We chose this rental for its convenient location. Then we discovered it was a beautiful home away from home, with caring hosts and delightful grounds. We plan to come back.

What more can one want, super close to The National Seashore, beautiful grounds, relaxed atmosphere.

The cottage is well equipped and nice inside. The outdoor spaces really make it special -- wonderful outdoor shower, several outside hang-out areas! And of course close to the National Seashore!

Was a lovely experience

Saltbox is a wonderful spot. We were there late in the Cape Cod (late Sept) and found it a perfect escape for solitude, quiet, and nature. It is wonderfully surrounded by trees. Morning runs to the lighthouse and happy hours at beaches a mile or two away. The home was great for two. Living room and loft. The knotty pine and rustic charm inside, wild turkeys and Adirondack chairs outside. Out back is probably the nicest outdoor shower I’ve been. Hope to back to soon.

This property was incredible! It was a tucked away paradise but close to the Coast Guard Beach, rail trail, and all cape amenities. The cottage was great - perfect for 2 people. Kitchen was well stocked with utensils and cooking equipment. We cooked almost every meal for a week! The outdoor space was so peaceful and the perfect spot to be away from others! Six and Rick were great hosts, very welcoming and safe. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks!

Great cottage for a couple, terrific location, well-stocked kitchen, super outdoor shower, and even two bikes.

This is marvelous property that scores high across the board. Situated at the end of a long, winding driveway, the cottage affords a feeling of immersion in Cape flora- very private and and quiet.Coast Guard beach (National Seashore) is an enjoyable one mile bike ride away. Otherwise one can either drive or even walk to the shuttle bus link to the beach.Eastham is an excellent location (sort of right above the "elbow" of the Cape) enabling easy drives to Wellfleet, Orleans and Provincetown. Bayside beaches are a 10 minute drive away.

Our stay was wonderful! The only unexpected thing was the proximity to the main house, yet privacy was well appreciated!

My husband and I had a wonderful time staying on this very special Cape Cod property. This is a classic cottage/cabin; knotty pine, vintage furnishings, and blue willow plates. It is a great place to slow down and take a trip back in time. The cottage also comes with a hammock, a charcoal grill, a picnic table, Adirondack chairs, and a wonderful outside shower. The gazebo on the property is an architectural gem is a re-purposed belfry from an old Methodist church that was demolished back in the 60’s. In there you will find a picnic table where you can play a game, have a beverage and safely enjoy a passing thunderstorm. The main house, built in 1680, is one of oldest homes on Cape Cod. This central location has a setting that is park-like, peaceful and off the beaten path. Suze and Rick were welcoming and super helpful in suggesting places to eat out and take in local music. The home is in the National Seashore. We loved the easy access to the 22 mile long Cape Cod Rail Trail as well as the two mile bike trail to the Coast Guard Beach. The Cape Cod Rail Trail is all paved, and relatively flat, so it’s easy going. We biked the six miles south to Nickerson State Park where we found Cliff Pond, excellent for swimming, (just watch out for the poison ivy along the path). We also biked up to Wellfleet. At the PB Boulangerie Bistro on the bike path we found the most amazing selection of breads and pastries ever. From there we biked less than a mile to Lecount Beach and from there walked the mile up the beach to White Crest Beach and watched the seals along the way. We look forward to coming back!

Cabin has all necessities for a Cape Cod vacation. The king size bed was very comfortable, but with the only bathroom being up a steep narrow staircase, this is not a property for someone with mobility issues. The downstairs beds would work for young children, but they would need to go upstairs for the bathroom. The outdoor shower is absolutely lovely, with flowers and woods out the head-height window! The caretakers are accessible and helpful should you need anything. Plenty of towels and beach chairs and a reasonably stocked kitchen mean you don’t need to pack much. The air conditioning is only one window unit downstairs for both floors, so if you NEED to be cool, this might be a problem. We loved sitting outside on the Adirondack chairs listening to the birds while sipping coffee or wine. We went to Coastguard Beach nearly every day, which was very convenient by tram or bike (you will need to pay National Park fees for the beaches—$60 covers your vehicle for the week or you can pay $20/day. If you bike to the beach, I think you can avoid these fees altogether.) Overall, this was a great location from which to explore the Cape. We spent evenings in Wellfleet, Provincetown, Dennis, and Chatham—all reasonable drives after a day on the beach in Eastham. If you like rustic charm, have no mobility issues, are not exceptionally tall (ceiling heights are low—under 7ft upstairs), and are looking for a peaceful Cape Cod vacation, this is a great little cottage for you!

The Seavy's cottage, right next to the National Seashore Visitor Info. Center, was a great place to stay. The location was perfect for exploring the outer Cape, with restaurants and shops nearby. The cottage was cozy with a comfy bed on the 2d floor, a very well-equipped kitchen, outdoor picnic table, grill, Adirondack chairs and a hammock. The cottage was well off busy Rte. 6 and was quiet. Lovely grounds and a little pond with turtles to check out.

My wife and I were guests of Sue and Paul in August of 2011. Not only was the cottage and its location reminiscent of the unchanging qualities of the Cape we remembered from our living there in the past, but also Paul and Sue were great hosts. The cottage is well located, convenient to Orleans, Cape Cod Bay, the ocean beaches, Wellfleet and Provincetown. The Cape is a great summer playground. Their cottage makes it perfect. Bob and Anne

We just returned from a week's vacation. We wish we could have stayed longer! We loved this romantic cottage and its quiet location. The owners are very sweet and helpful. Our child had such a great time exploring the grounds with wild turkeys, snapping turtles... we even spotted a deer. A true gem!

This cottage is situated within the National Seashore area and is located centrally to everything on Cape Cod. The best kept secret about this rental is the owners who stay in the main house on the grounds. I felt they made our entire vacation complete. They have everything there you forget at home, and are a wealth of knowledge when it comes to the Cape. We spent time with them everyday and even had a cookout together! They made us genuinely feel at home and at ease. Great vacation spot for couples with two children and they even have an cottage style apartment connected to the main house if grandparents or other family members want to join in! It is rented sepearately so be sure to ask! The bike trail to Coast Gaurd Beach and Nauset Light Beach is just pedals away and a perfect distance for small children to ride as well. (about 1.5 miles one way to Coast Gaurd Beach) Great for running as well-you can go 3 miles to about 6.2 if you continue to Nauset Light Beach. The bay side beaches are a short drive away and the kettle ponds are all over. Great Pond has the best swimming experience in Eastham if you prefer warmer/calmer water and is very close as well. This was our first time to the Cape and we will definitely be going back next year to stay with Sue and Paul!
