A Giant Step Up
Rick Wallace
I’d like to explain us and our visit a bit. Retired couple that has been part of Eastham since 1961. Many summers and all the other seasons with local family. Times have changed and have been renting for the last ten years. We have found the early fall works the best for us.
First year “working” with The Heart of Cape Cod and Tara. Years passed it was AirBnB. Can only sum it up as a giant step up in the rental part of our trip. Had zero problems with the rental, but if the pre- and post-communication with Tara and her staff are any indication of the attention you would receive if something did arise, I have to believe the response would only be top shelf. Can’t express enough good feelings about this crew.
We rented Gray Whale. If your trip is with younger kids and teens, as we did for many years, this house would be perfect. Quite street, safe cul-de-sac, great location. There are plenty of indoor activities and games also. We found nothing lacking for a relaxing visit. Being early fall, unable to comment on heating or air conditioning, as we enjoyed great weather and opening windows worked for us.
Here at Heart of Cape Cod is where we will be planning next years visit.
Thank you,
Rick & Doreen
Description

Tucked on a quiet cul-de-sac just minutes from both Campground and Nauset Light beaches, this relaxed 3BR retreat invites you to explore by bike, fire up the grill, rinse off in the outdoor shower, and unwind in true Cape style—with salty toes, fresh seafood, and nowhere else to be.
Notes
Communication with guests is important to us. Please be sure you have app notifications turned on for your phone as this will be our means of communicating with you before, during, and after your stay. Our digital guidebooks contain directions, instructions, and access information. It is your responsibility to review this information prior to arrival.
Neighborhood
We are located bayside in a lovely neighborhood cul-de-sac. Very central to everything. Close to Cape Cod Rail Trail (bike trail), kettle ponds, ocean side Coast Guard and Nauset Light beach, Salt Pond Visitors Center, Eastham Windmill, and First Encounter beach.
Space
Brought to you by the Heart of Cape Cod, Gray Whale is your classic, laid back Cape Cod escape tucked on a quiet cul de sac in Eastham — just minutes from both bayside and oceanside beaches. The salty breeze drifts through screened windows, the yard is perfect for yard games or evening talks around the fire pit, and the nearby tidepools and trails invite easy days along the coast. Whether you’re pedaling on the Cape Cod Rail Trail, chasing sunrises at Nauset Light, or strolling to Thumpertown for golden hour, this home puts you right in the heart of it all.
Step inside and you’ll feel instantly at ease. A fully stocked kitchen with breakfast bar invites casual meals and lobster boils alike. The living room is made for easy evenings — settle in with a streamed movie or a favorite board game. With a first floor bedroom and full bath, plus two bedrooms and a second full bath upstairs, everyone has space to relax and refresh after a day in the sun.
Outside, the deck is just right for grilled dinners and morning coffee, the yard welcomes cornhole and laughter, and a classic Cape Cod outdoor shower awaits sandy toes (seasonal). Best of all, the comforts of home — from strong WiFi to full laundry — help make every stay stress free and simple.

Booking Notes

Airbnb adds its own platform service fee on top of this and collects local taxes. These are not controlled or collected by us
