Contemporary Home on 4+ Secluded Acres with Gorgeous Views of Pamet and Bay

We really enjoyed our stay here. It's very peaceful amidst a beautiful, natural setting with a view of the bay in the distance. The house is quaint and has a nice variety of interesting furnishings and artwork. The kitchen was relatively modern with plenty of good equipment, dishware, etc. There are lots of nice windows for fresh air and breezes. Bedrooms allow for a decent amount of privacy and convenience, with the exception of the loft which although slightly less private, is nonetheless a nice room with plenty of space. The location is excellent with relatively easy access to beaches and towns. Sylvia was very kind, communicative and available to us if necessary. We would stay here again.

Quiet, peaceful home and surroundings.

We have spent a week at this house for several consecutive summers and find it a consistently pleasant destination. The setting is peaceful and affords views of the Pamet River and the Atlantic coastline. One can access a nearby bayside beach just minutes from the house, and trips to Truro Center and Wellfleet are accessible by bike, should one wish to add in some exercise. The rolling hills make for excellent biking.

The house has an open feel as the kitchen and living room are wide open. There are two private bedrooms and one in a loft that overlooks the living room.

Sylvia has always been pleasant and accommodating; over the years, there has been the occasional snafu, of course, but she maintains a solid support crew in the area, so things are rectified quickly.

The interior decor has the authentic feel of a longtime Truro retreat, but is appointed with an updated kitchen that is a pleasure to use.

I recommend this property, especially to those who desire a pastoral, quiet setting. The house and setting are charming and the house is well maintained.

This house is on a very nice piece of property, as the pictures indicate. It is also large enough to comfortably sleep 6. However, there are many deficiencies for a rental at this price point. The only queen bed is in a loft that is wide open to the living room and also contains a twin, so there is no privacy. The nicest room only has a double bed in it, which is not comfortable for two adults. The loft is not safe for children or older adults as the stairs are very narrow and steep and there is nothing to prevent a small child from falling down from an opening at the top of the stairs. One bathroom is very old with a stall shower with a non-working light. The second bathroom is half renovated. The refrigerator did not have an ice-maker. The coffee maker is very old. The dry feature on the dishwasher did not work. Almost every dish is chipped or cracked. Some of the furniture in the living room is literally falling apart, including the coffee table and one sofa. The interior of the house needs to be repainted. The piano is out of tune. Although the area off the back has the lovely view, it was very difficult to use, as the in-ground sprinklers doused them every morning, so the cushions were soaking almost the whole week that we were there. The linens are quite old and most of the towels are stained. Also, be careful to read the fine print. The owner expects the renters to clean the house themselves (return to condition found in), including washing and drying all the linens and folding them. Check out is at 10 am, so this is extremely challenging. At this price point, it is usual to have a professional cleaning service clean the bathrooms and kitchen and much more hygienic than relying on the prior guests to do so. We asked the owner if we could pay for cleaners and she said she could not arrange it. Since we needed to leave early on the last day, she did arrange for a laundry service to do the wash and we paid by the pound for it. But again, we have rented many times and have never been in a similar situation of having to make special arrangements for laundry.

This is an ideal location within a short drive or bike ride from New England's most beautiful beaches. The house is extraordinarily well equipped, and the owner thoughtful and attentive. My stay exemplified what we all hope a vacation should look like. I cannot recommend the house, the owner and the location highly enough.
