Large, charming Cape home in private setting near beach
South Wellfleet Vacation Rental - ID 29150

Enough space for 3 families. Enough fun for 10 families. Its kinda special to be able to walk the trail to the bay. Its fun to be chased by the hermitcrabs. Its fun to find shells, and dunk yourself in the bay!!! There are plenty of games I was particularly Monopolied out after playing it with my 5 grandaughters several nights. Easy home to like! It was a fabulous family vacation time, filled with memories and fun!!!

This is a large and lovely home in southern Wellfleet. The kitchen and the home in general is very well-stocked and well-maintained. The layout is perfect for several couples or families. The kitchen is larger than it appears in the pictures and was so functional! The living areas on the first floor were spacious and the deck with its multiple bird feeders was fabulous. I had worried there might be many mosquitoes due to the location of this property but we were never bothered at all either sitting on the deck or walking in the area. The first floor master bedroom which opens onto a hallway with first floor laundry and a door into the large, clean garage was perfect for my daughter's family that included a 3 month old. Private and so comfortable! The large Master bedroom on the second floor and two large bedrooms downstairs were also large and private.

I often hesitate to stay in homes where pets are allowed due to some family allergies but this house was so clean that there was never any evidence of previous pet stays.

The owner, David was easy to work with, Very prompt in responding to communications and always very helpful. Overall we all loved this house and hope we may be able to return for a stay next August. show more show less

Some specific memories we appreciated...we arrived to an immaculate house, found a very well stocked kitchen, we never ran out of silverware, mugs, glasses or plates. Any appliance we needed, you had.

Comfortable beds, great showers, especially the outside shower, plenty of space for quiet reading or group play, beautiful views of nature and great light, many choices of games and toys for all ages, bird watching is our new passion.

The fabulous deck, hammock and outdoor table created great happy hours and many happy meal times.

The hermit crab collecting, the kayaks, the local beach walks...!!! show more show less

A comfortable spot surrounded by the wonders of nature!
Staying at this lovely home felt like we were visiting friends. It was a perfect spot for our family gathering...featuring a wonderful great room with a big, long table for time together, plus separate spaces so we could find quiet time apart. The owners’ generous personalities came shining through. We enjoyed their kayaks and board games, used their very well equipped kitchen, borrowed their bird books to identify visitors to the patio feeder. The air conditioning kept us comfortable, as we had some very warm days. And the location away from city lights provided an extraordinary view of the night sky. The location was good for us, too. It was near some favorite Cape restaurants, with easy access to the national seashore.

We spent a wonderful week here.

Everything about the house made us feel at home. We loved that our dogs were welcome. We especially enjoyed the cross breezes on hot days and the spacious outdoor shower. We come to Wellfleet every couple of years and usually rent an ocean front property. We really loved being close to the bay on this visit. The short walk to the marsh below the house and to the Pleasant Point beach down the road offered wonderful low tide experiences to our grandson. We hope to return in coming years. />

The capehouse is great:charming, super comfortable and everything works! There was ample room for 8, 3 families including 4 children under 12. The deck is great too. There are 4 gathering places. The area is super convenient to beaches, ponds, and bay, no more than 10 minutes. It was a pleasure to deal with David and Cathy. They respond within minutes! We would love to return some day.

Our two families of 4 had a wonderful time at this comfortable property. We lacked for nothing - the kitchen was very well supplied - and the house's layout ensured privacy for all. The property backs up to a conservation trail, which was perfect for dog walks. The washer and dryer performed very well - there was always laundry going. Highly recommend!

Great house. Accommodated 10 of us easily and with privacy for three families. Location provided easy access to beaches, ponds, stores, ... All that access and the house was on a cul de sac! No traffic!
A special benefit was how accommodating the hosts were to us as first time guests. Quick and courteous response to our questions prior to arrival and even quicker when we arrived.
I guess the greatest compliment is that we want to go back next year. Kind of says it all.

We stayed at David's Cape house the week of the 4th of July. Everything was in tip-top shape when we arrived. It is a lovely home and pretty much everything you could need is provided. The location is convenient to ocean beaches, bay beaches, the harbor and Wellfleet Center, yet is secluded and feels off the beaten path. We were a relatively small group of 4 adults but the house is perfect for extended families with areas for congregating and areas for privacy. We only had to put on the A/C one afternoon but we were very glad to have it when it was needed! My dog and I walked the conservation trail behind the house and to Pleasant Point every day. The Cape Cod rail trail is close by and we took advantage of that. We had some terrific meals during our stay including at Pearl, Van Rensselaer, PB Boulangerie, Winslow's Tavern, and, of course, the Beachcomber. The rest of the time we lounged and grilled on the deck with a view of Drummers Cove. A perfectly relaxing Cape vacation in perfect Cape setting. We are looking forward to more happy times here!
