About this cottage rental

Castleway cottage is a charming historic 1100 square foot three season cottage, just steps away from the Pamet River which opens up into Cape Cod Bay, one mile south of Corn Hill Beach. Built in the 1890's as an artist's colony, Castleway is one of 8 Sladeville cottages (built by Mr. Slade), which are steps from a private riverfront on the Pamet River. Bring your kayaks, canoes and floats ! Pet friendly. Cottage is simple and charming, with a recently remodeled kitchen, first floor full bath with tub and shower, outdoor shower, three small bedrooms on the first floor and two on the second, along with a half bath. Sleeps 7-8 comfortably and up to 9 if some guests are small children. Newly sanded floors in kitchen & two first floor bedrooms. Living room has been painted and has a working fireplace ! Dining room table can seat 8-10. There is a small TV in the living room and a second one in the upstairs master bedroom. Internet is provided and signal is good, as is a land line for local calls (cell phone service can be spotty). Rustic and old fashioned but clean and very functional. Bedrooms are pretty small but have water views and windows for nice light and ventilation, and beds and linens are new or in good condition. Dressers and closets in all bedrooms (first floor queen bedroom has hooks for hangers but not closet).

Kitchen includes new counters, cabinets and fixtures, newly-sanded floor, and all customary kitchen equipment including microwave, washer & dryer, pots and pans, dishes and plenty of utensils. BRING YOUR OWN BED LINENS AND TOWELS, WE PROVIDE ALL PILLOWS, BLANKETS AND QUILTS. (Linens and towels can be provided for an additional fee if notified in advance). Outdoor shower is heavenly !!

Property also includes outdoor adirondack chairs, a gas grill, a polywood dining table plus 6 polywood chairs and two outdoor umbrellas. Free standing hammock for those lazy naps. 8 beach chairs, foam noodles and floats available for your use. Parking spaces for two cars, and additional guest spot may be available if needed but not guaranteed. Swing set for children and large grassy area in front of the cottages for outdoor play. Leashed dogs permitted for an additional $150 fee per dog. Professionally cleaned before and after each guest. Saturday-Saturday arrival and departure during peak summer weeks. Built-in electric heaters installed in master bedroom, living room and first floor hallway outside full bathroom which can also serve to heat the queen bedroom. All other rooms have portable electric heaters for warmth in the shoulder seasons. Plenty of fans in each room for hot summer days.

Note - Although it may not appear so on the google map, the Pamet River flows right out to Cape Cod Bay, so you can take a kayak or canoe from our cottage, and paddle out to the bay beaches within a few short minutes, as well as stop along the way in Truro harbor, where you can moor or anchor larger boats !

Fantastic family destination. Also great for one couple or family, or as many as three couples, and extended families. Many repeat guests over many decades.

For a change of pace, please check out our one bedroom waterfront cottage in North Truro (#3506195), our 3 bedroom walk-to-water all season cape (#976979) and our charming 4 bedroom house in Woodstock, Vermont (#3809315), which is great in both winter (for skiing as it's near Killington, Pico & Okemo mountains) and summer/fall !

We stayed as a family. The kyacking was amazing . The host was very responsive and the community is quite friendly. Plenty of fans. Unfortunately there was a fair amount of rain and the cottage is a bit small for a group hang out. If you are a close knit group, or smaller group, I would highly recommend. I loved it, but not everyone in my family felt the same.

We had such a wonderful time in this gorgeous spot. The salt marsh / river is so incredibly beautiful. The house is well appointed and had a perfect set up for our 2 and 3 year old with the trundle bed. Easy to access corn hill, we swam, kayaked and explored the marsh. Neighbors were nice too. Thanks Liz!

This was the seventh house we've stayed in on the Cape and it was all of our favorite. The location, view, and grounds are fabulous. The house is comfortable and cozy with wonderful water views, cross ventilation, a great outdoor shower and everything we needed to cook at home. The rooms/beds were comfortable and the house was very clean and didn't have the common musty smell. The owner was very quick to return emails. We enjoyed every aspect of it and would love to stay there again!

This is our second stay at Castleway. All year I anticipated the salty breeze and calming sight of the Pamet and it was as magnificent as I’d remembered. I love the quietude and old Cape essence of this place. I appreciate the thoughtful touches like the well outfitted kitchen and hammock. Already planning our next visit.

Vintage Cape Cod cottage on stunning tidal estuary

We enjoyed a glorious old-school outer Cape week at Castleway. Never tempted to turn on the TV, we paddled the Pamet, read books in the hammock strung beneath the lacy shade of locus trees, washed off salt and sand in the outdoor shower and made local seafood dinners in the well equipped kitchen. The full laundry was a handy and welcome upgrade for a vintage Cape cottage. The neighbors in the adjacent properties were congenial, family oriented and respectful. Bay and ocean beaches are 3 and 6 minutes away. We sought out a vacation spot with direct access to paddling on the Pamet estuary and the Castleway was a dream come true. We left rejuvenated and eager to return next year. Host Liz was so helpful and attentive. Wish we were still there!

As advertised - had a wonderful stay
As advertised - had a wonderful stay
The property was as advertised. Rustic, small and cozy, in a great location. Small bedrooms that would not sleep nine unless you had a few kids (luckily we only had 5 adults). Kitchen was well equipped. The outdoor shower was fabulous. Location is great close to Welfleet and Provincetown and Truro as well. Working with the host went very well. The 10:00 am check out was a little too early for us. And having to rent bedding and towels was unfortunate for people traveling from across the country. But that was all spelled out in the listing - so wasn't a surprise. We would happily return again.

Comfortable Cape cabin conveniently located in heaven

I can't say enough good things about the Sladeville cabins, and Castleway in particular. The setting on the marsh is spectacular, and the cabins are quaint as all get-up. Castleway in particular features some nice updates -- TV, strong WiFi, an outdoor shower and gas grill, comfortable chairs and sofa, an even picnic table. Thanks Liz and company for sharing this spot with us!
