About this house rental

As a host/owner of this home quality is more important to me than quantity. I am looking for respectful folks not big party/drinking types. "Everything in moderation". Just folks that want to have a good time/but not too good of a time where anything would get broken, or my adjacent distant neighbors would be upset or disturbed. Please be honest about the number of guests and visitors you may have during your stay. Let's talk about it I am a reasonable person......With that being said this house is ultra private and one of the most unbelievably beautiful spots on earth!

Built in 1895, this iconic home is the subject of many Cape Cod postcards, and was the movie sight location for the early 1980's Henry Fonda film "Summer Solstice". Formerly called the "Robins Roost" was just rescued/moved back from a spactacular eroding coastal bluff and professionally restored. You will not find better amenities, beach, or views in Cape Cod. You are perched above Ballston's beach with a private trail onto the beach from the front door. Views inside the house are unobstructed directed at the Atlantic Ocean to the East and the Pamet Valley Basin to the West (The sunrises, sunsets and all day views from every room in the house can not be rivaled). Every bedroom has a beach and ocean view. The waves are easily audible and will lull you to sleep every night. The location is uber private and tranquil (you will not deal with neighbors or interruptions of any kind during your stay. If you are a famous person (no problem/no one will know you are there).

There are miles of beach to roam along the Cape Cod National Seashore right out of the screened porch and down to the beach along your private trail.

Inside the home is tastefully furnished with a dining table for 10, breakfast nook for 8, multiple sitting areas, a custom gas fireplace. The home also has new bathrooms and gourmet kitchen with subzero fridge and Thermador range. There is a 42" TV in the main living area and a widescreen TV in the basement. (currently working on some games in the basement with bar and ping pong table...please inquire about these amenities). There are 4 bedrooms with 3 kings and 2/twins. There are also some other sleeping options (ask when you inquire).
More pictures will be posted soon as construction will be complete by end of April.
Wellfleet and Provincetown are a 10-15 minute drive. World famous "Moby Dicks Seafood is a 7 minute drive. There is a liquor store, sandwich shop, fish market and regular market all within 5-10 minutes.
Minimum one week stay required in the summer. Discount for 2 weeks and longer. 4 nights required in the offseason unless you are an easy group (send me an inquiry). Corporate meetings welcome. 8 occupants negotiable if there are additional children I will consider. This house is located on a coastal bluff. It’s quite simple to keep away from the edge of the Bluff as it is 80 feet away from the deck through seagrass, but I would still caution folks to watch out for young children if they are part of your group.

Additionally this is a spectacular direct waterfront coastal location with 3 acres of seagrass. This means that insects and mice are part of the habitat. I do spend quite a bit of money to control insects and have worked towards complete elimination of mice.
Occasionally you may encounter pest control employees during your visit, but they work exclusively on the outside of the house.
Despite our best efforts, some of these critters occasionally “slip through the cracks”.

It is my intention by hiring professionals to try and keep these critters to a minimum.

What you imagine when you think of a Cape Cod beach house. This is a lovingly-restored, historic gem, oceanside in the Cape Cod National Seashore. It's kick-back comfortable, spacious and well-appointed (think Thermador, SubZero) - we did Thanksgiving without a care - and its location, ambience and views will leave you wanting more. Chris and Jen are considerate and skilled hosts. We'd return any time.

The house was as advertised, just a path to a pretty private beach, on a dead end road so no traffic. The house sits right on a bluff and with the screened in porch you look right down at the crashing waves. We are definetly coming back next year!

This property lives up to the pictures and description, and then some. It has the charm of an old New England lake house, but updated with all the modern conveniences and near 360° views. There are beautiful scenic hikes nearby, and the beach might as well be your private beach. Host was very helpful and accommodating, definitely a revisit for this house! Thanks, Chris!
