The Rugosa is a gorgeous, 10 room family run boutique guest house with a beautiful, private back yard, gardens, and sunny patio seating area. This eclectic property has undergone many transformations in recent years and is now under fresh, new management. Entirely redecorated, this traditional, antique New England home has been transformed with colorful paintings, folk art, found objects and houseplants.

We are a small family run guest house. We do not have 24 hour services at this time. We love interacting with our guests, but sometimes we don't get to meet everyone. We will make every effort possible to meet you for check-in, however if we are not available to meet you when you arrive, you will find an envelope with your name on it containing a welcome letter, directions to your room and your room key.

North Eastham is such a great area due to its proximity & accessibility to both Provincetown and Orleans. There is so much to see & explore on the "forearm" of Cape Cod, with some of the most dramatic beach views around. The ocean-side beaches up this way are known for the surf and the bay side is perfect for families with young children. Within 5 minutes of the Rugosa, there are several iconic fish & chips restaurants, bars, ice cream cafes, delis, markets, shops, and the best damn taco place on all of Cape Cod. Surf lessons, bike rentals, and a great yoga studio are all minutes away. The Wellfleet Drive In movie theater and flea market is just over a mile away and is a favorite summer activity of guests and staff.
