We’re Jeremy and Chris. Two events professionals who started trading WDC for Provincetown back in 2009. Our pursuit of sunshine, one-of-a-kind beaches and a bit of revelry brought us to one of the most beautiful places on earth.
Through our work and travel, we’ve become obsessed with the art of hospitality. So we set out to create spaces for others to experience quality design with functional comfort that’s rooted in a local narrative.
We believe in the profound influence of travel and through Fellow Nomads, we aim to tell an authentic story that brings meaning to your own journey.

We’ve put together a Ptown Guide with our favorite spots for coffee, cocktails, beaches, bites, and everything in between. It’s a mix of local classics and hidden gems — the kind of places we actually go ourselves. Whether you’re here to unwind, explore, or dance until midnight, this guide will help you do it like a local (or at least feel like one).
Arrival
-
One of Provincetown’s many charms is its place at the very tip of Cap Cod… An escape at the edge of the world. As a result, traveling in and out of Provincetown may include a variety of modes – planes, trains, automobiles, buses, and/or ferries.
Ptown is approximately two hours from Boston by car and less than 30 minutes by air.
BY FERRY
Two ferry companies offer seasonal service from Boston with high-speed options that cut your commute to 90 minutes. Ferry service is also available between Plymouth, MA and Provincetown.
BY AIR
Cape Air service from Boston is a quick, 20-minute scenic trip with fantastic views of Boston and Cape Cod. Cape Air offers fast, frequent, seasonal flights between Provincetown and Boston, and Provincetown and New York. You can book Cape Air directly through their site or via JetBlue.
Provincetown Airport is located on Race Point Road and minutes from town.
BY BUS
Peter Pan Bus Company has regular, year-round bus service between Provincetown (MacMillan Pier), Hyannis (Transportation Center), Boston South Station, and Boston Logan Airport.
For schedules and tickets, visit PeterPanBus.com.

The Salty Dorothy is part of a multi-family complex that consists of a main house (Salty Dorothy) with one rental unit and a freestanding cottage (Dot's Cottage) in the rear. The main house and cottage share a driveway and walkway as well as the trash/recycling containers.
The Salty Dorothy and Dot's Cottage can also be rented together for a total of 4 bedrooms and 8 people.
-
Check-in is at 3:00PM.
Please let us know what your estimated time of arrival will be.
Once you arrive, take a moment to check the home for cleanliness and that everything is in good condition. If something doesn’t seem right, please report it to us in a message within 12 hours of your arrival.
-
Onsite Parking
Free parking is available for one vehicle. Our driveway works best for compact to standard-sized vehicles…think Mazda CX-5 or smaller. It has a tight turn off of the street, so larger vehicles may have trouble maneuvering. If your vehicle doesn’t fit, you’ll need to find alternative parking, and we can’t be held responsible.
Please note that parking is in tandem with another spot in our driveway. During your stay, it's possible that you may need to coordinate with other property guests to move your car in or out of the driveway.
Offsite Parking
The Town of Provincetown enforces metered parking from April 1 - October 31, 7 days per week, from 8 am-Midnight.
Parking is free in town lots and metered spaces from November 1 - March 31.
The closest town lot (6 min walk) is the Grace Hall Lot, located at Prince and Bradford Streets. Open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. From April 1 - October 31 the cost is $3 per hour, $30 maximum per 24 hours.
MacMillian Pier Parking lot (15 min walk) is located in the center of town. Open 24 hours a day from April 1 - October 31, 7 days a week, $4 per hour, $40 maximum per 24 hours.
There are also privately run parking lots, not affiliated with the town, all along Bradford Street. Parking rules and rates vary.

Address: 4 Carver Street (Unit B), Provincetown, MA 02657
The entrance to Unit B is located on the driveway at the side of the house. The front door of the house leads to a different unit and is not accessible for Unit B.
The door is equipped with a black Yale keyless touchpad lock. Your personal door code will be sent to you on the morning of your arrival.
To operate the lock, press anywhere on the keypad to wake the lock; the keypad will illuminate. Enter your code followed by the checkmark button to unlock. To lock, shut the door to latch and then touch the Yale logo.
house
-
Trash and recycling containers are located in the kitchen. When they’re full, please empty them into the outdoor bins behind the main house. To find them, follow the brick walkway past the fire pit and around the corner beyond the cottage… the bins will be on your right just after the cottage.
Additional trashbags are located under the kitchen sink.
Recycling should be loose and not placed in bags.
-
Quiet hours are from 10pm - 8am.
Please be respectful of our neighbors at all times. Being part of a multi-family property in the center of Provincetown, it's important to be mindful of noise levels to ensure a harmonious experience for all neighbors.
Also, please be aware that noise from town travels throughout the neighborhood and it’s difficult for us to control any noise from our neighbors.
-
During the warmer months, each room at the Salty Dorothy has its own window air-conditioning unit. When the units are running, please keep all windows and doors closed to help them work efficiently. We also ask that you turn them off whenever you head out — it helps conserve energy and keeps our little slice of Provincetown a bit greener.
When the weather turns cooler, the house is heated by a baseboard radiator system. The thermostat for your unit is located on the wall in the living room, just outside the king bedroom. To use it, switch the unit on and slowly raise the temperature to your comfort. The system runs a little hotter than average, so start low and adjust gradually. The thermostat controls all rooms in your unit.
-
Each guest at the Salty Dorothy is provided with one bath towel, one hand towel, and one washcloth (up to four guests). You’ll also find dark grey, bleach-safe makeup towels — please use those for removing makeup or skincare products.
During the warmer months, we also provide one beach towel per guest.
We ask that you treat all towels and linens with care. Makeup, face treatments, and tanning products can permanently stain fabrics, so please avoid using our white towels with any skin products. White bath towels are for indoor use only, and we kindly ask that you don’t attempt to wash stained items — we’ll take care of laundering everything after your stay.

How to Use the Fire Pit
Remove the rain cover from the fire pit and set it aside.
Locate the black gas tank enclosure—it’s behind the lounger to the left.
Open the lid and turn the gas knob to the left to open the gas supply.
At the base of the fire pit, find the ignition knob.
Push it in while turning it slowly to the right.
You should hear a clicking sound—keep turning until the flame ignites.
Once lit, adjust the flame level using the same knob.
When finished, turn the ignition knob all the way off (left) and close the gas tank valve.
Let the fire pit cool completely before replacing the rain cover.
Safety
Never leave the fire pit unattended while lit.
Keep children, pets, and anything flammable a safe distance away.
Do not move or cover the fire pit until it’s fully cool.
Avoid using the fire pit during high winds.
Please do not roast marshmallows or cook food over the gas flame—trust us, it’s not that kind of fire.
If you smell gas or the flame goes out unexpectedly, turn everything off immediately and wait a few minutes before relighting.
-
A bike rack is located behind the main house… just follow the brick walkway past the cottage to the end and look to your left to find the rack.
Please remember to lock your bikes securely. While we love seeing guests explore Provincetown on two wheels, we can’t be responsible for any loss or damage to bicycles or related equipment.
-
At this time we do not have laundry facilities available for guests. We hope to provide this service soon!
-
Water is a precious resource, please conserve it! Please do not dispose of foreign objects or personal hygiene products in the toilet.
-
During the warmer season, two beach towels are provided in the bedrooms. Chairs & umbrellas will be provided in the outside storage shed. Please shake off / wipe down any sand before returning items to the shed. Do not use bath towels outside the house.
-
Although we love furry friends, pets or animals of any kind are not permitted in the house at anytime.
-
If you encounter any maintenance issues during your stay, please text us and we will work to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. We have a maintenance team available to help.
-
In case you need them, user manuals for all appliances and electronics are in the bottom kitchen cabinet next to the trash.

The Samsung TV comes loaded with apps for your favorite streaming services. Simply choose the app you’d like to use and login with your own credentials for streaming.
We do provide access to Youtube TV for live channel viewing. Please see the next item below.
You can also cast to the TV from your own devices.

To watch live tv channels we have provided access to YouTube TV. To watch, turn the tv on and once on the Samsung home screen scroll down to find the YouTube TV App. Click on the app and when prompted choose the account icon with a fish that says “Lost”. You will then be taken to the homescreen of YouTube TV where you can select “live” at the top of the screen to view the guide.
Occasionally the Samsung tv will ask you to login to the Samsung account when trying to open the YouTube TV App. If that happens, simply choose the account that says “Jeremy” and it will take you back to open the YouTube TV App.
-
You’ll find one Sonos speaker in the living room and another in the kitchen.
To play music, connect to the Wi-Fi network and download the Sonos app on your device. Open the app and connect to our existing Sonos system. Once connected, you can play music from your own streaming services through the app.
Before you head out, make sure to sign out of the system.
-
To play a record, place it on the turntable before powering on. Gently lift the tonearm and set it on the outer edge of the record. The Sonos speaker in the living room will automatically detect and play the audio — if it doesn’t, select “Line-In” in the Sonos app.
Please handle the vinyl with care to avoid scratches, and return each record to its jacket after use. A replacement fee of $35 per record will apply for any missing or damaged vinyl.
Safety
-
The fire extinguisher is located under the kitchen sink.
-
There are devices that detect both smoke and carbon monoxide located in each of the bedrooms and one in the living area just outside of the kitchen.
-
Please dial 911 in the case of an emergency.
