You are directly on Cape Cod bay so the neighbors along the shore are summer homes as well

Brought to you by the Heart of Cape Cod, Castaway Cottage is a cozy, one small dog-friendly beachfront retreat perched right on the shores of Cape Cod Bay. Designed for couples or a small family, this charming two-bedroom escape invites you to slow down, savor the salt air, and enjoy front-row views of the bay's endless tides.

Step inside and feel instantly at ease. The main bedroom features a comfortable queen bed, while the second offers built-in sailor-style twin bunks perfect for kids or extra guests. A small pop-up sofa in the living room provides an additional spot for one smaller guest/child. The cottage's compact kitchen is fully stocked with everything needed for easy meals, while the outdoor spaces steal the show.

Spend your days on the private patio, swaying in the sunset swing chairs or sipping wine beside the propane fire table as the sky turns gold over the bay. Take the private stairs down to the sand, or gather around for a casual barbecue as seagulls call in the distance.

Castaway Cottage is adjacent to the main home but enjoys its own space and privacy. For multi-generational families or group getaways, both properties may be rented together, sleeping up to 12.
