Lil Rose
THESE ROSES
These roses under my window make no reference to former roses or to better ones; they for what they are; they exist with God today. There is no time to them. There is simply the rose; it is perfect in every moment of its existence. Before a leaf -bud has burst, its whole life acts; in the full- blown flower there is no more, in the leafless root there is no less. Its nature is satisfied and it satisfies nature in all moments alike.
But we postpone or remember. We do not live in the present, but with reverted eye lament the past, or, heedless of the riches that surround us, stand on tiptoe to foresee the future. We cannot be happy or strong until we too live with nature in the present, above time. – Emerson
Lil Rose was once a small horse stable. The cottage now consists of a large room divided to provide a smaller room that houses a twin bed, and a cottage annex (8×10) providing a private separate bedroom. There is a stereo, TV and DVD player, wi-fi, and lots of windows on the surrounding foliage. There is a wonderful wood burning fireplace (wood is supplied) enhancing the off-season ambience!
Lil Rose works well for a maximum of a couple with two children, or an occasional guest who is more or less “family.” There is a queen size bed, a full (in the annex) and a twin available for guests. There is an inside shower room and a bathroom in Lil Rose.
An outside terrace features deck chairs, a picnic table, a charcoal grill, a very private outdoor shower, and a permanent outdoor fire pit. Although a dune blocks Lil Rose from having a bay view, you can hear the surf at night and a private path puts you at the top of the dune in less than a minute. Our private bay beach, reached by dedicated stairs, never has more than three people on it and features a beautiful across-the-bay view of Provincetown and Long Point.
The cottage is fully insulated; the interior has been finished in 18th century barn-board painted white, and is fully heated and winterized. It is very comfortable year-round. All linens, towels, duvets, blankets, beach towels and beach chairs are supplied.
Sleeps: 5 with 3 in the main cottage (1 queen + 1 twin), 2 in the annex (1 full)
