Peace and quiet

Guests say this home is in a quiet area.
Welcome to The Boat House! Find a peaceful setting in this private suite nestled amid the charm of our one acre property. This nautical themed retreat provides a spacious yet cozy suite with private and exclusive entrance, and is outfitted with a queen bed, living and dining area, well-equipped kitchenette and full bath. The gas stove adds cozy ambiance for a night in while guests can also enjoy the beautiful backyard and koi pond.

The space
Upon entering The Boat House the warm and cozy decor will immediately welcome you.

The living area includes a full-length sofa, tables, carpet and gas stove fireplace to warm you during cool evenings. The large TV is equipped with upgraded cable and can accommodate any of your streaming services and gaming devices. The Boat House is also equipped with dedicated Wi-Fi.

The quaint dining table gives you a front row seat for bird and bunny watching in the back yard. The kitchenette is equipped with mini-refrigerator, microwave, toaster, Keurig coffee maker and coffee, sink, utensils and dishware essentials and a guidebook of ample dining, delivery and take-out opportunities.

The queen bed is equipped with a memory foam mattress and includes fresh sheets, blankets and pillows - both soft and sturdy - to please all types of sleepers.

The full bath includes a large stand-up shower, rug, oversized towels, hand towels and face cloths, hairdryer and sanitizing hand-soap and toiletries.

Guest access
At the end of the long driveway through the property, a private on-site parking area easily houses guest parking. If there will be more than one car with your reservation, no problem, just let us know so we can make arrangements to fit everyone.

Guests may enjoy all the property has to offer. The tranquil koi pond and waterfall is a great place for an evening cocktail or morning coffee. The fish are fed each morning and evening and we've enjoyed watching the faces of our young guests help us feed the fish.

During the warmer months, corn-hole and chippo golf amenities are available for a little friendly competition as well as beach chairs, beach towels and a BBQ grill.

The property is located within the Bass River Historical area and a short walk through the beautiful neighborhood brings you to the Judah Baker Windmill and small beach along the River. It's a special spot, often providing a beautiful backdrop for weddings and special occasions. Continue along the road down river and you'll arrive at Smuggler's Beach, a mile away.

The beauty of the location is while quiet and private, we're so close to beaches, shopping, dining, groceries, liquor stores, golf and mini-golf and central to all the Cape has to offer.

Other things to note
The Boat House along with our other two cottages, The Jelly Shop and The Pink Cottage are available year-round for guest get-a-ways. While summertime is the crown jewel and books quickly, the fall is a particularly beautiful time of year with warm days, cool nights, summer attractions, but not quite as busy!

The holidays are a particularly favorite time of year of ours as we transform the property into a holiday wonderland, lighting the large outdoor Christmas tree after Thanksgiving. Each cottage is tastefully decorated to celebrate the season and love when guests feel like they are in a holiday movie!

Winter provides its own charm, and has been a fine time of year for writers and artists to escape to the private and quiet sanctuary! It's the time of year to "live like a local" and enjoy the year-round restaurants and attractions!

Whatever time of year, we look forward to welcoming you to our wonderful corner of the world.

Neighborhood highlights

We are located in a beautiful historic area near the Bass River. The quiet neighborhood is great for walking with commercial areas just a brief ride up the road, but miles away in bustle and noise.
