach or into town for dinner or shopping. Or you can just sit on one of the many chairs in the back with a glass of wine and stare at the pond (with your dog) like I did! Tara was communicative and friendly, offering me a tour and letting me know where everything was. If you don't see something you need, don't worry, she can get it for you. Will def stay here again!
Adorable house only minutes away from Nauset Lighthouse and Cape Cod National Seashore. Tara's guide book was incredible! She listed everything you could possibly need. I also loved all the little extras, like backed homemade cookies and complimentary spa face masks.
Wow. Such a beautiful stay at the Lieutenant's Lodge. This island is something special. We loved feeling all the history in this house. It's a perfect getaway. We were very comfortable and really enjoyed the atmosphere. We hope to return for sure. Thank you for sharing this beautiful home.
