Driving Directions
388 Bound Brook Way, Wellfleet, MA 02667. From US-6, turn west on to Bound Brook Island/Coles Neck Road and follow the road for approximately 3 miles. For the last 1 mile of the drive, this is a dirt road through the forest. You will pass the Atwood Higgins House. Approximately .25 miles after the Atwood Higgins House, you will make a right turn onto Bound Brook Way in a heavily forested area from what appears to be the main road. This right turn is the correct road. We recommend arriving during daylight hours on your first trip to this property. The road receives minimal maintenance, and very low clearance vehicles may have difficulty accessing the property. Your GPS will bring you to the correct location.
