Wellfleet is all about rental houses in season and our date is on the edge of season. Rentals are generally weekly, Sunday to Sunday or Saturday to Saturday which is not that convenient for a Saturday event, though some list as 3-7 days. Rentals require that you bring or rent linens. If this is your excuse for a vacation in Wellfleet check WeneedaVacation.com  and Vacation Rental  By Owner, vrbo.com

 (This rental, Wellfleet Vacation Rental - ID 7634, is a house on Richman Lane right in our neighborhood, around the corner with a view of the harborHouse. It also has two cottages. But it is Saturday-Saturday. Emilia O’Dowd. If she is not fully rented, she might consider the weekend, but she was not especially forthcoming? Should we include this?)
