Charming Sun Filled Eastham Cottage at Fort Hill

We loved the location because there was easy access to both the upper and lower Cape. The kitchen had all the tools and pans we needed to cook some simple suppers, and the bed is very very comfortable.

We had a great week staying at the cottage. The setup and proximity to the Outer Cape is perfect for a weekend or full week stay. Maren was easily accessible and communicative and let us check in well before the time listed. Would stay here again!

This house is great for relaxing We had a wonderful visit. We haven't been so at ease in years. We especially loved the proximity to Fort Hill. Most days, gray or sunny, we took our chairs and books and went to the upper parking lot where we sat and read and overlooked the beautiful ocean vista. And, the kitchen is so well stocked with utensils and appliances. We ate in often, although I did have to run down some fresh oysters on the half shell a few times. Now to the idiosyncrasies. The house is meagerly lit with low wattage bulbs. We couldn't read at night. It was too dark. Also, some instructions should be left for operating things. The heat/AC box was a bit of a challenge. The fact that the television was a ROKU set required I do some google searching to learn how to turn it on when the remote wouldn't and how to navigate the services. We did discover a 24/7 MIDSOMER MURDERS channel which we enjoyed in the lowly lit evenings. And finally, it is certainly the only place we have ever been that has a full-length glass door to the outside in the bathroom. We taped newspapers over it for some privacy. I recommend sport sections. We chose not to be troubled by these things, but we did get a laugh or too. These are things that might trouble some people more. Thanks, Maren, for our two weeks in your lovely cottage.

Delightful house

We have been staying here for years! Love the location and design aesthetic!

Absolute perfect location and layout. Loved being able to sit on the screened porch to begin and end the day - we never even used the living room. The outdoor shower had direct access to the bathroom. Kitchen was spacious with plenty of room for two to work. This location can't be beat for access to mid and outer cape. The view from Fort Hill is one of the prettiest on the cape. Would 100% stay again.

Marin was easy to reach and quickly responsive to a problem that arose with internet access, bravely tackling the robo- and 'human person' nightmare of the cable company. It is a nice location, a clean property and very comfortable. It would even be better if there was a line to hang-dry towels, etc, and maybe some shelving for 'stuff.'

A cozy, clean and comfortable little house, great for 2 people. The host was very responsive to our questions. We had everything we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation.

Beautifully refurbished with hardwood floors, working fireplace, immaculate kitchen with stainless steel appliances and everything you need for your stay, oThis cottage is a gem. The location is wonderful, a stones throw from Captain Penniman’s House in the Fort Hill Area. As noted, lack of closet space and privacy are the only issues.

We enjoyed Maren’s home very much. It is cute, well decorated, and had a very well stocked chef’s kitchen for cooking! The location was great, right near a beautiful nature trail and easy to access the outer cape and lower cape. The bathroom was a great size and we loved the screened in porch and fun (pug) decorations. One thing to note, as is mentioned in the description, the place is small and does not have much in the way of closets. We got creative with where we stored clothes and it was fine. Overall, I recommend this home.
