A Lovely Home and Spacious Property On Meadow's Edge
About this house rental
This beautiful and spacious house on a meadow's edge in Truro is on the boundary of the Cape Cod National Seashore. Equidistant from ocean beaches and Cape Cod Bay in what is unquestionably the Cape's least developed township, the multi acre property features a hard-surfaced tennis court and out-the-door access to woodland hiking trails and rural biking paths. Provincetown with its art galleries, wide range of restaurants, very lively nightlife and access to undeveloped dune lands is seven miles to the north, and the picturesque township of Wellfleet is five miles to the south. Our family is the fourth generation that has ties to the property. We come out every year with enthusiasm to work on the house and look forward to sharing it with others who will enjoy being there as much as we do. Outside the busy summer months, the house and property have been used on a number of occasions as a pleasant and affordable setting for outdoor weddings, as well as at times during the off season for family reunions and other special events. Nearly all of the family groups who come during the core summer weeks between July 4 and Labor Day are people who have ongoing ties to the house, although the house is often used at other times of the year as you will see when looking at the calendar. Because the house is of exceptionally high quality, it's not at all suitable for groups of folks who are looking for someplace that's to be used for large parties. A turnover cleaning fee of $410 is added to the cost of stays.

We have loved Truro for years. This house is on a wonderful cul de sac with lovely gardens and older homes. The house has plenty of space for us. Four adults and three young children. The kitchen was great too cool in and had plenty of equipment. We look forward to returning next summer.

Ben Read's historic home in Truro is a taste of the old Cape. If you decide to rent, you'll get the whole story of the house, which borders on the protected National Seashore park. After a 22-year hiatus from Truro, my wife and I brought our college age kids and my wife's sister's family for a week of beach, dining, hiking and more. This house turned out to be the perfect home base for those who love the lower Cape. It's quiet and private yet conveniently located to everything, from the Wellfleet Drive In up to Provincetown. The refinished tennis court (with pickle ball stripes) is a wonderful bonus. You won't be disappointed!

Everything was as advertised or better! Daily walks through the woods kept us well exercised. The kitchen is amazingly well equipped with just about any spice or oil you might need. Pots, pans, dishes, utensils - you name it - it was there!

Extraordinary beauty and peace
Our post-Christmas visit to this magnificent property could not have been better. We were looking for a quiet haven, close to hiking and beaches but still close enough to P'town to enjoy the food and shopping. This was the perfect property. The house is located right on the edge of the Cape Cod National Park and a beautiful wooded path takes you on glorious walks. We even followed paths from our house to the ocean -- to Ballston Beach -- totally secluded this time of year and magical. The house is beautifully and carefully appointed -- it is wonderfully welcoming. The kitchen is also well equipped so we were able to cook meals for the family. Ben was incredibly prompt with all communications. We hope to return often

Perfect Family Retreat
We had a fabulous time at Benjamin's house in truro. There was one small hiccup that Benjamin professionally, thoughtfully and immediately took care of. Everyone one in my family ages 2 through 60, had a great time. We recommend Benjamin and his house without hesitation.

Charming house in a lovely pastoral setting. Nice layout for multiple guests with fully stocked kitchen and grill for those that like to cook and enjoy a meal around the large dining room table. Short walk to Truro Center and close to Provincetown and National Seashore beaches. We had a very enjoyable stay.
