My main concern after booking this property was that the actual place would not match what was advertised. I was very happy to find that it is exactly as shown, even better in a few aspects. For example, the rooftop is amazing. We enjoyed coffee in the morning, drinks in the evening, and amazing star gazing with a nice breeze to keep any bugs away. It was entertaining to see the changes from low tide to high tide. Beautiful Marconi beach is only 3 miles away and we took advantage of the season pass Jeff provides. The 3 bedrooms were clean and comfortable. One was a lot smaller than expected with only enough room for a bunk bed but that did not impact our experience. Lastly, Jeff was very responsive and thorough with the information he provided. Overall, I highly recommend this place.

Very secluded and convenient to the bay side of Wellfleet

My two daughters and I (they are 11 and 13) had a wonderful time during our stay. Communication with the owner/manager was excellent, although once on site, we hardly needed to reach out at all. Everything was essentially as advertised, and the location was great. Perhaps my one criticism was that the 3rd bedroom (with the bunk beds) was REALLY small. That said, my girls still chose to sleep in there, rather than choose another option. But aside from that small detail, I really have no significant criticisms. So, what was good? Well, the location was fantastic. I didn't fully appreciate what it meant to be located "on the flats" - at low tide, the ocean was incredibly far away, and the bay in front of the house became a field of oyster beds. We had arrived at low tide, and I was initially concerned that we might not have the "beach front" experience that I had been hoping for. Well, I need not have been worried. At high tide, the bay was lovely. We were able to kayak far and wide, or just hang out on the beach and enjoy the calm waters. The presence of the oyster beds seemed to generate a huge amount of ocean wildlife, and the girls were entertained with sea shells of every variety, crabs, hermit crabs, horseshoe crabs, sea snails, etc. At low tide, the oyster beds would emerge from the receding water, and then local oystermen would appear, driving right out into the ocean. It was really fun to wake each day, and watch them at their work while relaxing with my coffee. The house itself was fantastic. A really fun place, with the spiral stairs, the roof deck, and the walls of glass. On our first night, the girls and I lounged on the roof deck, where the star gazing was fantastic. We not only were able to spot satellites passing overhead, but we saw a number of shooting stars as well. Provincetown was just a 25 minute drive away, which made it easy to visit multiple times. And locally, there were great beach options (for when you wanted REAL waves), and countless excellent restaurants. I can easily see us visiting again.

Beautiful property excellent host, and overall wonderful week on the beach!

My husband and I along with our two children-14/12 and dog enjoyed our stay here. Jeff was easy to work with and shared many tips and local recommendations. This house is off the beaten path providing privacy and beautiful views. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here taking in the lovely scenery, walking the beach, exploring the surrounding area and relaxing as a family. The welcome bag was a nice touch—including several local products and gifts.

Fantastic getaway spot. Very private and low key area with some good restaurants and points of interest nearby. Highly recommend.

The view here is amazing. Fabulous sunsets and it is interesting to watch the fisherman tend their shellfish harvesting at low tide. As others have indicated in their reviews, there is a lot of delayed maintenance in this rental.

Beautiful spot, very quiet. The property was clean and comfortable.

The views were spectacular! Loved the roof deck which we frequented often and the private location. The sandy beach was great for walks and were fascinated watching the oystermen on the bay. The pros are the location, privacy, beach and unobstructed views! The house was neat and clean. Very nice gas grill and loved the teak deck chairs. Jeff was very responsive and provided detailed information and helpful resources and recommendations, which was greatly appreciated. The opportunities to improve would be to replace the mattress in the second bedroom which was sagging and uncomfortable. Additionally it would be helpful to provide a top loading 5 gallon water dispenser. The water has very high sodium and not palatable at all, which required us to purchase gallons of water and bags of ice to use during our stay. Overall, we had a wonderful time and truly enjoyed ourselves!

A beautiful location and home. Enjoyed thoroughly.

Found previous reviews and posted details largely accurate. Something I did not notice anywhere is that the road to the house floods in certain high tides - but this was never a problem for us - check the tide charts and the road is only unpassable for an hour or two at the most. The views from the house are great - over the bay to the front or marsh to the back. If you are not familiar with the bay side, you might be surprised at the oyster activity at low tide. Oyster farmers drive down onto the beach to work their farms daily. Interesting to watch, but maybe to some that would be a turn off. It can also be very windy, which was of course not a surprise, but it really did howl for a couple of days. The sheltered marsh-side deck was nice on those days. The beds and furniture are comfortable and functional. Some of the pieces (e.g. coffee table) are very basic, but a little out of place in a high end rental. The spiral stairs were fine for us, but you'll end up using them a lot to access the BR's. Wellfleet is great, from here you have great options - national seashore, kettle ponds, P-Town all very close by. Owner's instructions were completely clear and any questions were answered promptly.

Beautiful house in a great location. Owner had thought of and provided everything you could possibly need while staying at the house. Would highly recommend.

The views are amazing and the location is perfect for a peaceful retreat to the Cape!

This property is in a breathtaking location! The views are stunning and the rooftop is perfect for star gazing. Jeff is extremely thorough in providing information about the workings of the house, house rules and activities in the area. The house is definitely a work in progress and has some quirks. The two master bedrooms are spacious with great views, comfortable beds and renovated, en-suite bathrooms. The third bedroom is the size of a closet with no access to a second floor bathroom other than going through one of the other two bedrooms. For the price of the rental I expected more luxurious furnishings. Photos make everything look good but the reality is older, uncomfortable couches, and a kitchen that was very disappointing. The refrigerator and range are in poor condition, and the “cupboards” seem like painted plywoo The two first floor deck areas could not be enjoyed because the chair cushions were so stained and dirty that no one wanted to sit on them. I appreciate that Jeff has obviously made improvements to the property, but the remaining work to be done is not reflected in the rental cost. 

This is really an incredible property. The views are spectacular and the location is secluded enough that all sounds of the outside world are not heard. The house could use a bit loving care but really it’s all about the location. The owner, Jeff, is easy to communicate with and very helpful and thorough as to house items and also gave us helpful hints as to local doings. We stayed 2 weeks - didn’t want to leave. Enjoy!

Beautiful secluded private beach and nice house.

Providing a very unique 270 degree view/vista, this property falls into the “WOW” category. Don’t pass it up if you have the opportunity. Sadly, there were a myriad of small, but troublesome, downsides all of which were avoidable with proper attention and property management ( overgrown shrubbery, old and worn furniture, blinds, rugs, appliances, etc). If you can—and should —overlook these failures and embrace the pristine views, you’ll experience a wonderful time.

We booked Jeff's home in Wellfleet as our first family getaway after nearly a year of no vacations. The house's location was a dream, situated on its own sandy point in a sheltered salt marsh bay. We loved watching the tide come in and out, hiding and then revealing the oyster beds where the famous Wellfleet oysters grow. The house's layout was great for our family - my parents had their own room, my husband had a workspace in our room, and the kids had bunk beds. The living area was comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked and the streaming TV was much appreciated when the weather took a dramatic turn. Our host Jeff was incredibly helpful in offering tips to make our stay more comfortable (watch out for that high tide near the full moon!) and also providing recommendations for places to visit and dine in and around Wellfleet. We loved Van Rensselaer's restaurant just up the road and the Audobon Sanctuary was a nice place to visit. Unfortunately the weather was not what we hoped it would be for our getaway and we were confronted with several days of severe rain and wind storms. The house itself was warm and comfortable but it's location on the point meant there was little shelter from the wind, making for a few very noisy nights. I would love the chance to revisit Jeff's home when we could enjoy some sunshine and finally take advantage of the fabulous roof deck and see what I imagine are some brilliant night skies.

Jeff's house is simply stunning. The views in every direction were incredible. Loved every minute!

We loved the vista and the area. We have been to Wellfleet before so we knew where to go, etc., and we thoroughly enjoyed being on the beach before the crowds arrived. We found the "rules' of the house to be cumbersome and not helpful - for instance, we took our dog but no dogs are allowed on the second floor where the bedrooms are. That is the owner's prerogative, but dogs like to be close to their owners. We decided to stay with the dog on the first floor at night, but the pullout sofa is atrocious to sleep on. If you are not going to allow dogs to be in the bedrooms upstairs, then please make it comfortable for humans to sleep on the first floor. The owner was overly concerned about the restrictions, and he was not welcoming. Also, there was scratching for five days in the kitchen area - maybe birds, maybe mice? He got a wildlife specialist to investigate the day before we left, but the problem was never solved. The scratching was annoying and unsettling, and we decided we could not cook in the kitchen. The owner offered no partial refund, not even an apology. Very disappointing. The property was expensive, and we never felt he cared about our welfare. A wonderful setting, but an owner who simply cares, in our view, with making money and not making the experience enjoyable. We will not return.

The photos of the vistas here are accurate! It was fantastic being able to watch and hear the water every day, even in off-season iffy weather. Terrific stargazing. Some of the interior could use a bit of updating. The beds were extremely comfortable and well-appointed, and the heating system worked very well during our chilly spring visit.

If you are searching for a secluded home surrounded by coastal atmosphere, this is the place. When the tide is up you are totally shut off from the world except for sailboats and ocean sunfish nibbling at the seaweed. When the tide is down there is a flurry of activity from oystermen, shore birds, crabs, and other shore life. At night on the roof the stars, shooting stars and planets are in abundance. The owner Jeff was extremely easy to work with and quick to respond to any of our many questions. One note: bring plenty of bottled drinking water for yourself and your pet as the tap water is a bit salty. This house provided exactly what I had been searching for.

We were looking for a place that would sustain us away from the house during these strange times. This house was terrific for us, a family of 5 with 3 teens. We were there two weeks. On many days, we never left as the water is right there. Easy access to surfing and other beaches should you choose. My husband and I who continued to work for most of it had ample space away from activities. The third bedroom is a bit tight for teens, but nothing major and the sofa had a pull out bed on first floor. I can't say enough its accessibility and beauty are beyond compare. You can't go wront.

Our family of four had a great time. We loved exploring the bay by kayak at high tide and by foot at low tide. The house had everything we needed and we were very comfortable. Great communication with the owner. Look forward to returning!

The location of this home is very special. You will find yourself on the end of a sandy peninsula with no one else around, aside from the folks out on the flats harvesting their oysters. We enjoyed the relaxing environment, using high tide for water sports (kayaks, paddle boards, swimming) and low tide for exploring. The water is very calm which means swimming was "easy" for younger kids. When we needed bigger waves, the Cape Cod National Seashore is literally a 5 minute drive away. The house is well equipped and Jeff is responsive to any outreach. Several restaurants and bakeries are a short drive away, as is the best ice cream shop in the area. We highly recommend this vacation spot and look forward to a return visit.

We spent 3 weeks at the house and it’s location could not have been better, epic sunsets every night and great spot to take our two pups for walks. Place had everything we needed to work remotely and Jeff was incredibly responsive to any questions we had.

We had a great weekend here, we could see the oyster farms at low tide and the sunsets were beautiful. The area was unique, a nice place to getaway but not far from stores or restaurants.
