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 styleâwith salty toes, fresh seafood, and nowhere else to be.

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 â 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 youâre 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 youâll 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 â 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.
