About this property

From Mid June through Labor Day, Summer Rentals are Saturday to Saturday. Nestled In the Cape Cod National Seashore. Enjoy this secluded cottage style apartment; only 0.2 (two tenths) of a mile from Coast Guard Beach. Another mile north along Ocean View Drive you will find Nauset Light, and the Three Sisters Lighthouses. A European Copper Beach Tree welcomes you to our home and offers shade on a hot day. A rose covered rock wall gives a feeling of Cape Cod so many years ago. Guests can walk to the beach, go for hikes, bike rides, or kayak adventures nearby. The interior of the apartment has a living room with a Vermont Cast-Iron gas stove for off season warmth. Three large windows gives an open roomy effect. There is SMART TV with Antenna service. The newly renovated kitchen (2023) is completely functional and has a gas stove, microwave, and new (2023) refridgerator. The bath on the first floor includes a stackable washer/dryer. Two small bedrooms upstairs; each has a double size bed. There are small window A/C in the upstairs bedrooms. NO air conditioning downstairs, but fans are provided. In the summer season we usually will only accept full week rentals, Saturday to Saturday. Thank you for understanding.

There is a small patio with a gas grill, and a small, rather private deck which includes an outside shower.

Very nearby is a bike trail that leads to The Salt Pond Visitors Center just a mile up the road. Here one may find natural resources and information, as well as organized canoe or kayak adventures (in season), and a great little gift shop.

Options within a mile or two are too many to list; but a few are: An Athletic Club, Drive In Theatre, Movie Theater, Wildlife Sanctuaries, Famous Cape Cod Flea Market, Golf, Tennis courts and more. Please come and enjoy the natural surroundings and/or tourist attractions of the cape.

I Found Heaven

If you love to walk for miles on empty beaches, listen for birds, bicycle for miles and miles on bike trails, and have total privacy, including an outdoor shower in a wide open sky, this place is for you. Literally a 5 minute walk to the ocean, which you can roar at night if the wind is in the right direction. The place could not be more comfortable, the kitchen has superb pans and good knives. The outside deck is perfect for meals and reading. As another person said who stayed here: I will be back! Thanks to Suzanne and Dan who clearly love their little peace of heaven.

Wonderful stay

We stayed for the weekend and wished we could've stayed longer! The apartment is cute, comfortable and perfectly appointed. The location can't be beat as it is minutes away from Coast Guard beach, the bike path and the Salt Pond Visitor center. The bike path provided a beautiful walking route. We were able to head out for dinner with ease and plenty of options. The hostess, Suzie, was available and kind. We highly recommend this rental.

A cozy retreat

Suzie's place (and Suzie!) is remarkable -- this home is in an ideal location for exploring the Cape, within walking distance to the Atlantic, yet quiet and secluded. This rental is very comfortable, well-appointed and simply delightful (we loved the gas fireplace stove!) Our host made us feel most welcome and recommended good restaurants in the area. We liked this property so much, we booked our next year's stay before we even left!

Peaceful Getaway

My husband and I enjoyed a much needed fall getaway to Cape Cod and stayed at Suzie’s lovely cottage just minutes from Coast Guard Beach (Mid Cape). The place was adorable, warm and cozy. Situated on a beautiful lot off the main road, it was quiet and peaceful. The property had a nice private deck and outdoor shower as well as a cute patio for grilling. Inside the place was spotless and you could see all the attention to detail Suzie put into decorating. My husband enjoyed early morning walks to the beach in about 5-10 minutes. Suzie was a wonderful and warm host who greeted us when we arrived and took care of our every need. We will definitely be coming back!

Perfect space and location!!

Suzie and Dan have created a lovely home in a perfect location along the National Seashore Beach. It is minutes from Nauset and Coast Guard beaches, tucked away and quiet but also centrally located just moments from the main road and everything the Cape has to offer. The home is small, and attached to the owner’s home. It is impeccably clean and very well appointed, with anything you might want or need for a weekend or a week. A beautiful outdoor shower, washer dryer set, updated kitchen - it’s just lovely! But what is even MORE lovely? SUZIE - she is just wonderful. We went down for a girls’ weekend, and ended up there during a storm. She sent us SO many options of things to do and see, as well as dropped off a cribbage board and took a pic of us! She just wanted us to have a great stay, and made every effort to make that happen, from answering questions when I was booking, to being available anytime we needed anything (which we didn’t, because she already thought of everything!) THANK YOU Suzie and Dan!!

Private apartment in great location

Great location walkable to Coast Guard Beach. Property is set back from the road, so very quiet. Easy drive to other Outer Cape locations like PTown, Truro, and WellFleet. Suzi and her family were very welcoming and attentive but also gave us plenty of space. Overall a great stay.

Great place! Walking distance to coast guard beach

We spent a week here with our 2.5yr old and this place was so perfect for us. Suzie is a wonderful host and so helpful with suggestions for anyone visiting the area. We really enjoyed our week here. We took full advantage of Coast guard beach which is a short walk away and nauset light beach was a nice evening visit at just a mile or so down the road. Suzie suggested Skaket beach which was a total gem at low tide and sunset. We highly recommend this to anyone seeking a peaceful stay close to the ocean and manageable distance to chatham and provincetown

Lovely attached unit close to the beach

Cozy, mini-apartment attached to the host's house on a well-planted property just a 5 minute walk from the beach. Kitchen is newly renovated and well-equipped. Seating areas on back deck and by the grill. Easy walk to the beach or lighthouse; slightly longer walk to Cape Code seashore trails. Perfect for a quiet weekend of hiking, beaching and reading. Suzi is a delightful hostess, eager to make sure all is working, but also respectful of your desired level of privacy.

quiet, and close to everything

Located set back from the road, this property was very quiet (day and night), but still very close to activities, restaurants, and one of the best beaches in the Cape. My wife, and 3 year old daughter really had a great time. The owners were friendly and available if needed, but certainly weren't overbearing. This is one of the better rentals we've had over the years. We never stay in the same place twice, but we may make an exception for this property. Highly recommended.

Wonderful experience!

Everything about our stay was amazing. The apartment is clean, cozy, and private. Being able to walk so easily to the beach is awesome, especially when the parking lots fill up so often, and the bike trail is really close by. Suzie and Dan are absolutely the best hosts ever, warm, respectful, and genuinely lovely people. We've rented a number of homes through VRBO and airbnb, and this was without a doubt the best experience we've ever had. Can't wait to go back!!

Wonderful Cape escape

We have just left and want to go back. It’s hard to believe that places like this still exist on the Cape. The apartment is in the woods at the end of a year round home on a two acre lot. Other than the owners, there are no neighbors, just peace and privacy. You are within the National Seashore (a national treasure) and in just ten minutes I walked from the apartment door to the sand of coast guard beach. The apartment itself has an “old Cape” feel, and is clean and quiet. Suzie and Dan, the owners, live at the other end of the 100 year old house, and are completely respectful of your privacy, but warm, love, hospitable, helpful. We liked them lots! We would go back in an instant.

Perfect Location and Welcoming Hosts

We loved the central location for all we wanted to do on Cape Cod. The cottage apartment is very relaxing and peaceful. Coffee on the small patio in the back and watching the wild turkey cross the lawn was fun! Our hosts, Suzie and Dan (and Cricket) were awesome. We really enjoyed our stay and wish it could have been longer.

A week by the beach

What a cute little apartment by the beach! We are a family of 4, kids are 3 and 4 and we couldn't have asked for a nicer vacation near the seashore. Located right in the National Seashore, a quick 5-10 minute walk to coast guard beach, this is a really cute place to stay while you enjoy Cape Cod. The cottage style apartment is equipped with everything you need to feel right at home on vacation. Everything from kitchen utensils, to coffee maker, to appliances. We definitely needed and used the washer dryer on this trip! The owners went out of their way to be welcoming and make sure we had everything. We could walk to the beach to watch the seals and jump in the waves. It's also a quick drive to the bay side to enjoy First Encounter Beach which was perfect for little kids during low tide. The Nauset lighthouse is about a mile away which made for a great morning run and also a fun family excursion to the top. (Tours in the late afternoon- check the schedule.) Arnold's was a classic takeaway place with mini golf and great fried food. Close by. The chocolate cafe is also close and has a purple truck that comes to the beaches and has the best ice cream sandwiches. Not to be missed. If you're hikers, I'd recommend the Marconi swamp trail which has boardwalks and an easy trail for little kids. Really an ideal location, sweet beach house and warm welcoming hosts.

Great property in a great location

We've rented this cottage twice. It's clean, neat and well-equipped and wonderfully located just a short walk from one of the nicest beaches in Cape Cod. The owners are friendly and helpful and they take great pride in their property. We've referred friends to this place and will definitely return here the next time we can.

Perfect vacation spot

We have stayed here several years in a row -- each vacation better than the last! For us, this place offers the best of the Cape: wonderful owners, great accomodations, easy access to restaurants, theaters, art galleries, balanced by the serenity and privacy of this "cottage". There is nothing like coming from a wonderful morning at the hot beach to the shaded privacy of your own little patio where there is almost always a breeze. My husband and I feel this place is perfect for the two of us. We highly recommend it -- unless, of course, you want to try to come during our weeks !

About the host

Hosted by Suzanne Schwebach

My husband, Daniel and I moved into this home in 1996. Prior to us it was in the family since the early 1970's when my brother, a sea captain bought this home and brought it back to life. We raised our 3 sons here, and tried to make it a friendly, welcoming, peaceful place to visit.
