Wonderfully well kept and decorated cottage in a small private community with short walking distances to most places. Off street designated parking was a major plus! Easy check in and out made our stay all the more enjoyable. We can’t wait to go back!

I can’t begin to say how appreciative we are for our stay. My wife and I recently had a fire in our home and we were temporarily displaced with our dogs. The owner was understanding and respectful which made a stressful time in our lives less difficult. My wife and I (and canine children) are extremely thankful.

All the positive reviews and descriptions are accurate. The cottage is in great condition, well appointed and very convenient with a full kitchen and washer/dryer. The cottage was very clean. The property is very conveniently located a few feet from a grocery story and a short walk to restaurants and Commercial and Bradford Streets.
The owner communicated with me well with check-in directions which were clear and offered suggestions for an easier stay. During my two week stay, there was an imminent threat of severe weather in the form of a hurricane. The owner communicated everything that may need to be done and kept me up-to-date.
The one piece of advice I would leave regarding this cottage is that if you have any physical limitation that would prevent you from climbing to use the loft bed, this may not be the place for you.
I would gladly rent this cottage again in the future.

Well stocked, clean and cozy little cottage. Short walk to everything nearby (bike rentals, grocery store, gym, etc.) It was nice and quiet but still just a few blocks away from everything on Commercial St.

My husband and I could not have enjoyed our stay in this wonderful, private cottage that was perfectly located for all of our needs and wants. We stayed for 2 weeks and didn't have to move our car once. It had all the amenities we needed and then some. Communication with the owner was great and really made us feel welcome. We would highly recommend staying here to enjoy your Provincetown visit to the fullest!

Ideal location in the West End of Provincetown!
We rented this property for the first 2 weeks of July 2022 and could not have been more pleased. It was exactly as advertised, nice cozy small cottage, with all the amenities needed for a carefree stay for 2. The location is the best part! Most people assume Shank Painter is off the beaten path, but it is ideal location to all the West End has to offer. It is a 2 block walk to the Boatalip for tea and yet far enough away from Commercial to be quite and private. The cottage is situated behind a beautiful garden well back from the street so it is wonderfully quiet and peaceful. The grocery store is steps away, so convenient for quick trips. The gym and home rental are also 2 blocks away. We will definitely be returning to this wonderful property!

Cute and convenient
Stayed 3 nights to attend a wedding. Everything was great. Super close to the Stop and Shop and other essential stores and just a few blocks to Commercial Street. The cottage is set back from the road which helps since Shank Painter is a busier road. Way better than a hotel and the convenience of a kitchen/ grill and washer/dryer. Will be back soon!

Lots of love for this little cottage
The cottage is a wonderful place to stay! The location is great…walking to distance to town, the dog park, bike rentals and groceries. The layout works so well, and the extra outdoor space is a treat for coffee and drinks. It was fully stocked and we had everything we needed for a week’s vacation.

Great place and location
This place is wonderful! It is very convenient to the shops and restaurants in Provincetown and close to Stop and Shop yet it is set back from the road and quiet. There are lovely gardens in front of the cottages.

Loved our stay here! Hope to book again next year!
We loved our stay here The place was adorable but well laid out so there was room for my husband and me and our two dogs. Great location... Right next to Stop n shop, down the street from the dog park, and a very short walk to commercial Street. It was great having a washer dryer and a dishwasher (though I really didn't miss my garbage disposal) The only negative thing I have to say is the back area was a little neglected and the grill was clean...not what I expected, but it was fine. Thanks for a great stay!

Wonderful stay, will be back!
My wife and I both thought this cottage was perfect for our week-long visit to Provincetown. Everything was spotless when we arrived. Convenient parking, friendly neighbors, short walk to town and a short bike ride to Herring Cove Beach, where we went almost every day. Short walk from a grocery and several fantastic restaurants. Excellent water pressure in the shower. Lots of thoughtful touches throughout made it easy for us to keep clean and be prepared for any occasion. The host, David, was very responsive and went the extra mile to accommodate a special request. We can't wait to return!

Convenient and quiet
This cottage is a short walk to just about everything--restaurants, coffee shops, grocery store, liquor store, and everything on Commercial Street. It is also in a quiet and peaceful location. It's really the best of both worlds! And if you like wildlife, there's plenty of it behind the cottage. We saw rabbits, squirrels, and lots of birds, and we heard foxes and owls at night. We had a wonderful stay!

Great place, perfect location
What a great place. This was our first time to Provincetown and staying in a tiny house. David was such a great host and helpful. Thank you for opening your home to us. We spent most of our time exploring the area and we have already started talking about wanting to come back next summer. The house is an easy walk or bike ride to commercial street and all the shops. We brought our bikes and enjoyed biking out through the dunes to the national park. Those hills are a workout! 😀
Looking forward to our next trip to PTown. 🦄

David's place is wonderful. Cozy (but not too small), and convenient to just about everything (and yet situated in a peaceful spot off of Shankpainter Road). David was very easy to communicate with and the property has everything you need to make your stay comfortable. Highly recommended.

Clean and quaint
The cottage was very clean and modern but a bit smaller than expected. Location is great if you’re looking to have a quiet retreat. Not as private as I would have liked but overall a nice stay.

Perfectly charming!
We enjoyed a lovely stay in June, 2018. The cottage is within walking distance of everything - very nice walk to Commercial St.. We had a car (which we only used once), the private parking could not have been easier. The cottage was clean, well furnished, and very comfortable. David is a wonderful owner and we would not hesitate to stay in his cottage again. (We had a family emergency - he could not have been more understanding or helpful.) Thank you, David! Christine & Family.

perfect location, adorable cottage
We loved our stay here, the location was pefect. We were a 5 minute walk to all the action on Commercial street, but when you're at the cottage you feel serenity and calm. It was our first trip to Cape Cod and we definitely feel we made the right choice with this cottage. Clean, quiet and well stocked. Thanks for a fantastic week! Deb & Ben Caruso

Ptown Vacation
Stayed for a week in June 2017 and had a wonderful experience. Fantastic location, close to town, super market, cumberland farms. Cottage was clean, comfortable and had everything you could ever need. Sleeping loft was a little tight (i'm 6'4"), but it worked. All in all, a great cottage!

Cozy, convenient, clean
I spent 4 nights here in May, as a getaway (partly) and also as a place to write a paper for grad school. I found the cottage comfortable, quiet, and - its best feature - convenient to everything. i woke early and, with a five-minute walk, was down at the water's edge to watch the glorious sunrise. I hopped onto my bike and, in 20 minutes, was at Herring Cove Beach. For some variety, I walked or biked easily into downtown Provincetown for good food and shopping. The cottage was a nice place to return to at the end of the day.

HOME AWAY FROM HOME
This was our first time to provincetown. We couldnt have picked a better rental even if we had been there before. This is a detached unit, hard to find by the way. Yet close enough to everything, you wont need your vehicle. The cottage was as described and then some. David thinks of everything, those little extras that make a difference. We will absolutely return to this cottage. David is the best owner you could ask for, He answered questions promptly. Everything in the cottage worked, there were no problems at all. So all that being said we will make this our return vacation rental. It is in a quiet part of town just a few steps to the grocery store and Macs seafood. The bike rentals are across the road from the Stop and Shop grocery store. Provincetown pizza is a few steps in the other direction, towards commercial st. Dont forget to visit the Province Lands National Seashore, There is a paved bike trail that is awesome. Visitor center with gift shop, restrooms, and overlook. Three lighthouses and pilgrim monument you can see from the whale watch tour, that was awesome!! Fantastic vacation. To many things to mention to do.
David Goodman,
Experience life as it should be.
