The Alter’s home was spacious, with enough bedrooms to accommodate our family of 8 (5 adults and 3 children). The setting was beautiful with decks on each level to view the gardens, koi pond, and simply to relax. The children loved the outdoor shower and exploring the gardens. The home is near numerous ponds, beaches, restaurants, and the town of Wellfleet. The Alters were always available by phone or text to answer our questions and were exceptionally accommodating to our specific needs. They were wonderful hosts. I would gladly return to this property.

This was perfect for our extended family, plenty of public and private spaces for everyone. Extremely well equipped. We hope to return.

This is a lovely property inside and out. The grounds are especially lovely. The house is spacious and well-equipped. Lots of room to spread out and relax. I would definitely rent again.

The Alter’s are gracious, thoughtful hosts. They readily provided us with a guide to the area and welcomed us with a bottle of wine. Their gorgeous house is surrounded by trees and flowers. The deck is a lovely place to read. The open kitchen/living room is bright and comfortable with mid-century modern accents. The bedrooms are comfortable. The outdoor shower is delightful. We throughly enjoyed our time in this tranquil setting.

The house was perfect for our extended family--plenty of room and privacy for everyone. We also loved the easy access to nature trails and bike paths, and we made use of the owners' kayak on Gull Pond. All in all, a great week.

We had a great stay at this beautiful house in Wellfleet. It's the perfect place for a larger group. It's conveniently located to town, but in a very attractive and quiet spot. The owners were terrific in their communications. A+!

What a perfect setting for our family gathering! Lots of space and opportunities for mingling, sharing meals and conversation. The screened in porch was a fantastic addition to the space in the main house and everyone appreciated the privacy of the bedroom suites. Would rent again- Evelyn

Gwen and Steve's home was a great choice for our Wellfleet vacation (4 adults and 6 teens). The living room and dining porch provided "together" spaces, while the bedrooms, multiple decks and other nooks & crannies allowed for alone time. The weather during our stay was uncharacteristically hot & humid, and the house's high-quality air conditioning was an absolute lifesaver! Likewise, we certainly made extensive use of the ZEN outdoor shower, our very favorite thing about a stay in Wellfleet. The outdoor shower at this property is a vacation unto itself! The quiet, woodsy location gives guests easy (driving) access to all of Wellfleet: ocean beaches, bay beaches, ponds, town and harbor. Every convenience is provided in this home. Our group enjoys cooking; my litmus test for a house rental is whether the kitchen is equipped with a salad spinner. When I saw one in the cupboard, I knew that we had made a great choice. Lastly, the Alters were exceptional hosts. Of course they were not present during our stay, but they were available by phone/text when and if needed. The only shortcoming of this rental property is that it does not have a water view, nor is it within walking distance of a beach. But it truly wins in all other areas.

The house was lovely inside and out. It was roomy and comfortable and situated in a quiet area - a perfect place to relax. We enjoyed our stay and would be happy to return.

This was our second time staying at the house and what a pleasure! Our family had a new experience of Wellfleet with this house. A huge kitchen with everything you could need to cook, a large screened in dining room, and a deck with propane grill.So much space for us to spread out and be comfortable. We went to the pond or bay every day and made use of the outdoor shower and the laundry room (a huge plus since we are a big group). Each bedroom has a private porch and is separated from the others for privacy and has AC. Secluded enough so that you can't see or hear the neighbors but close enough to get to everything in town, the pier, etc. Really the house is a dream. Thank you to Steven and Gwen for opening up your home to us!

We were there with a few couples and everyone had accommodations and space to be part of the group and also separate when privacy was desired. Kitchen is well equipped for high end preparations of meals. Views are fantastic and again private from every room. Plenty of room for relaxing exercising. Also a great location- near bike routes and easy to get to water sources (ponds, ocean and bay) and shopping. An overall wonderful experience.

This is a beautiful house in perfect condition. There is a wonderful view from every room. This is the right house for an extended family with both lots of privacy and lots of space to be all together. If you like to cook and have big family dinners this is the place for you.

We thoroughly enjoyed our week in this lovely home. It boasts a delightful, airy great room, terrific for conversations and hanging out. The dining room is a glassed in porch with plenty of screens and is a particularly nice spot to sit in during evenings. The home's central location made trips to town, beaches, ponds and golf convenient and quick. Add in a well appointed kitchen and comfortable beds and you can see why this modern gem worked beautifully for our family reunion.
