  • The house was beautiful and even better than expected.There were 10 of us,including 2 children, and we never felt crowded or lacked privacy.The view of the water from the large upstairs deck was great - very panoramic. The beach was very private.Walking out at low tide was such fun!We were there 6/28 -7/5 and couldn't have asked for better weather. The bay was surprisingly warm for that early in the season.The house is equipped with everything you could possibly need, including a huge assortment of books and games.We had a wonderful time and couldn't have asked for anything better!

  • The Main House was perfect for our big group with ages ranging from 2 to 68. Every one of us loved reading on the porch, listening to the birds and staring at the sea. We walked down to the beach many times each day, flying kites or looking for horseshoe crabs or even taking the little ones out in the kayaks. Wellfleet and surrounds can't be beat, but even if we hadn't left the house we would have had a great vacation. And I hate to say it, the wireless was a lifesaver. Thanks Howie!

  • Howie, Thank you for the use of your house. The main house is exactly as presented on the web and as you described. We had a wonderful time during our stay, despite several rainy days. We celebrated mom and dad's 50th wedding anniversary with the entire family for the entire week. The house was perfect for the 8 of us (7 adults, and a 3 YO) with room to spare. The neighbors were wonderful and helpful. The beach was always available, and we second the comment made by a previous commenter, the nearby lakes are also worth a day of your time. We went to Gull pond and rented sail boats and kayaks from Jacks, he was very resonable and helpful as well. In case you are wondering there are plenty of good books in the house and more table games than you could possibly play in a week available. No need to bring them with you. We fully recommend the main house to anyone considering it. Say hello to the neighbors for us. Tom, Dorothy, Bob, Susanne, MJ, Mom and Dad and Lil Edgar Li Robitaille.

  • Thank You Howie, for a terrific week on the Cape. Advice to all newcomers: -the ocean is not the only good place for a dip. Ponds like Duck Pond, Long Pond, and Dire Pond are always great for having fun with friends or the family. Duck Pond is awesome if you're looking for more of a rugged, pond experience. The area you're sitting may be damp, but you'll be thankful once the sun hits its apex. Chicken Fights and other watersports are not only adviced, but encouraged as there shouldn't be anyone in your way. Generally this is the positive over Long Pond, which is sure to be packed on good days. Still, Long Pond can also be a blast once you dive in, since you can paddle to a dock not too far out and play King of the Dock. Swimming across the pond is also an option and is sure to provide much time for family bonding. As opposed to the limited seating at Duck, at Long Pond a grassy/sandy area will leave a little bit of room to space out chairs, stretch out legs, and throw a football. -Ping Pong is a great time waster if adults are sitting around the house and kids have nothing to do. -Province Town on one or two nights is always a memorable experience. Check out "the freaks" while stocking up on candy and breathing in the salty air. -Lobster. -Take the cayaks out for an exploring adventure. -There's cable internet for your laptops! -The deck is an added pleasure for morning reading, mid-day tanning, and just eating lunch. At the end of the day it's just beautiful to stand out there by moonlight and watch waves play over the ocean. -Make sure to take advantage of the lower level fridge for extra storage space. -It's adviceable to keep somekind of protective shoe on while wading in the ocean. We've had some injuries in the past as I'm sure have you. Have Fun.

  • Cape Cod is a regular vacation spot for us, with Wellfleet as one of the best! Especially enjoyed a family tradition of hiking and shelling Great Island. This year we went with our granddaughters where we introduced their daddy to the place over 30 years ago. A wonderful time!

  • The deck overlooking Wellfleet Harbor offers an outstanding view. Sunrise, sunset, the changing colors of the sky and water are beautiful and encourage hours of reading and relaxation

  • A week in the sun. A week of fun. Drive-in movies, lobster dinners, and sunny beach days made it a week to remember. We filled the week with all of our Cape Cod favorites: Box Lunch, Long Pond, the flea market, Province Town, ping pong matches, and beach relaxation. The best part was that I shared the week with my favorite people.

    What a wonderful place to be. It was perfect for all of us-age range 6 years old to 67. The house is well cared for, the location truly the best, and we all look foward to returning again. Sue Cohen (rented "The Main House" belonging to Howie Feinstein

    Thanks Howie, it was grand. We really lucked out the weather was great - every day was nice. We hit the beach every day. I landed a few blues and stripers at dawn up in Truro and over at Newcomb Hollow and we got to hit the PTown Carnival Parade! The kids loved that ! :)) Biking, beaching and boogie boarding were all big with the kids. As was ice cream !!! We hit Uncle Franks on our bikes for a doughnut most mornings - nice little ride to the Harbor and back. We rented a boat for 1/2 day in Wellfleet Harbor. We hit the Square Dancing one night - that was fun. AND, we hit PJs 5-6 times. Great breakfast at the Lighthouse one day too. We walked out at low tide a few times at the Sea Shells Beach but never really stayed there or used that beach, but it was great having a beach so near by that the kids could at least go run around on. We went to the ponds many times. Long Pond with the float was a favorite. Tennis at Chequesett and Olivers. It was a great house and location and really made the summer for us. We just need two more weeks. :)) Thanks for your hospitality. Cheers, Mark
