Walk to Cape Cod National Seashore-Salt Pond Visitors Center. Beach Shuttles
This property is in a prime location. Bringing or renting bikes or kayaks? Only 1/4 mile to Salt Pond Visitors Center at the Cape Cod National Seashore and quick easy access to the bike trail. This 3 bedroom 2 bath home is on a large corner lot shared with a one bedroom Cottage. A large, open, partially fenced lawn area complete with horseshoe pits and plenty of on site parking, even for your boat. This early 1900's farm house maintains that charm but with a now open 1st floor plan that accommodates families large and small. Along with a new outdoor shower, the 1st floor has the main bathroom, a kitchen with a gas stove which is an open dining and living room. Also on the 1st floor is the primary bedroom with a king bed. The second floor has another bathroom with a "kid size" shower and two bedrooms. One with two twins the other with a twin and bunks. This property also has a separate 1 bedroom cottage that has been completely renovated, that if available could make it the family compound by the sea that you're looking for.

Very convenient location, mid-Cape Cod, easy access to both ocean and bay beaches. Access to historical sites, shopping, Salt Pond, and Cape Cod National Seashore.House and yard very roomy, with plenty of beds for our guests.
Close to everything we love doing on the Cape… bay and ocean beaches and the bike path. Nice having the large bedroom on the main floor and the two bedrooms for our kids and grandkids on the upper floor for privacy. The layout is unusual but the house had everything we needed.
This was our first trip to the Cape and found this to be a great place to stay! There are great beaches nearby as well as a walking/biking path. It is also equidistant to both Hyannis and Provincetown which was very convenient. The house had all the necessary amenities (and a little extra) and was comfortable. The upstairs bedrooms have low clearance in some spots and would be tough to navigate for taller people.The upstairs shower is tight but useable for smaller individuals. And the outside shower is refreshing and handy. We cooked every other night and found everything we needed in the kitchen. The grill was handy as well.We reached out to Bob regarding a crack in the coffee pot, and he was there with a replacement within minutes to save the day.Would definitely stay here again and would recommend to others.
The property was clean, organized and well kept. The location was ideal for just about any cape excursion, close to all our favorite restaurants and beaches. The master suite was amazing, for my parents. The upstairs was small w a very tight access up the stairs. The shower upstairs was very tight and probably designed for small short people. We didn't use it at all because the outside shower more than made up for it..The host was very helpful.. The back door lock was a bit tricky, Overll we had an amazing week and loved the property.
Eastham location gives access to open ocean in minutes, and a 1/4 mile walk to the Salt Pond provides walking trails and kayaking opportunities.Many.good restaurants within a five-minute drive
House is roomy with much storage space.
Fabulous open space, great house and yard, perfect for our family group of people ages 5-87. Thanks to the owners for making our stay easy and for being so accommodating! Would definitely book this house again.
The home was very clean and spacious. It was perfect for our family. The location was wonderful and bob was very friendly and easy to get a hold of when needed. We would definitely recommend this home!
Great home! Very clean and roomy. Plenty of space for our family of four, with a spare bedroom we didn't even use. Perfect location for us. Very close to the Easton and Orleans beaches. Close to restaurants, the bike trail and shops. Owner was very easy to contact and very quick to reply whenever we had a question.
Was exactly as described by owner and other reviewers. It was very clean. Great location. We had 3 families there and plenty of room. My sister rented attached property which is even nicer. It did have musty smell coming from basement but not a big deal. Entrance steps have shallow treads and steep. No longer has fire pit as shown in pictures (kids a little disappointed.)

Great location close to beaches insides need some updating and better cleaning
We loved the location of this house close to salt pond visitor center. House was well stocked and grill was convenient. House was ok had a lot of beds but felt like an overused rental that could benefit from a deep clean and had some quirks. Steps going inside were very awkward and narrow with a hardwood floor overhang onto the first step down that was a bit dangerous going in and out. We were a bit disappointed in the condition of the inside. Too many bugs moths and spider webs around the house. Lots of hodgepodge furniture that seemed out of place and crowded. Lighting inside unit was very dimly lit and dark. The upstairs was small like an attic low ceilings and upstairs bathroom not very functional - shower extra small like a half shower for a kid and toilet too close to the wall. The stairs going up were also very narrow. The beds were not comfortable esp the king mattress just concaved and not firm at all. But we did enjoy our stay at the cape. The outdoor space was nice and we appreciated the towels and linens. The outdoor shower was also very nice. The main livingroom was fairly new and comfortable to lounge in.
The location of the property is a 5+! Easy access to the Salt Pond Visitor Center and the beaches of the Cap Cod National Sea Shore! Also just a short drive to Wellfleet and Provincetown.
The house itself was as pictured. The owner was great - checking in with us to see how our stay was going. There was ample parking with easy access to the house.
There were several things that we wished were different. The AC window units were not able to keep the house a comfortable temperature. The unit in the upstairs main bedroom was very noisy and switched on and off throughout the night. Possibly related to the AC issue was the smell. The basement and the main floor had musty smell. As you went up the stairs there was an ammonia order, it was strongest at the top of the stair and outside the bathroom but was noticeable throughout the entire area.
The description of the house did mention that the shower upstairs is small. That didn’t concern me. However, it wasn’t usable. The shower head is mounted on the side wall and is not adjustable. I am 5 1/2 feet tall and the water shot at the side of my head. We ended up having to all share the downstairs shower which made for late nights getting everyone through.
In the kitchen, the dishwasher was amazingly quiet! The knives and some of the other utensils could use an update. We tried them all but none were sharp enough to cut apples, etc.
We had a wonderful week. The house was large enough for 8 (4 kids 4 adults). It was close to many beaches, and to my favorite the coast gard beach. It is nice to bike or take the shuttle to go to this beach.The owner had Quick responses when we needed assistance. I would recommend this property.
We stayed at this property because it was convenient to Wellfleet where my son was getting married. The owners allowed us to have a small dinner for his rehearsal. The house is so conveniently located and there was plenty of room to spread out. We didn't get to do much beach time this time around on the Cape, but we did hike the Salt Pond trail out to Coast Guard Beach which was fun. All in all, it was a great week and I would recommend this property. And I would highly recommend a wedding on the Cape. It was beautiful!
The house was clean, comfortable, nicely decorated and spacious. I
We loved our week at this house. We had 8 adults and there was space to prepare meals, areas for privacy or quiet time
and comfortable sleeping. The living areas for gathering for dinner or watching TV were perfect. Wonderfull time for all of us to reconnect and recreate new memories of vacationing at the Cape as adults.
This property was able to comfortably accommodate our extended family, with plenty of space for meal time in the kitchen and socializing in the common areas, and a spacious grassy area for the kids to run around outside.
We had a wonderful experience for lasting family memories at this quaint property!
I have traveled to many facinating places for a vacation, but then here in Cape Cod I found a place where I found real rest and relaxation. The home was well furnished and in excellent condition. The house was quite comfortable and met all our needs. The quietude of the neighborhood and the closeness of the beach and shopping added to the benefits of this location. Thank you for providing the board games and I got better at throwing horseshoe.I really appreciate the exhibits on the walls. It gave us something to ponder.😊😊
Although large for two people, we chose this home because of the location, and it was a perfect choice. It is centrally located, so easy to explore the entire Cape. We did alot of bicycling, hiking and exploring all the towns. It was great not having to drive to the bike path or to the Salt Marsh visitor center and trails the days we went there.
Property is clean, comfortable and Bob was a responsive host while we were researching and booking.
A much needed small vacation on the Cape could not have been better accommodated by Bob and his lovely home! Extremely private, centrally located, and absolutely pristine! He could not have been more hospitable or helpful, and we'll be returning here time and time again! Thank you Bob!
My husband , teenage boys and myself were very happy with our rental. The home was very clean and had everything that we needed for the week. The location was great because we were only a few miles to the National seashore .

About the host
Hosted by Bob Field
In 1992 Lori and I were married and became business owners in the hospitality industry and have lived and worked here ever since. We've managed rentals for 15 years here and have enjoyed meeting so many wonderful people from near and far over that time. We're glad you're considering sharing the beauty, history and adventure that awaits you here on the Outer Cape.
Why they chose this property
This property features what was the original 'Cape Cottage' that was built in 1910 and was completely renovated in 2018. This one bedroom cottage (property# 3911603) is available for rent as well as this listing for the Main House which was built in 1918 as one of the few homes in the area at the time.
What makes this property unique
Renting the entire property (Cottage and Main House) lends itself perfectly to extended family or multi family vacations, so be sure to act early for availability of both.
