Wonderfully well kept and decorated cottage in a small private community with short walking distances to most places. Off street designated parking was a major plus! Easy check in and out made our stay all the more enjoyable. We can’t wait to go back!
I can’t begin to say how appreciative we are for our stay. My wife and I recently had a fire in our home and we were temporarily displaced with our dogs. The owner was understanding and respectful which made a stressful time in our lives less difficult. My wife and I (and canine children) are extremely thankful.
Well stocked, clean and cozy little cottage. Short walk to everything nearby (bike rentals, grocery store, gym, etc.) It was nice and quiet but still just a few blocks away from everything on Commercial St.
Great little cottage with lofted bedroom space. Good living space and bathroom size. AC works well. Kitchen has all the essentials plus laundry! Great location, walking distance to commercial street and grocery/liquor store. Would stay again!
All the positive reviews and descriptions are accurate. The cottage is in great condition, well appointed and very convenient with a full kitchen and washer/dryer. The cottage was very clean. The property is very conveniently located a few feet from a grocery story and a short walk to restaurants and Commercial and Bradford Streets.
The owner communicated with me well with check-in directions which were clear and offered suggestions for an easier stay. During my two week stay, there was an imminent threat of severe weather in the form of a hurricane. The owner communicated everything that may need to be done and kept me up-to-date.
The one piece of advice I would leave regarding this cottage is that if you have any physical limitation that would prevent you from climbing to use the loft bed, this may not be the place for you.
I would gladly rent this cottage again in the future.

PERFECT!!!
My partner and I departed Maryland at 5:30am on Saturday morning. We arrived in Provincetown at 2pm. Traffic was light and it was a pleasant drive.
The West End Cottage was ready when we got there. It was clean, neat, and the location is excellent. The cottage had everything to make our stay complete! It had coffee, salad dressing, spices. Really, too much to mention....but, every need was met. The shower was better than the one we have at home!! At night, it was sooo quiet...sleep came easy! A 2 minute walk to Commercial St. and Stop & Shop supermarket is two houses down...super convenient. We sampled most of the popular restaurants in town...each one as awesome as the one we tried the night before. Try the Post Office Café!! It was a fantastic vacation! The only negative was that the week was over way too fast!! We have never felt so rested. Even our little dog loved it.
David is an awesome host. He is responsive and very attentive. He's thought of everything. We rate this lodging "F" for FANTASTIC. Thanks David!
My husband and I could not have enjoyed our stay in this wonderful, private cottage that was perfectly located for all of our needs and wants. We stayed for 2 weeks and didn't have to move our car once. It had all the amenities we needed and then some. Communication with the owner was great and really made us feel welcome. We would highly recommend staying here to enjoy your Provincetown visit to the fullest!

We rented this property for the first 2 weeks of July 2022 and could not have been more pleased. It was exactly as advertised, nice cozy small cottage, with all the amenities needed for a carefree stay for 2. The location is the best part! Most people assume Shank Painter is off the beaten path, but it is ideal location to all the West End has to offer. It is a 2 block walk to the Boatalip for tea and yet far enough away from Commercial to be quite and private. The cottage is situated behind a beautiful garden well back from the street so it is wonderfully quiet and peaceful. The grocery store is steps away, so convenient for quick trips. The gym and home rental are also 2 blocks away. We will definitely be returning to this wonderful property!
Stayed 3 nights to attend a wedding. Everything was great. Super close to the Stop and Shop and other essential stores and just a few blocks to Commercial Street. The cottage is set back from the road which helps since Shank Painter is a busier road. Way better than a hotel and the convenience of a kitchen/ grill and washer/dryer. Will be back soon!
The cottage is a wonderful place to stay! The location is great…walking to distance to town, the dog park, bike rentals and groceries. The layout works so well, and the extra outdoor space is a treat for coffee and drinks. It was fully stocked and we had everything we needed for a week’s vacation.
This place is wonderful! It is very convenient to the shops and restaurants in Provincetown and close to Stop and Shop yet it is set back from the road and quiet. There are lovely gardens in front of the cottages.
Loved our stay here! Hope to book again next year!
We loved our stay here The place was adorable but well laid out so there was room for my husband and me and our two dogs. Great location... Right next to Stop n shop, down the street from the dog park, and a very short walk to commercial Street. It was great having a washer dryer and a dishwasher (though I really didn't miss my garbage disposal) The only negative thing I have to say is the back area was a little neglected and the grill was clean...not what I expected, but it was fine. Thanks for a great stay!
My wife and I both thought this cottage was perfect for our week-long visit to Provincetown. Everything was spotless when we arrived. Convenient parking, friendly neighbors, short walk to town and a short bike ride to Herring Cove Beach, where we went almost every day. Short walk from a grocery and several fantastic restaurants. Excellent water pressure in the shower. Lots of thoughtful touches throughout made it easy for us to keep clean and be prepared for any occasion. The host, David, was very responsive and went the extra mile to accommodate a special request. We can't wait to return!
The cottage was simple but had everything we needed. Convenient to Commercial Street with all its attractions, and also to the Stop and Shop, just feet down the road.
Comfortable and has everything you need, and you can walk everywhere! David is a wonderful host, super accommodating and responsive. We will definitely come back!
This cottage was the perfect getaway for us. David was very responsive, the place was sparkling clean, and it’s a great walkable location. We can’t wait to come back!
This cottage is a short walk to just about everything--restaurants, coffee shops, grocery store, liquor store, and everything on Commercial Street. It is also in a quiet and peaceful location. It's really the best of both worlds! And if you like wildlife, there's plenty of it behind the cottage. We saw rabbits, squirrels, and lots of birds, and we heard foxes and owls at night. We had a wonderful stay!

About the host
Hosted by David
Why they chose this property
We were looking for a small, affordable, cottage where we can get away from it all and enjoy everything Provincetown has to offer. That the cottage actually offers some privacy in a densely populated village is a huge bonus. During your stay, if you come by car, you don't need it at all during your stay. You can walk to the beaches, town and Stop and Shop. If you rent a bike, the entire National Seashore is yours, and you can store the bikes out back while you stay. With a full kitchen and wifi, the place will feel like home as soon as you arrive.
