Beach Walks, Books & Bay Sunsets

Beach walks, books, and bay sunsets await at Sports' Viewpoint. Just steps from Pilgrim Pines Beach, this historic Brewster retreat blends water views, original artwork, original authored books, and a lifetime of Cape Cod stories into a truly memorable stay. Built by a Brewster native and filled with creative spirit, collected treasures, and a relaxed adult vibe, this charming saltbox offers a rare opportunity to experience a side of Cape Cod that feels authentic, timeless, and unforgettable.

I respect the autonomy of my guests and can easily be reached by facetime, email, text, carrier pigeon, smoke signal, or yodeling. 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.

We love our neighbors! The neighborhood is quiet, picturesque, peaceful, and a mix of year round and summer homes. Our family members live next door as well.

There are homes built for vacations, and then there are homes built for a lifetime of stories.

Welcome to Sports' Viewpoint, a beloved Brewster retreat just steps from Pilgrim Pines Association Beach, where ocean views, original artwork, treasured antiques, and decades of Cape Cod history come together in one unforgettable home.

Built in 1977 by a Brewster native affectionately known as "Sport," this 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom saltbox colonial was thoughtfully designed around the things she loved most: light, air, and the sea. Today, her family continues to share this special place with guests seeking something increasingly rare: a home with soul.

Unlike a typical vacation rental, Sports' Viewpoint is filled with stories. Original artwork created by family members hangs throughout the home. Antiques collected over a lifetime add warmth and character to every room. Books authored by family members (and propositioned for movies!) line the shelves, inviting guests to slow down, unplug, and settle into the rhythm of Cape Cod.

One of the home's owners is an acclaimed author whose novels have captivated readers around the world. Many of her books can be found throughout the house, making this the perfect retreat for readers, writers, artists, and dreamers alike.

Morning coffee on the deck. A favorite novel in hand. Ocean breezes drifting through open windows. Fresh roses climbing the cedar shingles. Long conversations that somehow last until sunset.

This is the Cape you'll remember long after you've gone home.

This thoughtfully designed home comfortably accommodates up to six guests and features:
★ King bedroom with adjustable bed
★ Queen bedroom with adjustable bed
★ Third bedroom with queen bed (main floor)
★ Two full bathrooms
★ Bright living spaces with bay views
★ Well equipped kitchen
★ Dining area surrounded by books, art, and family history
★ Spacious deck with outdoor dining
★ Brand new grill
★ Beautiful yard and path to the beach
★ Original artwork and antiques throughout

The classic saltbox design fills the home with natural light, while glimpses of Cape Cod Bay remind you just how close the water is.

The Story Behind the House

Sport grew up in Brewster when classes at the town school numbered only eight students. Years later, she returned to the town she loved and built this home on family property overlooking the bay.
Art was one of Sport's greatest passions. The Asian prints displayed throughout the home were collected by family members living in Japan during the 1930s, while other pieces were discovered in one of Orleans' beloved art shops during the 1950s.
Outside, an heirloom Van Fleet rose traces its roots back to Brewster in 1930. A cutting from the original rose was planted here when the home was built and continues to bloom each June with delicate pale pink blossoms and an unforgettable fragrance.

Location
One of Sport's favorite things about this home was its proximity to the beach and it's easy to see why.
Spend your days exploring the Brewster Flats, collecting shells, swimming in Cape Cod Bay, visiting local galleries, or simply watching the changing colors of the water.
Perfectly positioned between the Cape Cod Canal and Provincetown, Sports' Viewpoint makes an ideal home base for exploring the entire Cape.

This home is especially suited for:
★ Couples traveling together
★ Readers and book lovers
★ Writers and artists seeking inspiration
★ History enthusiasts
★ Cape Cod traditionalists
★ Guests who appreciate antiques, artwork, and character

Because of the staircase, treasured artwork, antiques, books, and delicate décor throughout the home, Sports' Viewpoint is best suited for adults and older children who will appreciate and respect its unique character.
Sport never missed a sunset from this spot.
We think you'll understand why.

Booking Notes
We understand that plans can change and recommend purchasing travel insurance for peace of mind during your Cape Cod vacation.

For Airbnb: We set only two charges—a fair nightly rate and a cleaning fee based on what our professional team charges to reset the home. Airbnb adds their own platform service fee and collects local/state taxes separately. We don’t control or receive those amounts.

IMPORTANT: This privately owned home contains original artwork, antiques, collectibles, stairs, and fragile furnishings and is designated as not suitable for children or infants. Please review “Other things to note” and the House Rules carefully before booking if traveling with children.




We want your arrival and stay to go smoothly! Please keep notifications turned on for the booking platform and check your messages before and during your visit. Your digital guidebook contains directions, access details, and important information about the home. Please review it before arrival and reach out if anything is unclear.

Airbnb’s policies prevent us from enforcing a restriction on children staying at this home and require us to leave the suitability decision to the booking guest. This is Airbnb’s requirement, not our preferred approach to protecting this historic property.

Sports’ Viewpoint is not childproofed. It contains a steep staircase, original artwork, valuable antiques, collectibles, and fragile furnishings throughout its living spaces. These concerns exist regardless of how well behaved a child may be. The home and its contents will not be rearranged or modified to accommodate children. Please take these disclosures seriously before booking.

Airbnb’s Terms state that a guest bringing a minor “is solely responsible for the supervision of that minor.” If you choose to bring children, you are responsible for their supervision and for assessing whether this home is appropriate for your traveling party.

Guests are responsible for damage caused during their reservation in accordance with Airbnb’s policies and applicable law. Damage will be documented and pursued for reimbursement to the fullest extent permitted, including reasonable repair, restoration, qualifying professional cleaning, or replacement costs where applicable. We will not waive or absorb damage simply because it was caused accidentally by a child. The same standard applies to all guest caused damage.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
House was beautiful, well maintained and in an ideal location. Short walk to the beach where the tide can go out to about a mile. Never seen a tide go out that far. Truly breathtaking. Take time to read Sally Gunnings books. She a fine author.If we ever get back to Cape Cod this will be where we stay.
