You'll find a different wonder of Cape Cod waiting in each direction from this lovely home on a wooded lot in Eastham. Ideally located mere steps from the Cape Cod Rail Trail, this house places you a short walk from Herring Pond (one mile), an easy bike ride from First Encounter Beach on Cape Cod Bay (two miles), and a few minutes' drive from Coast Guard Beach (four miles) and other beautiful parts of Cape Cod National Seashore.

This single-story home is scenically situated on the Outer Cape, where it sits between the heart of Eastham (one mile north) and Orleans (three miles south). Close by, find bike rentals, the Eastham Public Library (one mile), and a wide assortment of beaches for every preference.

The house offers a classic Cape Cod experience, starting with a large back deck where you can lounge in the sun and dine in the coastal breeze each evening. You'll have a gas grill for your summer barbecues, a backyard where your kids can play, even a Ping-Pong table for high-stakes family tournaments.

Sunlight seems to find every corner of the open living space, from the well-equipped kitchen (offering an air fryer!) to the dining room and living room. Spend fun-filled nights at home playing board games, working on puzzles, and streaming your favorite movies on the smart TV. Additional amenities include beach games, an outdoor shower and private washer/dryer to welcome you back in the afternoons, and complimentary WiFi.

Pros and Cons

Overall we enjoyed our stay here. A few minor tweaks would take this house from just "nice" to "a lovely dream". Pros: great location by the bike trail; quiet, attractive street; beautiful natural light; well-equipped kitchen; comfortable deck furniture; great for kids 7+; bike and beach gear storage in the basement; outdoor shower; convenient to First Encounter, Great Pond, Herring Pond, Coast Guard Beach, Orleans. Cons: had to empty the basement dehumidifier 2x per day to keep the house from smelling like mildew; Captain's Quarters queen size bed was too soft and sagged in the middle; basement steps are a safety hazard (no gate to keep a child from falling down the stairs)
Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2024
