Charming - Central AC - 2 min walk to Nauset Light Beach!
Eastham Vacation Rental - ID 9597

We had a truly wonderful time in your beautiful beach home this past August. We are a very close and busy family that look forward every year to spending quality time together. We often turn off all the lights on the top floor of the spacious living area to watch the lights from the lighthouse pass through the windows...this has become our welcoming beacon.The home and property are meticulously cared for and beautifully furnished. The only downside was the week always goes too fast! We believe we have found the best spot on The Cape.

Everything that I look for in a vacation home rental was provided here. LOCATION: quiet, private setting, nicely landscaped, a short walk out the door to visit the Nauset Lighthouse, and a 2 minute walk from there to the beach. (Easy drive access to restaurants/grocery store).
HOME: spacious, updated, beautifully decorated w/ an open floor plan ~ ideal for preparing food/sharing meals or relaxing in the living room. The living area has many XL windows allowing for lots of light (at night when all the lights are off, the view is the light at the top of the lighthouse!). AMENITIES: everything you need (kitchen/beach amenities) except for towels and sheets which is typical of Cape Cod and outlined in the description. Homeowners were great to work with, and, having rented thru other home rental sites I can honestly say this was the best experience/rental our family has enjoyed!

Our family spent a week or two every summer in the Eastham area from our sons' babyhood through college. After many years away from the Cape, our now expanded family was ready to come back. The Spitler house was absolutely perfect for our six adults and two young children. There was plenty of room for everyone for sleeping, relaxing, and showering. The house was spotless and charming and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed. The lovely plantings surrounding the house added to the beautiful setting, including the views of Nauset Lighthouse. And the beach! An easy walk from the house, even carting all the "stuff" that young kids need at the beach. There is plenty of room on the beach to spread out. New bathhouses and bathrooms should be finished by 2023. But the house is so close, it's easy to walk home for a mid-day toddler nap or lunch. Over the years, we have stayed in many houses on the Cape. This is the best, and we look forward to returning.

We have rented the North Studio for many years, and always have a wonderful experience! The location is outstanding.....mere steps to the Nauset Light Beach, and the beautifully landscaped property offers a great deal of privacy. The house offers everything you need, with a great space to entertain guests - we've hosted many happy family gatherings here and renting the adjacent cottage is a great option for larger groups. Much appreciated are the beach chairs that are supplied with the house....everything you could want for a terrific time at the Cape is here!

Was there ever a more perfect house in which to spend time on the Cape? We have been regular visitors for over thirty years, and found this to be our best ever rental. Practically at the foot of Nauset Light, it is well appointed, comfortable, sunny, nestled in nature, and a very short walk to the beach.

We enjoyed ourselves thoroughly and can recommend this home without reservation.

Our second year at this home keeps us wanting to return. Everything at our finger tips for a relaxing family vacation. The walking access to Nauset Light Beach eliminates the need for using a car and allows us to go to the beach anytime day or night. The house is amazing, I especially enjoy the large kitchen and family room. We had many meals and game nights with plenty of space for all. The house is very clean and the beds are comfortable. Can't wait for next summer!

We had an amazing week at the "North Studio". The house was immaculate when we arrived. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was fully equipped, the propane grill was easy to use, and the living area was perfect for doing the many puzzles that come with the house.

It's a super easy walk down to Nauset Light Beach (we clocked it at 0.3 miles from the house to where we actually set up on the beach near the lifeguard stations). We were thrilled to be strolling past the long line of cars waiting to pay and park. The waves were perfect for boogie boarding and we got to see the occasional seal in the waves a bit further out.

At low tide, we hopped in the car and drove out to Cooks Brook Beach (you can buy a day pass at this beach), and the kids had an awesome time skim boarding. We also made good use of the Cape Cod Rail Trail, which was less than 2 miles away from the house and offered endless entertainment. We biked up to Marconi Beach one day and also visited the Salt Pond area another day. The house offers convenient indoor parking for the bikes in the basement, which can be accessed at the parking level. There was also a really good supply of beach chairs and boogie boards at the house.

One note - if you intend to visit any of the fresh water ponds or bayside beaches in Eastham, you might want to get a week long pass at the Eastham DPW at the beginning of your trip. They were only open Thursday to Monday from 9 am to 3 pm. We didn't do this and so could only go to Cooks Brook Beach or First Encounter Beach (the only beaches that allow you to purchase a day pass at the beach).

We would definitely rent here again. Thank you to Bruce and Karen for a very lovely visit!

We had a fantastic week in this beautiful home! The house was very clean and the kitchen had everything we needed to make family meals. We loved being able to walk to the beach and not having to worry about driving, full parking lots or paying to park. Even though it is so close to the beach, it felt very secluded and private and there was not a lot of traffic on the road. The house also has umbrellas and beach chairs—one less thing to pack! One recommendation is to reserve a night to have a bonfire on the beach the first morning because they fill up several days in advance. We hope to come back to this lovely home.

We have been staying in rental homes at the Cape annually for many years. We have searched for "the perfect house" to come back to each year and WE FOUND IT!! The proximity to the beautiful Nauset Light Beach is this clean, bright home with ample parking for our family. It's cozy and warm, comfortable patio and with great owners to work with. My grandchildren loved the bunk beds, roamed around outside and easy walk to our favorite beach. We were very happy with this house and can't wait to return. Thank you for a great vacation!

The North Studio was more than a comfortable beach house to gather with family, it was a delightful experience. The ease of walking to the Nauset Light Beach anytime day or night added so much to our vacation. Sitting in the second floor living room looking out the windows felt like we were in a tree house, especially at night. The house has everything we needed, the kitchen and dining space are well equipped and spacious. The living room is perfect for families to gather, do puzzles, watch movies and relax. The bedrooms and bathrooms are very comfortable and clean. The outdoor shower is a must!

Our week was fantastic! Being able to walk to the beach was absolutely the highlight! We celebrated a 16th birthday mid-week with friends from England and Idaho. Everyone loved the house and the funky upside down layout. We ordered our towels and linens from one of the local places which was perfect! The home is well appointed .... There was nothing that we needed and really appreciated having chairs and umbrellas for the beach provided. The hammock was lovely!

My extended family and I have stayed at both the South and North Cottages every June for about the last fifteen years (I understand they can be rented separately). Everyone looks forward to the trip and we have not considered staying anywhere else during this time.

These homes are well-furnished, neat and clean. "Cottages" is a misnomer because they have all of the comforts of a permanent family home. The kitchens are well-equipped and we"ve had countless large family dinners and good times. The houses are nicely furnished and spacious enough for everyone to gather comfortably or to find their own space. The beds/mattresses are comfortable. There are nice outdoor patio spaces with barbecue grills and plenty of seating for a crowd. It"s great that we can accommodate our entire extended family in these co-located properties.

One of the biggest draws of these cottages is being located right next to Nauset lighthouse and a short walking distance to Nauset Light beach. Beachgoers have the flexibility to come and go from the beach without having to coordinate with the group, with no driving or beach stickers are required. There are also plenty of outdoor chairs to take to the beach.

If there"s been any glitches with a house, those have only been minor and resolved quickly. The hosts have been nice to work with and responsive. These cottages are a great place to vacation on the National Seashore.

We enjoyed our stay in the North Studio very much. There was enough room, spread out over the multi-level property, for our 3 generational family to have their own space. Everything was updated and very clean, and every item we could have possibly needed was provided in the kitchen.

The location was amazing! So handy to be able to walk to the beach and watch the seals playing in the water. We enjoyed walking the mile or so from our beach to Coast Guard Beach. Having Nauset Lighthouse right in the back yard was the cherry on top. We took so many photos!
