Charming small cottage

Whale Song had everything one could want in a small space. The outdoor table and chairs provided a great place for meals or reading. The pond beach and canoe were lots of fun. Tara was incredibly responsive. All in all a five star experience.

Whale Song is a tiny charming cottage.

We returned to stay at Whale Song for a few days again this summer. It is a tiny, but charming cottage and could not be better maintained, cleaned or equipped. There has clearly been a great deal of attention to every detail. It is in a few minutes walk down a private, wooded road to a quiet, small sand beach with canoes and kayaks on a pretty pond. The kitchenette has everything you could need for its size. The outdoor shower is scrupulously clean, and feels very private.If you don't need a large space, it's perfect for two people to relax and enjoy the outdoors.

Great location, easy walk/bike to coast guard beach and the salt pond visitors center. the cottage itself was the perfect size for two people just wanting a little getaway, and the outdoor area was great for sitting at night. The host was also super communicative, quick responses, and helpful!

Adorable and cozy!

We had a great experience the four nights we stayed at Whale Song. Tara provides everything needed plus more for a great stay in Cape Cod. The neighborhood was beautiful and quiet and you’re a quick walk/run to the Salt Pond visitor center which was fun to explore. Also a short drive to some of the best beaches on the Atlantic cost (Marconi and Nauset). Can’t say enough good things about this BnB for two!

We enjoyed our stay at Whale Song. Cleanliness, communication, privacy were all excellent. How small is this place? The building dimensions are 12 feet by 16 feet. That leaves room inside for a tiny water closet, a comfortable queen sized bed, a love seat, a kitchenette, and a very thin table with 2 chairs. The kitchenette was very well equipped, including coffee and tea, and we found everything we needed for preparing simple meals. There is ample space outdoors for dining. Great location for beaches and rail trail.

Cute, but to small

Property looked as it was portrayed online on the inside. Nice and clean, but smaller then I expected, especially with a large dog crate taking up a lot of room. Outside shower was nice..plenty of hotwater. Patio and yard furniture could use a little tlc and new (and more!) Citronella candles were needed. Overall, well suited for a young, petite couple, not a 300lb man and his 60lb dog.

Short but Sweet

I was greeted by the homeowner with a bag of treats welcoming to the cottage.Myself and my partner loved the outside shower….it was very quiet surroundings and the lake was a 5 minute walk.and you were close to north Truro and Provincetown.The cottage was perfect and we bought our dogs and they loved the surroundings.It was a last minute thing before my knee surgery and we loved it.😊😊

Great host

Tara was a great communicator. There was an unavoidable issue with hot water that she immediately dealt with. When the issue was looking like it might take more than an hour or two. She offered up a nicer location nearby. The house was classic cape cottage quaint with attention to small details. The bed needs to be replaced.

Whale Song in a Gale

Tiny and cute converted shed which kept us dry for the first 36 hours of our stay as the rain kept us indoors most of the day. The main lighting for this small space came from the 3 bulbs attached to the ceiling fan. Unfortunately, they were all "bright white" bulbs making the lighting of this otherwise romantic space, stark and cold. Also, power outlets were oddly placed behind the bed headboard (fire hazard?) and the occasional table that acted as the kitchen table (had to pull the table away from the wall to use the outlet.) It would have been nice to understand where Minister's Pond was relative to the hut as we didn't discover it until minutes before we left.

Amazing!

My husband and I had an amazing time in The Whale Song! Floating in the fresh water pond is my favorite. All of the little amenities were absolutely fabulous from snacks to breakfast bars, coffee and tea, to soaps and lotions! Tara went above and beyond to get us into this tiny cottage that we’ve been staying in for 7 years. She even brought fresh cut flowers from her garden. Highly recommend staying in any of her properties!
