Wonderful stay at the Bay Cottage!
Sophia Ith
My group and I had another wonderful stay at the Bay Cottage! The space is sparkling clean when we arrived and the location cannot be beat. Tara is also very responsive and attentive which makes for an even better stay!

5 star rating for cleanliness and the little added touches like the welcome treats, soaps and conditioners. Perfect for a couple with littles. Loved how close the walk was to the beach. We were 2 couples with one 9 month old. Only downfall was watching TV (it rained 2 days). That room was the same one that 1 couple slept too so felt a little invasive on their private time. Thank you.
10/10 Stay!

Excellent

The Bay Cottage never disappoints. I have been coming to the Cape since I was 8 years old. My grandparents got me hooked. To this day, I still stay in the same cottage they rented back in the day. A few major changes all for the good, but deep down inside, this is still the same cottage I remember. In fact, I can still remember the original way the cottage looked, with the large spring on the door that always slammed shut if you didn’t hold the door, or just the sound of the spring creaking as you opened the door. What I really remember and miss dearly is the Target Ship that was out in the Bay. My brother and I would run down the street to watch the planes fly really low and drop their bombs onto the ship. You could even hear the whistling noise the bombs made as they were let go from the planes. Nothing beats low tide where you can walk miles just to get to the water. I always tell my friends that visit, when it’s low tide, it looks like someone had just pulled the plug from the bathtub, there is no water unless you want to walk; way out to get your feet wet. Once they saw the low tide, they always said I wasn’t kidding. Eastham and Bay Cottage on Thumpertown Rd will always hold a special place in my heart. The cottage is well maintained, and the personalized gift bags is always a huge hit. I can’t wait for next year’s vacation; I know Eastham and The Bay Cottage will not disappoint!!!!

Neighborhood
Thumpertown is a bayside beach. Also close to freshwater kettle ponds, close to Cape Cod Rail Trail (bike trail), Arnolds, Coast Guard and Nauset Light beach, Salt Pond Visitors Center, Eastham Windmill, and First Encounter beach.
Space
Amazing summer beach days and sunsets await you at Thumpertown Beach. Just stroll down the road from your summer beach cottage which is your base camp for all things fun on Cape Cod this summer.
Everyone is enjoying each otherās company while relaxing in the hammock and sitting around the deck watching the friendly competition going on in the bocce court, or the crazy game of badminton happening at the nets. See what is growing in the guests garden this year or take out one of the kayaks and paddle around the bay. You take a deep breath and breathe in that salty Cape air, breathing out the tensions and feeling the stress leave you like the tides. Splashing around on the flats at low tide will keep the kids entertained for hours as well.
The two-bedroom cottage has all the creature comforts. The first bedroom has a comfortable full bed for two. The second bedroom houses a bunk bed consisting of two single beds and the sunroom has a trundle bed that pulls out into two more beds. Like most daybeds, the trundle may not be the most comfortable for a full-sized man of six feet tall and 250 lbs., but one or two smaller adults, teens, or children that fit in a normal twin bed would be just fine.
The full-sized kitchen has everything you need to cook a meal but even so, who wants to cook when you are in one of the best vacation areas on Cape Cod? Each reservation comes with an award-winning guide to the best localās insider tips and places to go, things to do, and places to see. You will also be staying close to Wiley Park and Great Pond, some of the greatest freshwater kettle ponds on the Cape. Hop on the Cape Cod Rail Trail and take a ride out to Nauset Light or maybe to the Chocolate Sparrow for a coffee. Everything is within reach here for the perfect family vacation.
Our Thumpertown Beach cottages are the perfect place to create memories that will last a lifetime. We would love to share all that Cape Cod has to offer, so please donāt hesitate to get in touch with any questions you may have!
