About this property
4BR historic cottage on Pamet & Cape Cod Bay. Kayak heaven. WIFI. Washer dryer.
Castleway cottage is a charming and rustic historic 1100 square foot three season cottage, just steps away from the Pamet River which opens up into Cape Cod Bay, one mile south of Corn Hill Beach. Built in the 1890's as an artist's colony, Castleway is one of 8 Sladeville cottages (built by Mr. Slade), which are steps from a private riverfront on the Pamet River. Bring your kayaks, canoes and floats ! Pet friendly. Cottage is simple and charming, with a remodeled kitchen, first floor full bath with tub and shower, outdoor shower, two small bedrooms on the first floor and two on the second, along with a half bath. Sleeps 7-8 comfortably and up to 9 if some guests are small children. Living room has a working fireplace. Dining room table can seat 8-10. There is a small TV in the living room and a second one in the upstairs master bedroom. Internet is provided and signal is good, as is a land line for local calls (cell phone service can be spotty). Rustic and old fashioned but clean and functional. Bedrooms are small but recently painted with some water views and windows for nice light and ventilation, and beds and linens are new or in good condition. Dressers and closets in all bedrooms.
Kitchen includes quartz counters, pine cabinets, and all customary kitchen equipment including microwave, drip and keurig coffee makers, washer & dryer, pots and pans, dishes and plenty of utensils. BRING YOUR OWN BED LINENS AND TOWELS, WE PROVIDE ALL PILLOWS, BLANKETS AND QUILTS. (Linens and towels can be provided for an additional fee if notified in advance). Outdoor shower is heavenly !!
Property also includes outdoor adirondack chairs, a gas grill, a polywood dining table plus 6 polywood chairs and an outdoor umbrella. Free standing hammock for those lazy naps. 8 beach chairs, foam noodles and floats available for your use. Parking spaces for two cars, and three additional guest spots may be available if needed but not guaranteed (shared with other units on first come first serve basis ). Swing set for children and large grassy area in front of the cottages for outdoor play. Leashed dogs permitted for an additional $150 fee per dog. Professionally cleaned before and after each guest. Saturday-Saturday arrival and departure during peak summer weeks. Built-in electric heaters installed in master bedroom, living room and first floor hallway outside full bathroom which can also serve to heat the queen bedroom. All other rooms have portable electric heaters for warmth in the shoulder seasons. Plenty of fans in each room for hot summer days.
Note - Although it may not appear so on the google map, the Pamet River flows right out to Cape Cod Bay, so you can take a kayak or canoe from our cottage, and paddle out to the bay beaches within a few short minutes, as well as stop along the way in Truro harbor, where you can moor or anchor larger boats.
Fantastic family destination. Also great for one couple or family, or as many as three couples, and extended families. Many repeat guests over many decades.
For a change of pace, please check out our one bedroom waterfront cottage in North Truro (#3506195), our 3 bedroom walk-to-water all season cape (#976979) and our charming 4 bedroom house in Woodstock, Vermont (#3809315), which is great in both winter (for skiing as it's near Killington, Pico & Okemo mountains) and summer/fall.

About the host
Hosted by Liz Gruber
We have been coming to Truro for the past 33 years and love it's natural beauty as well as it's proximity to the charm and fun atmosphere of Provincetown. We own two other waterfront/walk-to-water Truro properties, so please check out Homeaway listings #976979 and #3506195 for additional opportunities.
Why they chose this property
Fantastic waterfront location, and charming old cape appeal.
What makes this property unique
Water is 100 feet from house. Sunsets are fabulous. Small but cozy with some modern amenities.
