great escape to relax

The property is exactly as listed and pictured. Perfect location for the beach and exploring the Cape. The gas fireplace was beautiful on the cool nights in April and nothing could beat the glass enclosed sun porch. Couldn't enjoy sitting or eating outside or no need for the outside shower due to the weather but a perfect outside shower. Communication with owner no issue.Highly recommend!

Amazing

Beautiful house (pictures don’t do it justice), immaculately clean, just a few houses away from the beach. We loved the fireplace when it got chilly and sitting outside when it was warm. Enjoyed watching the sun set at the beach. Owners very responsive and helpful. Already thinking about when we can come back!

Perfect location, perfect cottage

We absolutely loved our week-stay in this cottage. The location was ideal. Only a short walk to the beach to watch amazing sunsets. We were close to other beaches, restaurants and some fantastic golf courses. The cottage had everything we needed. Initially we were missing a few items that were listed as being included in the rental and Paula and Charles were very responsive and brought these items over right away. This was a much needed relaxing getaway and we would highly recommend it.

A place to rest and recharge

We had a great time and experience in this little getaway residence. It was cozy and quiet. Everything there for our conveinence. Just steps away from the beach for long walks and a nice glass of wine on the rocks facing the ocean I could not ask for more. Looking forward to returning

Great fall getaway

What a lovely spot for a fall trip! The kitchen was perfectly appointed for both cooking from scratch and reheating takeout, and everything was super clean - both key in the era of COVID. The location was convenient to all my favorite spots in Eastham and Wellfleet. Just the shortest walk to a beautiful bay beach, and the gas fireplace kept the house toasty and inviting even on a rainy or chilly night. Thank you for a great long weekend escape in a challenging year!

Just Right.

We came for the long weekend and the place was exactly what we wanted, a cozy little place on the seashore. There was plenty of space for the 4 of us and it was nicely appointed with everything we needed. We loved the decor and that the beach was just a short walk from the cottage. Even though it was October, there was still plenty to do in the area. Autumn in Cape Cod is something I will certainly experience again. Charles and Paula were excellent hosts who kept in touch while we stayed over. Just a wonderful trip all round.

Fall in love

This charming cottage was the perfect headquarters for our fall visit to Cape Cod. We wanted to relax and recharge and this place was ideal: blissfully quiet, exceedingly comfortable, thoughtfully equipped and perfectly maintained. We made full use of the well-organized kitchen and enjoyed meals on the enclosed porch. The gas fireplace was especially welcome on cool evenings and mornings. We loved our long walks along the gorgeous beach, just a few steps from the cottage. The sunsets were stunning! A short drive takes you to many outstanding destinations, including the splendid Massachusetts Audubon Society Wildlife Sanctuary and National Seashore sites. You don’t have to go far to find the best of Cape Cod. It’s evident that the owners truly care about the property and make every effort to accommodate their guests. Would we go back to Steele Away Cottage? In a heartbeat!

Perfect for us!

We loved everything about Steele Away! The size, the location, the proximity to the beach...it was awesome! The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were comfortable and we loved the fireplace in the cool evenings. We also loved the sunporch and had our coffee there every morning. Eastham was convenient to everything we wanted to do and see. We'll definitely be back!💖 And the owners are responsive, helpful and courteous!

Perfect September Vacation on the Cape

We loved our week in Eastham. The house was conveniently located near a very nice beach and the the right distance to the amazing Cape Cod Rail Trail which we biked on almost every day we were there. We especially loved the huge outdoor shower. It got really chilly a few nights when we were hanging in but there was a gas fireplace which warmed us up. Highly recommend this house.

Relaxing, quiet week

The house is compact and comfortable. It easily accommodates 2-4 people. Space is provided for two more people, probably best if they are children or young adults. The skylights in the living room are bright enough that I thought they were floodlights and spent several minutes looking for a switch to turn them off/down. They do a great job lighting the central part of the house. The shower in the bathroom is claustraphobic. If the weather permits, I encourage you to use the outdoor shower. It has much to recommend it. The property is well maintained, secluded and handsome. A stroll through the surrounding streets is a good way to spend an afternoon. The beach is less than a five-minute walk away. The sand is lovely, though the amount of seaweed in the water made swimming less appealing. At low tide, the beach stretches for several hundred yards or more; there are no dropoffs to surprise the unwary wader.

Great beach house right by the bay

Our family of 4 loved staying at this beach house. The location was really ideal. It was a short 2 minute walk to the bay beach and a 2 minute drive to Hole in One, which has the best pastries and coffee! The house is exactly as you see in the pictures. The sun room is a lovely addition to the house. Having AC was a nice bonus although we rarely needed it during our stay. The outdoor shower was huge and had both hot and cold water. I usually stay at beach houses that are part of a private association beach. The beach access here is a public beach. However, not having the stairs of a private association beach was really nice and our beach was never crowded even though it had public access. We were very pleased with this house!

Great 2 minute walk to bayside beach and lots of shade and privacy in the yard to cool off & relax after. Excellent outdoor shower also. Quick ride to ocean beaches too. Everything you need is in the cottage and owners easy to reach if needed. Looking forward to returning in the future.

Refreshing Get Away at the Cape

I cannot say enough about this rental! The location is prime- barely a 2 minute walk from a private beach. The house has a private yard and two porches. We ate all of our meals outside! The grill was a great addition and we used it for cooking breakfast, lunch and dinner. Inside, the home was comfortable and clean. I enjoyed sleeping in the porch bedroom which had beautiful lighting in the morning. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, colanders, tin foil, different kinds of glasses and many other utensils that helped us cook. We loved the fireplace as well, since the nights are still a bit chilly in May. There were games, books and extra blankets in the closet. A well thought out vacation home. There is talk of coming back next year already. Thanks to Charles and Paula for welcoming us into their home.

Great place to relax

As shown. Immaculate. Well supplied kitchen with plenty of utensils which I appreciated as I like to cook. Furnishings are lovely and well thought out. We loved the sunporch. The ocean is right there! Charles and Paula were helpful and responsive. We will probably go back but will wait for owners to make the insulation changes they have planned to come back in cool weather. That was our 4star instead of 5. Be sure to note that you need to bring sheets and towels.

About the host

Hosted by Charles and Paula Cocce

We have vacationed with our kids in Eastham for over twenty five years. It has always been our dream to own a home that we can share with others to create memories like the ones that we have enjoyed for so long. Eastham is an area for all ages and interests. It goes beyond the beautiful beaches and water sports to include sightseeing of American Indian and Pilgrim settlements, whale watching, nature trails, vineyard tours and natural history.

Why they chose this property

The proximity of this cottage to the beach is commented on consistently by our guests. Being just a one minute walk away allows you to make easy trips back and forth whenever you need to, be it a cold drink, a bathroom visit or a change of clothes. The property itself offers a private backyard for relaxing after a day at the beach or when cooking out. Our most popular feature at the cottage is the fabulous outdoor shower. Don't forget to try showering under the stars! However, before you do that, you'll want to walk those few steps back to the beach to watch the sun setting into the ocean on a clear day. This is an east coast rarity and one that never grows old - even after twenty five years!
