If you are looking for a perfect location, it does not get much better than this. This Waterfront home has 100+ feet of private beach for you to enjoy. You can swim in the clean sandy bottom lake, use the Stand-Up Paddleboards, Old Town canoe or kayaks to paddle around and explore, skip rocks, or just kick back and enjoy your private slice of heaven.

The home is also located on your own private beach and next to Seymour Pond's public beach area. If you walk across the property's fenced & tree-lined border, you will have several hundred additional feet of sandy beach area to enjoy (but there’s plenty of sandy beachfront right at the cottage)

The Cape Cod rail trail is right behind the front yard fence. There is a gate to take your bikes through. The Pleasant Lake general store is a mile ride down the trail for delicious sandwiches, burritos, wraps and ice cream!

Beautifully decorated lakefront home. From entry into the fully renovated kitchen you’ll find a dining area with seating 6 or 8.

The kitchen has all the cooking and dining utensils you will need. KitchenAid appliances with navy blue gas stove. Marble counters on the large island.

The Cape Cod Rail borders the home beyond the fence in the front of the house & we provide 4 adult bikes.

There are lots of great stop off spots close by where you can get ice cream, penny candy, dinner, margaritas, etc. You can bike ride, walk, or jog on this protected pedestrian path which extends all the way to Provincetown.

Just a short drive away, are several of Cape Cod's most beautiful ocean and bay side beaches. We are also just a short drive to Harwich port shops, and several great seafood restaurants. This property has so much to offer everyone, with lots of activities just outside the front door.

Wonderful home in the perfect spot!

We had an amazing stay at Aruna's home. The house itself is very clean and beautifully decorated. We were a family of 6 (4 teenagers!). The house was spacious enough for all and we were very comfortable. Also, the beds were great! I am always worried about the quality of the beds when we rent a home and these were fabulous. Really, everything in the house was perfect and just super easy to live in. The location was beautiful. With Cape Cod beaches being so packed (or super cold water), it was great to have the pond to swim in and play on. We were in the water every day. The teens, flexing their independence, went out and explored most days. My husband and I were very content to just hang out by the pond. We never felt the need to leave except to go check out some baseball games. There is a public beach next to the house so you are "sharing" with others but everyone is just out to enjoy themselves and, again, it's much more private than the beaches. Communication with Aruna was easy and she responded quickly to any questions (as in, can we use the extra beach towels??). You can tell she loves her home and wants others to enjoy it as well. We certainly did!

Wonderful vacation

We had a wonderful time at this property. It is very centrally located on the cape, so it never felt like we had to drive for a very long time. The kitchen was well stocked, and the home was very comfortable. We loved the beach right out the back door! The pond water was very warm and great for kayaking. Thanks for a great stay!

Idyllic property

The cottage is a beautiful well-appointed home on Seymour Pond. Loved the kayaks and paddleboards and watching sunsets from amazing back patio. Great kitchen and outdoor grill made cooking for our big family a breeze. The house was everything we could ask for! Highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Aruna McDermott

My husband & I have 3 Cape Cod properties. We live in NY but visit the Cape as often as we can. We love everything about the Cape and hope to retire there soon.

Why they chose this property

This cottage has it all! The waterfront is amazing. Just walk out the back door and its right there. No stairs! The house is decorated beautifully & the patio is even better!
