About this property

Truly Wonderful Cape Cottage

Cottage #4 was completely renovated for my personal use and never intended as a rental. Well a move to the West Coast changed all that. So…Cottage #4 has everything I love and wanted in a cottage, a big kitchen designed for a cook.. with great appliances, great pots and pans, good knives, big gas stove, Bosch dishwasher, redwood counters, and an old soapstone sink. The bedroom has a comfortable queen sized bed, large window and skylight. The bathroom is beautiful and has a full sized washer and dryer, but the outdoor shower is all you will use. There is a big screen porch overlooking a private yard and wooded wetlands. The cottage has cable TV (flat screen), and high speed internet. Its a spacious cottage perfect for two people. Just 2 miles to the national seashore beaches and a a short walk to beautiful Fort Hill and views of Nauset Marsh. My past guests have all said how much they feel at home in the cottage...and never want to leave.

I have a wonderful housekeeper who ensures the cottage is clean for the next guest. She is only available on Sundays. So the cottage is rented weekly from Sunday to Sunday. Please note, guests do need to provide their own sheets and towels. Otherwise the cottage is well stocked.

FULLY equipped kitchen was such a pleasure including some basics like oil, salt, pepper, sugar, etc. something that always frustrates me at vacation spots is the lack of these things, so thank you for providing them. It made all the difference in what we needed to pack and go to the store to purchase. Cozy, comfortable, a perfect getaway, even with bad weather most of the week. I wish I could’ve stayed longer!
Sunset our last night at Fort Hill
On the walk to Fort Hill lies this huge tree that clearly fell at least 6 years ago with a newer tree planted where it was and the fallen one still alive as growth of leaves shows. Really interesting.

This is a wonderful summer cottage with a great screened in porch. It’s compact, but just the right size for my husband and I enjoying a second year of renting this property. It’s within easy walking distance of Fort Hill and its beautiful views of water and marsh. You’re also close to the National Seashore, stores and restaurants.

The cottage is very tastefully decorated, well equipped and very comfortable for two people. The bed is great! It is on beautiful Fort Hill and only two minutes by car from the National Seashore headquarters. Air conditioning is helpful for those very hot days.

About the host

Hosted by Michael Meluskey

Host profile image
Had lived in Boston when I bought the cottages. I now live in Santa Barbara and manage a winery. This cottage is my sanctuary, where I go to relax and escape. A lot of love has gone into this cottage.

Why they chose this property

When I bought this property, it included all four cottages. I loved the proximity to Fort Hill and for many years would bring my whole family together.... everyone had a cottage. Moving to West Coast made this all difficult to manage, so sold off two cottages to friends. For many years we had our own compound, was a lot of fun.

What makes this property unique

I love to cook, and the cottage was designed to cook for a crowd. Its the best equipped rental kitchen you will find. The cottage is also filled with a mix of flea market treasures and beautiful art.
