About this property

The Alpine/Walk to Beach for 2 or more!

Brought to you by the Heart of Cape Cod, The Alpine is a cozy bayside escape just a short walk from iconic Thumpertown Beach. Enjoy peaceful mornings on the deck, afternoons kayaking or playing Bocce, and evenings in the game room. With comforts like strong Wi-Fi, Smart TVs, and central air/heating, it’s perfect for sunny summer weeks or brisk autumn retreats. Beach towels and kayaks available in summer, but the charm lasts all year.

We respect the autonomy of our guests but are available by text, email, phone, carrier pigeon, smoke signal, yodeling, or Facetime

Bayside beach. Very central to everything. Close to Cape Cod Rail Trail (bike trail), kettle ponds, ocean side Coast Guard and Nauset Light beach, Salt Pond Visitors Center, Eastham Windmill, and First Encounter beach.

Brought to you by the Heart of Cape Cod, The Alpine is more than a vacation rental—it’s a place to slow down, breathe deeply, and experience the Cape in all its timeless beauty.
Just 176 yards from the treasured Thumpertown Beach, this home invites you to begin your day with the scent of salt in the air and end it in comfort and calm. On summer mornings, open the windows to bay breezes and birdsong as you head down to the beach before the crowds even wake. You return sandy and smiling, rinsing off in the outdoor shower before preparing lunch from the garden or grilling under the sun.
In the winter, the stillness is profound. The parking lot at Thumpertown is empty, and the only sound is your footsteps along the flats. Gulls drift overhead, hoping for leftover treats that summer no longer brings. The icy breeze bites gently at your cheeks, but the beauty is staggering—especially at sunset, when the sky blooms into outrageous reds, pinks, and chartreuse that you’ll swear only exist here. You return to The Alpine with sand on your boots and the kind of calm that settles in the bones. The couch is deep and cozy, the Wi-Fi is strong, and your evening awaits—games, streaming, dinner, and a cup of tea on the screened porch.
This is not just a place to stay—it’s a place to remember. Whether you’re here for laughter with family, reconnection with friends, or a quiet personal escape, The Alpine is designed to feel like home the moment you arrive.

💡 Airbnb Guest Fee Transparency
We believe in clear pricing. We only set two things: the nightly rate and a fair cleaning fee (what our professional team charges to clean/reset the home). Airbnb adds its own platform service fee and collects local taxes. These are not controlled or collected by us but are added into the total price you see.


Communication with guests is important to us. Please be sure you have app notifications turned on for your phone as this will be our means of communicating with you before, during, and after your stay. Our digital guidebooks contain directions, instructions, and access information. It is your responsibility to review this information prior to arrival.

Great week on Cape Code

We loved staying at Alpine House. It felt private and had all the amenities we could have asked for. They provided all the beach equipment and towels, along with boogie boards and even a wagon to get it down the road. We were big fans of the screened in porch, which allowed us to have dinners "outside" without getting bitten by mosquitos. The beach is only a few minutes walk, but it is a very small beach, so try to get there earlier to get a good spot. The water was lovely and warm and not too deep. Perfect for our almost 7 year old. Would highly recommend this property.

Asked property owner if the AC could be repaired…she reported me as a trespasser to the police

I’ve been traveling for 20 years and never encountered anything like this. We selected this property for its location and the central air conditioning, as I have 3 little kids and like to keep the property secure at night with the windows shut. We let Tara, the property manager, know the air conditioning was broken on our 1st full day at the property. On our 2nd day, around lunchtime, I asked by text if they’d had any success in contacting a repairman. Tara surprisingly replied that AC for the property was ‘clearly not necessary’ and subsequently abruptly cancelled the reservation mid-stay, which was not what I requested or desired in the middle of my son’s birthday weekend! Prior to this there was 1 phone call and 2 casual texts about getting the house cooler over an 18 hour period from me, which I thought was pretty normal/reasonable for a customer who paid a premium for an air conditioned house. We were at the beach when she apparently sent the app message to “vacate the property” with no specified timeline. Shortly after we returned from the beach for the day, she suddenly appeared in the living room—she had let herself into the house unannounced. She immediately began stating that I had been “converted to a trespasser” in front of my children while standing in the living room. She then stormed out of the house and called the police. I was in total shock. The officers who came were very patient and understanding—they categorized this as a civil matter and we agreed that it would be best and safest for all to stay at a hotel down the street. My son has been asking me all day why the police came to see Mom and Dad! We had to hurriedly throw everything in the car and find somewhere to go for our final night in the area.

Fabulous vacation house

This house was a perfect vacation spot for our family of 5 adults and 2 children (3 & 6). The linens were a must, nothing better than all the beds made upon arrival. They thought of everything in this rental, even little touches that you would not expect. Location is perfect for swimming on the beach and sunsets. Highly recommend!!

Great location by the bay!

Property was clean and as advertised. Property manager was very responsive. 3 min walk to the bay and 5 min drive to ocean beaches made this a great location.

Nice quiet place

Great for a family and adult friends. Short 5 minute walk to Thumpertown Beach. The house bed arragement is a little odd but with two 3 persons bedroom but it works Nice big screened in porch for socializing with out bugs. Outdoor shower is a huge plus. It was a great place overall
