Located in the historic Cape Cod town of Sandwich, MA, our property features spacious RV campsites and charming vacation rentals. We are just over the Sagamore Bridge, a short drive to the heart of Cape Cod. Only minutes away from Cape Cod's top attractions, including museums, scenic ocean beaches, and delicious seafood shanties. There’s something for everyone to enjoy! Our secluded, pet-friendly campground is nestled in a tranquil natural setting alongside one of the cleanest swimming ponds on Cape Cod. Whether you are looking for a weekend RV retreat or a longer stay in one of our Cape Cod cottage rentals, we have the perfect vacation spot for you. Our quaint cottages border the crystal-clear waters of Peter’s Pond, a 127-acre spring-fed kettle pond. Swim out to the raft, relax, float on a tube, and enjoy family fun in the cool water. We offer rowboat and sunfish sailboats plus dock rentals with convenient boat ramp access, all just steps from our sandy beach. Our large RV park sites are wooded and peaceful, with plenty of room. We offer full hookups: water, electricity, and sewer. The sites are pull-through with a picnic table. If you love fishing, the pond is stocked with Brook, Brown, Rainbow, and Tiger trout as well as largemouth and smallmouth bass. It was featured in The Fisherman Magazine in February 2022.

Join us for weekly campfires and have s'mores at the beach. There are plenty of opportunities for outdoor adventures in our campground. Hike the small walking trail and discover local fauna and woodland creatures. Your child will love exploring the woods and discovering the wonders of nature. Our main attractions are swimming and building sandcastles on our private beach. However, nothing compares to catching crawfish with a flashlight or chasing fireflies on a hot summer night! Please note: Pets are allowed with proof of vaccination. There are single-stall restrooms but no bathhouse on-site — we only accept self-contained units. If you would like to bring a boat, please reach out for dock rentals or trailer storage. Thank you.

Sweet little house with a good setup. Felt great to be inside rather than tenting while visiting the area. Outdoor shower and toilet, more comfortable than boon-docking or car camping. Quiet area.

Weekend Trip to Tidy Treehouse

The Tidy Treehouse was perfect for my stay. The hosts were very accommodating. The house was clean, had a bed, refrigerator, and a microwave. It was a tiny space, but I was by myself, so it was more than I really needed. The location was perfect. Very quiet under the trees. I would definitely go back.
