Welcome to Thumpertown Beach, where the spirit of fall meets the soul of Cape Cod. September and October bring what the locals call our “second summer”—warm bay waters, quiet beaches, and a softer rhythm that invites you to slow down and savor the Cape as it was meant to be.
As the crowds fade, the beach becomes your private retreat. Watch the sun melt into the bay in a blaze of amber and rose, then wander for miles along the flats in peaceful solitude. Back at the cottage, laughter drifts across the deck as bocce and badminton matches unfold under the autumn sky. Slip into the hammock, breathe in the briny air, and let the sound of the tide smooth out whatever stress followed you here.
Inside, this two-bedroom cottage offers all the comfort of home. The main bedroom has a full bed, while the second features a bunk with two twins, plus a sunroom with a trundle—ideal for kids or smaller guests. The full kitchen is stocked for easy meals, though local favorites nearby may tempt you out for chowder and cranberry cocktails instead.
With the Cape Cod Rail Trail just minutes away and the National Seashore and kettle ponds within reach, adventure and tranquility live side by side here. Thumpertown’s charm lies in its simplicity—warm light, salt air, and the promise of another perfect sunset.
