Description |
Our Cape Cod vacation rental homes are located near the beach--about 2 miles to the Cape Cod Bay and 2.5 miles to the ocean beach--on a secluded, two-acre hilltop lot overlooking the Cape Cod National Seashore. The two-bedroom main house, which has been featured in a national magazine and two books, enjoys a water view of the bay and 7-mile distant Provincetown from its rooftop deck. The one-bedroom guest house is connected to the main house by a 150-foot path. There's another path to the guest house from a separate parking area, which is used when the houses are rented separately. This home has a handcrafted hardwood interior and is perfect for a couple, a small family, or as a "space of our own" for older children. Choose either house or for the best value take both!
