Located on the outer Cape, the town is bounded on two sides by land, the other two by water, the Atlantic Ocean and Cape Cod Bay. Eastham is a quiet town with several ocean and bay beaches, a host of kettle ponds, pretty country lanes, panoramic views of Cape Cod Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, and lots of wide-open space for nature lovers.

The location is close to hiking and biking trails, restaurants and walking distance to the beach and sunsets. The fireplace was much appreciated on the cool evenings.The host was easily contacted when we had a question.
We enjoyed a short break in Eastham and found this home to be the perfect base for a few days of exploration on the Outer Cape. The kitchen is well appointed, the living spaces are welcoming, and the outdoor patios made for great places to relax at any time of day. Best location we could have wished for and great hosts!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this cottage, which is comfortable, nicely appointed and well-stocked with everything needed to enjoy a week at the beach. The cottage is in a superb location, with easy access to all the venues we treasure: bay beaches, ocean beaches, Mass Audubon, the Great Island Trail in Wellfleet, the bike trail and many great places to get delicious seafood. When we weren't out and about our beloved Outer Cape, we loved spending peaceful time in the cottage's yard or walking down to Cook's Brook to savor beach views at various times and tides. Would definitely come back to this delightful cottage!
Great location, nice house, really enjoyed the gas fireplace!

Beautiful place in an A+ location
We loved staying at Charles' place - it's a well-appointed, charming cottage with absolutely everything you need for a great getaway. The location can't be beat - steps away from the beach! Hope to come back again soon.
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 size and location for our family
This house had the perfect set up for our family of 5. We spent Memorial Day weekend there and had 3 seasons of weather. On the hot days we sat out on the deck and had our morning coffee. And on the cold and rainy days, we put the gas fire on and it warmed up the whole house just enough to take the chill away.
We also loved being able to take a short walk down to the beach. We would definitely book again. Thank you!

Wonderful for a family trip!
The cottage had everything we needed for our family beach vacation. The beach supplies and trolley were perfect for the short trip to the beach. (we only needed the trolley since we had so many chairs / toys for the kids not because it was far at all). The deck and outdoor shower were perfect to clean off our toddlers after a long day at the beach. We enjoyed evenings on the deck and mornings on the front porch. The cottage had plenty of room and the enclosed front porch area with the third bedroom served as a great space for the kids to color & play when they needed a break from the sun outside. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed for the (limited) cooking we did at home but it was nice to have that as an option. The owners were accommodating to our schedules & requests and extremely accessible and easy to reach when we had questions. We would definitely return in the future and recommend to other families.
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!
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.

A very nice vacation rental. The owners have upgraded the property & it's close to the beach.
From first sight this is a very good rental. Exterior and interior upgrades are obvious (see photo flip-folio located on the hanging plate cabinet). We loved the spacious hot water outdoor shower. Washer and dryer are a plus for mid-week laundry (didn't have to pack as much clothing). The gas fireplace was great for mid-September chill mornings and evenings. Cook's Brook Beach, a short walk away, had beautiful sunsets. Having good cable TV made for good am and pm news and weather viewing, and evening baseball games. Alexa was a hoot. One moment "she" could understand "Eastham" and the next not. Overall, a good, solid rental. Only a few suggestions, some of which may be in the next wave of upgrades: 1-indoor shower had wonky doors and some mildew/mold around bottom. 2-Bathmat could have used a good washing before we arrived; we weren't sure if stacked washer would be too out of balance, or we would have washed it. 3-Beds were too hard for any of the 3 of us to sleep comfortably. 4-Sofa and matching chair were also uncomfortable to sit on for any duration. 5-House instructions could be updated to correct wifi password typo (case-sensitive).
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!
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!
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.
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
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!
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.
