Quaker Beach is great, but it is not suited for large groups. It is a small, private beach reserved for this secluded community. Absolutely no beach parties or loud music! Bluefin is perfect for family groups and friends, however, the neighborhood is quiet, with several year-round residents, and the serenity of the surrounding area should be respected and preserved at all times. Our cottage is available for rent, but it’s also our home away from home. Please treat it with care and leave it in the condition you found it. Thank you!

Please note our home is dog friendly and we do allow adding your dogs to the booking. We do require that dogs be crated when no one is in the home. If you are bringing your dogs, please add them to the reservation prior to your booking request. While the house is thoroughly cleaned after each visit, we still ask you to consider this If you or anyone in your party has any allergies to dogs.

Please note we do have 3 surveillance cameras on the outside of the property near the entrances. These are not monitored during your stay, but are active at all times.

About the Owner:
Our Cape Cod roots run deep! Brendon grew up in Sandwich. His father was born and raised in Monument Beach (Bourne). His grandfather owned and operated a charter fishing boat named the “Bluefin” - hence Bluefin Cottage. We were married on Old Silver Beach in North Falmouth. We have 2 teenage daughters and have spent countless summer vacations with friends and family on the Cape.

What Makes This House Unique:
Location! Nestled in a quiet neighborhood with access to the Bass River and a private beach and nearby boat launch, but only a short drive to ocean beaches, this house offers the best of both worlds. So spacious, yet still maintains that cozy cottage feel. Plus, for those who can’t bear to leave their fur babies at home, it’s dog-friendly (for a small fee)!
