About this apartment rental
Wellfleet's newly updated, historic 1825 Peake House in the heart of the village welcomes you! Steps from Main Street, town pier, restaurants, and Mayo Beach. This is Wellfleet urban living at its best. Walk out of the Peake House front yard and take a right and you are four houses from Mac's Shack; take a left and you're a half dozen houses from the Town Pier. Peake House itself is part of a larger property that abuts Wellfleet's Commercial street on one side and Duck Creek down on the water.
Close to an array of ponds and ocean beaches. Perfect for active aesthetes who hate the hassle of driving. Ideal for kayakers, chefs, bikers, artists & writers and anyone looking for the peace, relaxation and fun of a Wellfleet visit. The best location in Wellfleet. We have just recently begun renting this apartment for seasonal stays.
Peake House features sunrise views from the kitchen and living area out towards Duck Creek. The house was built nearly years ago by whaler merchant Samuel Peake. This Commercial Street house is halfway between the town pier and Mac's Shack. Walk to everything from this beautifully & sensitively renovated second story modern flat with original wide pumpkin pine plank wooden floors, gourmet kitchen with all new appliances, brand new bathroom, Algerian tile accents and original works of art. Never before rented seasonally, this quiet apartment combines the charm of the old and the convenience of the new in a quiet home with views to Duck Creek and the surrounding neighborhood. You don't need a car if you stay in Peake House. Walk to Mayo Beach, the town pier, Wellfleet village center and a number of renowned restaurants. Bring your bicycles and ride to town beaches and everything Wellfleet has to offer.
The best-located rental in Wellfleet for visitors and residents needing temporary accommodations who want to enjoy the town, the bay and the beach without the hassle of driving. In the heart of Wellfleet Center Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Great for kayakers, Peake House is steps from Duck Creek itself, with peekaboo waterviews from the drive, from the shared deck and from the living room and kitchen.
Peake house is next to the Moorings and across the street from the Holden Inn, four houses from Mac's Shack on one side and a half dozen houses from the Town Pier and the numerous dining options there and on and around Mayo's Beach. Walk to Wellfleet's many galleries, Uncle Tim's Bridge, and any other in-town location. Experience sunsets from the pier, food from any of many options, and the Wellfleet Harbor Stage, a three-minute walk away. You don't need a car if you stay at Peake House.
Peake House has a shared deck for outside dining. There's a coin-operated laundry in the basement. Guests may put their kayaks in on Duck Creek behind Peake House on the same property.
We are available to answer your questions if you need assistance or advice.

Immaculate, well-appointed apartment with all the amenities and none of the clutter. Inviting space with cool, eclectic artwork. I misplaced my key the second night I was there and the on-site property manager, Steve, had to leave work to come give me a spare. He could not have been nicer or more gracious, which I greatly appreciated. Beautiful place in a beautiful town!

Comfortable space for a couple. Lovely apartment and view! Easy walk to groceries/restaurants and Mayo Beach. We drove to many different nearby swimming beaches—so many to choose from (after paying for resident parking permit). The bedroom felt rather dusty. We assumed there would be beach towels (we had to buy some) and expected higher-quality bath towels for the price, but we would definitely stay here again.

Chased out by Hurricane Lee but otherwise very good week. Good location with nice view of Duck Creek area. Probably best view of the 5 apts in main house. Mgr super-attentive. Nice layout of apt, very clean. Would definitely consider staying again.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Awesome location close to town and within easy walking to the marina and public beach. Nice view and breezes from nearby Duck Creek. Easy access to and quick response from the property owner who shared helpful tips for making the most of our week on Cape Cod.

Sweet, recently renovated apartment in a vintage house, perfect for a couple or single. It's the only residence on the 2nd floor, very private. Lots of windows, a fully equipped kitchen, a comfortable bed, nice shower. Charming artwork on the walls. There are two single futon "couches" in the living area, comfortable for lounging and could sleep two children. Window air conditioner is noisy, but we only needed it on the hot day we arrived. You can walk to everything in Wellfleet from here--including the market, if you want to stock the fridge. If you sit on the porch to read you might notice some traffic on Commercial Street, but it's quiet at night, not a problem. Really a lovely spot!

We loved our Wellfleet stay at this property! The 2nd floor space means gorgeous views of the bay while from your exquisitely decorated living room window. The hosts were helpful and lovely. We couldn't have asked for a better stay.
4.0 / 10.0
The apartment is centrally located, but uncomfortable. The outdoor spaces are shared and were busy when we were there. The bed and couches are uncomfortable. It wasn't ready on time (90 minutes late) and insufficiently cleaned. Nice historic home, but we left early even though we love Wellfleet.

What an amazing place ! Walking distance to a lot of restaurants and bars. The pictures do not do this place justice. Eva was so accommodating. Her sister Sarah lives on the property as well as her mother and father we talked to them all they really made our trip. You can’t beat the view from the back yard!!! We already want to go back again.

I gave the Peake House, second floor apartment five stars for a few reasons the first of which being that it perfectly met our expectations for the weekend we had planned. To explain, we are very familiar with Wellfleet and we were there for a four night weekend to attend a wedding. We wanted some space (bigger than a motel room) and a good location that we could comfortably retreat to from the multiple festivities of the wedding weekend. The apartment itself was quaint, clean and comfortable. Ample room for two people. The kitchen was well equipped. Full sized refrigerator. Nice, full size stove. Plenty of counter space with a good size dining counter (there is no dining table). The bathroom had plenty of room for our things and a good shower (no tub). The bedroom was good sized, the bed was comfortable and there was plenty of room for us to unpack our clothes. This is not a “view” rental per se but you could see the tidal creek behind the property from the living room and kitchen windows. You have access to the property and we spent some peaceful morning time sitting in very comfortable lawn furniture looking out on Duck Creek in the properties back yard. The front porch on Commercial St. is a great spot to sit and watch folks go by. It’s an easy walk to a number of restaurants in the village as well as the Wellfleet Market, liquor store, harbor and bay beach. Sara, the proprietor, was helpful but unobtrusive. A special, unexpected treat; the apartment was full of great art, much of which was created by Sara’s mom.
This is a different Wellfleet experience from renting a cottage but the convenient location in the village was an immersive and enjoyable experience.
