Secluded Waterfront Retreat for 8 - Private Dock, Water Views & Game Room

A true nature escape, this wooden home has more of a mountain-house feel than a classic Cape Cod cottage. It’s surrounded by trees, where you may spot deer, hear birds, and occasionally see a spider or two, all while enjoying the calm and privacy of being immersed in nature.

Tucked into the trees on the edge of quiet Bourne Cove, this waterfront home offers a rare blend of seclusion and convenience — just minutes from shops and restaurants, but worlds away from summer crowds and Cape Cod traffic. Ideal for families, large groups, boaters, and remote workers, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath retreat sleeps up to 8 comfortably (plus a bunk bed in the basement for children) and offers direct access to Buzzards Bay from your private dock.

Bring your own boat or rent one nearby to explore the coast by water — then return home to grill on the deck, watch the sun set through wall-to-wall windows, or unwind in the basement game room.


* Gorgeous sunrise views through floor-to-ceiling windows

* Private dock with access to Buzzards Bay (24"-30" inches of water in the channel during low tide)

* Shaded by tall trees — cool and breezy in summer, plus AC

* 4 bedrooms + 3 full baths — ideal for families and groups

* Dedicated office space + strong WiFi — perfect for remote work

* Large dining table for group meals

* Game-ready basement with ping pong, board games & lounge area

* Outdoor grill on the expansive deck, outdoor table

What to Know
The waterfront is tranquil and scenic, ideal for boating, paddling, and relaxing — not beach activities.

Air conditioning is provided, though often unnecessary due to the natural shade and breezes.

You're close to local amenities — just minutes from shops and restaurants — while enjoying complete privacy and seclusion.

Perfect For
Family getaways or multi-generational trips

Groups up to 8 adults seeking peace and space (plus a bunkbed in the basement for kiddos)

Boaters and kayakers (bring your boat or rent nearby)

Anyone looking to skip Cape Cod traffic without skipping the charm

very nice private and quiet location but the accommodation was somewhat tired and in need of a facelift. This is not conveyed in the online booking photos and we didn't appreciate soiled bed linen discovered on arrival.

Christmas 2024

Great time. Spacious. Three of my children who live out of state came home for Christmas. The home was bright,spacious, very comfortable with earth tone accents. The beds were very comfortable. As my kids played games with each other, I sat on the porch with my dog, stared at the sun as it shone over the water, and reflected oabout my wonderful Christmas of 2024.

Perfect Idyll

The home is ideally situated in a serene and private cove, and features floor to ceiling windows overlooking the water from two floors. It was sparkling clean, handsomely furnished, quiet and lovely. We enjoyed easy access to explore Wareham, Sandwich, the lower Cape and New Bedford, among other sites. We loved the family history tied to the place and found Ann to be extremely helpful and responsive. What a treasure!

Great Location and Priced Right!

Located on a secluded dead end street, and thanks to the gorgeous floor-to-ceiling windows, the property and views are spectacular! The interior is a bit dated, but we chose this house, in part, due to its affordability, so we were fine with its charm. Thank you for a great girls trip!

Great Family Getaway Place

We spent a long 4-day/3-night weekend here with our three adult children for my 60th B-Day -- we were not disappointed! Well-equipped kitchen allowed us to cook all of our meals here including my cake! My near-by brother and his wife popped in for dinner and we enjoyed ourselves on the huge deck overlooking the estuary/inlet down below. Took several strolls down the dock to watch the sunset; and saw some deer and wild turkeys at dawn. Visited in October so didn't get to kayak or put our feet in the water, but have to imagine it would be great for that. Maybe next year we'll get to play pingpong in the basement! We plan to be be back next year!

So, so, so lovely

I can't wait to go back. Tranquil and secluded, but easy access to local restaurants and grocery stores. Spacious and comfortable for our family of 5 and our dog. Updated but not overly fancy or pretentious. Nature all around! We saw so many different birds and even a deer that walked through the backyard one morning. Host was great with communication and made everything easy.

Absolute Paradise- Perfect location

Just recently stayed April 2022-A perfect vacation home for a quiet and relaxing long weekend. (wish we stayed longer) - Check in was easy. Ann was quick to respond to any questions we had. The house was spacious, beautiful water views, very private location, very clean, close to town for pizza run, major stores close by. We actually cooked a full turkey dinner and Easter Ham ! Wi-Fi was awesome (just in case you need to check in with the outside world ;-) )- Over all a wonderful time to re-connect with our teenage children and a well needed break and everlasting memories. Thank you Ann.

Fantastic time on a salt water cove.

This property is one of a kind! A family home which has obviously been the location of very many happy memories. Quirky layout inside, fabulous huge deck overlooking Bourne cove with fantastic views. Quiet cove. Very quiet and secluded with nature preserves/walking trails nearby. If you are looking for a newly restored vacation location with high end knives in the kitchen and linen in the bed/bath, this is not the place for you. If you are seeking peaceful beauty and are in awe of layers upon layers of stars viewed at night from the dock - you've found your dream vacation. If you can spent hours watching the oyster farmers on the cove, be surprised by an osprey carrying an enormous fish in one claw taking a break on the dock, amuse yourself counting crabs of all sizes at the slack tides - then this is definitely the place for you! Very roomy in site. No fireplace inside or out. Birds abound in the trees with hours of heron/egret watching from the porch. Dogs welcome with plenty of areas for walking. Highly recommend for a restorative get away. Lots to enjoy for active family members and those who just need a good rest. One family member who has joined us for 8 years has declared this is the best vacation location yet and is looking to return next year.
