About this cottage rental

The Beach Cottage at Lis Sur Mer sits atop a dune with a private deck looking out over a private beach. PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING: Rentals in season (April-October) are only offered by the week (Saturday-Saturday). November rentals are offered with a 4-night minimum. Rentals December-March are offered with a 3-night minimum. Pets are accepted but you MUST let us know in your booking request that you will be bringing your pet so that we can prepare the property.

The BEACH COTTAGE is located directly at the top of a dune and has a set of private stairs to the bay beach where you can experience almost total privacy. The BEACH COTTAGE has a small entry way with a sitting area for dining at an antique table that can seat 6. There is an open plan kitchen area with refrigerator, electric stove, microwave, coffee maker and all your kitchen needs. Living room area opens to the kitchen with an old comfortable couch and an equally comfortable chair that face a wall of windows on the bay. There is wi-fi, a 36" TV and DVD player as well as a Vermont Casting old fashion gas stove with glass windows for off season warmth and ambience.

For sleeping, there is a very private room that holds a custom made kingsize bed facing windows on the garden and the bay. This room has a fireplace, a dresser and a closet to hang clothes. A smaller room located at the opposite end of the cottage has an antique double pineapple bed with a bay view. There is a small bathroom with a clawfoot tub and shower. The front of the beach cottage has a private deck on the bay with reclining deck chairs.

Behind the cottage there is a very private back garden surrounded by trees and dunes with seating arrangements, a charcoal grill and a picnic table for outside dining. Additional features are a completely private outside shower that faces the bay and a stereo system that plays both in the living room and on the rear patio.

The house covered in ivy and rose vines is surrounded by olive trees, pine trees, and two century old english oaks. Lighting on the property is by antique brass lanterns.

You'll have access to Lis Sur Mer's private beach just seconds from The Shack, shared only with guests of the other two cottages.

Truro is a great small town surrounded by the Cape Cod National Seashore, freshwater ponds, hiking trails, and great restaurants. It's just a 15-minute drive to downtown Provincetown.

Wonderful Winter Getaway

Wonderful Winter Getaway

My husband & I were looking for a pandemic-safe getaway for a few nights & found the perfect spot at the Beach Cottage at Lis Sur Mer in Truro. The weather was windy & cold, but the cottage was inviting & cozy. We checked in at 4pm after a delicious lunch at Fanizzi's in Provincetown. The cottage was so appealing at dusk with its flaming outdoor lanterns. We unpacked (plenty of closet & dresser space in the master bedroom), then headed down the staircase outside for a walk on the very private beach. We then grabbed a bottle of wine & our Bose speaker & sat in the Adirondack chairs atop the bluff, listening to the sound of the waves lapping on the shore. So idyllic, 'til we realized that we had locked ourselves out. We placed a couple of calls, & the response was immediate (thank you, Jane & Peter)! The gas-powered stove in the kitchen, along with the heating units in the hallway & master bedroom kept us very comfortable, so much so, that I dared to take an Inauguaration Day ocean plunge followed by a wonderfully-warm shower. The cottage is perfect, whether you want to use it as a home-base as you head out on your adventures, or if you want to just stay in & stay cozy. I enjoyed time reading & rug-hooking. The view is incredible ... I can only imagine how special it would be to stay here in the summertime with all the windows wide open! We enjoyed some great meals in P'town: dinner in an igloo at Liz's Cafe just as the snowflakes began falling, dinner in front of the massive fireplace at Ciro & Sal's, & a wonderful extended lunch at the Squealing Pig on the day we checked out. We highly recommend this property & are so grateful to Peter for rearranging his maintenance schedule to accommodate our 3-night stay.

Chris and I took the dogs for a winter escape and we were all charmed into dreamy contentment. The sea and the sky are featured inside and out- it’s amazing to be right there on the bluff for sunrise and sunset. We are grateful for the essence of old Cape Cod found here, and the special time we shared in this rustic, private setting Thank you!

Spectacular in any season

Spectacular in any season

The Beach cottage was full of charm and surrounded by beauty. Albeit a (very) cold February weekend, the views from the cottage made us feel like we were at the beach! We had everything we needed and more for a relaxing escape on the Cape. It's an amazing oasis and only 10 minutes from vibrant Provincetown! Can't wait to visit again.

The Cottage Dream

The Cottage Dream

LOVED IT!!! If you want to be absolutely transported into a kind of surreal natural getaway from a past-gone era, to restore your faith in the world in reconnect to nature and solitude - this your place. It oozes with charm and beauty. ( but you can still watch Netflixx or dine at a foodie restaurant if you want) Ticks my every box: 1)the view - all you see is Ocean, right on a a selcuded private beach 2) the location - 8 min to Ptown but off the grid, free of any chaos and congestion, 3) the affordability, comfort and ease of access. - check-in was a breeze, rules and info all clear, has everything you need for a relaxing time and the most reasonable deal in the area for what you get. can not rec'd more highly. So grateful to have had a stay in this fantatstic rental. !!!

Idyllic Getaway

Idyllic Getaway

We were delighted with our stay at the beach cottage of Lis Sur Mer. The building is more than spacious for two guests, clean, well-equipped, and convenient for the exploration of natural and cultural features of the area. It has exceptional “atmosphere” — peace and beauty in all directions, both inside and out. Morning coffee in the sheltered patio, birdwatching from the front deck, watching the bay and the gas fireplace from the sofa at dusk: this placed is designed to comfort and please. Paintings and well-chosen reclaimed materials enrich the surroundings. Reservations went smoothly, and staff were pleasant and helpful while respecting our privacy. This was just what we hoped for.

It couldn't possibly have been improved upon! We hope to go back again and again.

I'd call it faux rustic...simple in a Shaker kind of way but not uncomfortable. The view is fantastic and the weather was changeable so we saw the Bay in many moods. Please never change a thing!

The Cottage at Lis Sur Mer on top of the sand dune overlooking Cape Cod Bay is a suberb location.

The Cottage at Lis Sur Mer on top of the sand dune overlooking Cape Cod Bay is a suberb location.

In prior years we have been beach side on either the Atlantic or the Nantucket Sound as I love to sleep hearing the surf so we went to the Bay beach side in 2018. To my pleasure the surf could be heard all day and the water was white capping on a number off days during our week of June stay. We loved the quaint Cottage and we usually do not repeat a location, but we plan to return to the Lis Sur Mer Cottage in 2019.

Great getaway, even in the teeth of a storm

Great getaway, even in the teeth of a storm

So.. We arrived at the Beach Cottage the day before a Nor'easter storm came barreling in. We were more than a bit nervous about being on a bluff above the ocean with hurricane-force winds, but the staff at Lis sur Mer set us at ease immediately. The caretaker checked in at the right moments and we had ready access to the housekeeper if needed. The gas fireplace was a lifesaver when the power went out - though do note that the water is well drawn (no water in power outages) and the cook stove is electric, which is an annoyance even when you do have power. Besides that, the cottage was very well appointed and super cozy even in pretty horrific weather. It really is a great getaway.

Wonderful cottage by the sea

Wonderful cottage by the sea

The Beach Cottage was beautifully situated so we could see and hear the bay from most every room. It was wonderful to see the water upon waking in the morning and to hear the waves crashing at night.There is an amazing sense of light and tranquility about the house. It is charming and although small, has everything you need to be comfortable. We were relaxed and slept wonderfully. Certainly one of a kind. We can't wait to return!
