We loved the privacy and location of this house. Great views of nature in every direction.

The cabin was big and beautiful as in the pictures! The location was definitely beautiful and quiet, great for a serene getaway. The location was not far from the closest part of town, but to the end of town was a bit far to walk. Would definitely recommend using the rentable scooters or bikes if you’re not bringing a car. Regardless, the hosts were very responsive and the house was everything you could hope for!

This property is gorgeous, yet located close to town. It's spacious and comfortable (the beds are super comfortable), and ideal for a group stay. You must take a walk on the path near the house to Herring Cove Beach. You will meander through the sand dunes and marshes and find your way to this beautiful, interesting beach. This was one of the highlights of our stay!

Absolutely loved our winter stay here. I can’t imagine a more perfect location. Sits up on a bluff overlooking the marshes. Gorgeous sunsets, beautiful sunrises. Huge working fireplace that we made good use of. Nice supply of well dried wood just outside. Close to town, close to the beaches and dunes. Very comfortable and well-equipped home. Enjoyed every moment and would highly recommend.

This is a property that I wouldn't mind owning myself! Very private, very well laid out, very attractive/upscale (you get what you pay for, of course!) We saw a coy-wolf on the deck one day (beware those of you bringing pets/children!) Loved the fireplace and pool table/ping pong table for November evenings which begin early. Very functional kitchen, as I was able to cook all meals, including Thanksgiving dinner.

Had a great 4-night stay with a group of friends. House is great and in-line with expectations set by pictures. Location is ideal for those looking to be just slightly outside the center of Ptown (short drive or a pleasant walk). Strongly recommend!

Most incredible location in Provincetown! Large log cabin well stocked and beautifully maintained. No other houses in sight, just beautiful salt marshes and fabulous sunsets!

Having stayed in many places in Ptown over the years this is our favourite home. A little bit off the beaten track offers lots of space both indoors and out for a large group to enjoy yet still less than 5 mins on your bike to Commercial.

Great!

We had a wonderful time at Janet and Steve’s home. The house itself is wonderful, well equipped and comfortable for our group of six. The quiet and secluded location was equally wonderful. Dinner on the back deck watching the sunset was a truly magical experience. We hope to stay again! The only minor downside is the fourth sleeping area in the basement, which has no windows. The bed is comfortable and the lack of light was OK for us but just something to be aware of.

Although only a five minute drive from central Provincetown, this home feels a million miles away. It’s on a small hill with NO other structures visible, just vistas of a pond in the National Seashore with lily pads, herons, and one morning two coyotes. The house was designed with decks on two sides — one with rocking chairs, the other wider with chaise longues and a dining table — so you can choose your preferred view for morning coffee or sunset cocktails. Inside, it’s artfully furnished with three spacious and light bedrooms, and a fourth windowless bedroom next to the downstairs game room that would be suitable for a teen or flexible adult. The master bedroom and living room/dining room have fantastic pond views. The “great room” provides welcoming space to dine, play games, or chat as a group. Yet the house also has a variety of semi-private spaces — a small sitting loft overlooking the great room, a sun room, the two decks, a game room — so people can easily enjoy alone time with a book or their computer. The kitchen was VERY well equipped with dishes, nonstick cookware, spices and gadgets. (The only thing missing was a lobster pot and nutcrackers: bring your own if you want to cook lobster.) It is a 15-minute walk along a “secret” trail of woods and dunes to Herring Cove Beach! Or bike out the door and in a couple of minutes join the bike trail through the National Seashore. All told, this was one of the most beautiful and memorable rental homes we’ve ever stayed at. For us, it was a “splurge” — but well worth it and a visit we will always remember.

Would stay there again in a heartbeat!

Great house with beautiful views, especially at sunset. Very spacious, no tripping all over each other here. Would definitely stay again if we come back to Provincetown with a large group. Specifics: Main floor has the main living space (open plan living room/dining room/kitchen), the large primary bedroom with en-suite bathroom, and a half bath. There's also a screened in sun room (we didn't use that since it was 90 degrees outside) and a great deck looking out over the pond. Kitchen is definitely well-equipped, if you can't find what you're looking for just keep looking. It's probably there somewhere. The upper floor has two large bedrooms and the second full bath, plus a small sitting area looking out the huge windows and over the main floor living area. The basement has a game room (pool table), the fourth bedroom, and the garages. As some reviews have mentioned, the bedroom is comfortable but a little awkward location with the pool table right outside the french doors and the bathrooms upstairs. The host is very responsive and communicative, she warned us the day before the mosquito treatment contractor was coming and replied to any questions we had right away. About the mosquitos, we also spoke to the town (or county) mosquito control guy since he also visited the property during our stay and mentioned how much treatment he had done in the area. Despite all that, mosquitos will still be present. We brought area repellents for the deck and used the sprays provided for our walks into town and that kept everything under control. The deck has plenty of chairs and was a great gathering spot in the morning for coffee and in the afternoon before heading into town for dinner. It's a 20-30 minute walk into town, depending upon where you're headed. If you want to walk to Herring Cove once you know the way that's about 15 minute walk. It took us a little longer, but we got a little turned around and didn't go directly to the beach. We had a great time in Provincetown, and where we stayed was a big part of that.

We had an amazing time at this clean and wonderful log home - this was our second stay here. It is the perfect location. You are so close to the beach and town yet also have so much privacy and in a relaxing and beautiful location. It is just perfect!

The host, Janet, was incredibly communicative throughout the year we awaited to begin our vacation (yes, we booked a year in advance!), as well as during our trip. The location is a bit far from downtown than other properties, but is really only a short bike ride away. I definitely got my exercise in, and the neighborhood was gorgeous to ride through. The property itself was large and comfortably fit all 8 of us (we did double up in our beds). The property was also incredible, private, and every inch was beautiful, including the sprawling landscapes of which we had views from each window and deck/porch. The amenities (A/C, grill, kitchen supplies) were as-advertised and working. I would happily book with this property again.

Very quiet and tranquil place. Lovely sunsets and bird watching. We really enjoyed our stay.

Great house and unbelievable privacy

Great location Amazing comfortable home Very beautiful and exceeded expectations Views were gorgeous Love P Town and will rent again here for sure!

My family and I had a great weekend here. Janet was super responsive to our messages. It made us feel very welcomed and tended to. We had the cabin all to ourselves in the proximity of the nice landscape that we explored. We really enjoyed our time here with the view, the fresh air and all cape cod has to offer.

Beautiful house and property as described. Hard to believe a property has that much privacy with a location that close to Provincetown. The owner was very responsive with any issue we had. A great rental.

The place was beautiful inside and out. Cozy and spacious at the same time. A spectacular location with a beautiful walk to the beach. Great cooking supplies and cooking space. It was a great reunion spot for our family of young adult kids. It may be helpful to know that soundproofing between rooms - up and down and on the same level - is pretty minimal if that matters to you. It wasn’t a problem for us (made for some good “watch what you say” jokes) but may be useful to others. We loved it and highly recommend!

The cabin was absolutely gorgeous, bigger than the pictures showed. We enjoyed the privacy of the grounds, but also being so close to town. Never knew we could find the rustic elegance of the autumn foliage surrounding a log cabin but the beach and Ptown life steps away! Highly recommend!

My family needed a place to stay for my son and daughter-in-law's wedding in Provincetown. This house was perfect!! It was very comfortable and spacious. The views were amazing. Close to all the engagements we were attending over the weekend. My son hosted his groomsmen at the house the morning of the wedding. It was all we hoped for and great for pictures. I only wish we had planned to spend more time there to relax and fully enjoy the views. Would definitely rent again.

Right from the get go I knew this was going to be a great stay. Janet & Steve (who I had the pleasure to meet as we were packing up) were responsive to all my questions. I was the 1st to arrive and to say I was bowled over is an understatement. The minute I started the drive up the road I knew I was in for something special - but whenever I came around the last bend and saw the garden & house I just had to stop and stare. I thought I must have taken a wrong turn and ended up in the mountains of Vermont. The house is spectacular and the setting is so private and quiet. Exactly what I was looking for when I was there by myself for a few days. The friends and family who stayed were all posting pictures on Facebook and boy were there a lot of envious people. I was there for my niece's wedding at the Provincetown Inn and many of the guests staying there had to come by and see it for themselves. My sister (mother of the bride) came out early and spent Wednesday with me. She said we should have had the wedding there - deck and rear yard would have been perfect and with the sunset - who could ask for more. The kitchen was so well equipped that I ended up cooking more meals than expected instead of dining out. And there are an awful lot of restaurants I had planned on trying. Oh well - next time. If you're a sun person - there was plenty of that and for those that prefer to lounge in the shade with a good book - the front porch was ideal. And for the one day it rained for a bit - the enclosed porch was a cool and breezy place to sit and hang out. Fortunately there was an evening or two when it was cool enough to use the fireplace and we're glad we did. The stonework itself is an amazing work of art - the fire only emphasized its' beauty. The bedrooms are huge - the beds very comfortable and plenty of blankets and quilts if needed. I'm very particular about my pillows and I didn't even have to take mine out of the bag. Ceiling and floor fans in every room for those that prefer fresh air. House has central AC for those days where it might be really hot - but there was always a breeze the 10 days I was there. If you're looking a for a place to get away with friends for a reunion, overflow for wedding guests or just to be somewhere that just feels 'right' - stay here. PS: I happen to see a picture of a picture of Janet & Steve's property in Costa Rica. I see a trip to Central America in my future with a few lucky friends.

I've been coming to Provincetown since I was a child and all I can say is... wow. I had no idea properties like this even existed! Close enough to town that you can pop in at a moment's notice, yet you feel like you're on your own private estate at the tip of the cape. Do not hesitate to stay here, you won't regret it - and your friends won't believe how amazing the site and house is!

The good: The landscaping and the setting of the house are beautiful, and it is surrounded by nature. Its setting makes for a very peaceful stay. The inside has a lot of space for gathering your group/family. The bad: This house does NOT have four bedrooms; the misrepresented fourth "bedroom" is a partially enclosed area of the basement without a window, closet, or bathroom. The $470 cleaning/owner admin fee is exceedingly high given the atypical expectations of guests at check-out: launder all of the linens; empty and haul any remaining trash down the long driveway; and clean and put away all dishes. Although the house is clean, it is not tidy: for example, overstuffed kitchen cabinets and closets full of misfit housewares and hardware supplies. Most of the furniture and fixtures haven't been updated in many years. The remote location is not convenient to any retail, restaurants, or beaches; it's not easily walkable and is at least a15 minute bike ride to the center of town. These largely would be non-issues if the house were priced accordingly, but at this price, you can get something better.
