Charming Cottage and Glamping Bunkhouse Steps From The Beach
Brewster Vacation Rental - ID 31348

This house is a gem! 600 steps from the Bay with incredible sunsets, swimming, and walks in the soft sand. The home is comfortable and roomy. The home accommodated our family of 5 with ease and we were able to bring our beloved dog! The homeowners were incredibly kind and helpful. Communicating with them was easy and positive. House was clean when we arrived and it is completely furnished to make for a very easy vacation!!!

My husband and I along with our Lil' Koko, our sweet terrier mix, were fortunate to stay at Carole and John's beautiful and comfortable cottage by the spectacular Brewster Bay. Any day you can walk the bay at low tide is a wonderful day, which I did almost every day during our stay. My husband, an avid swimmer, swam in the bay every day at high tide. The beach is literally steps away from the cottage. The cottage had everything we needed including a private outdoor shower, which we used exclusively. Nothing is more refreshing after a day at the beach than an outside shower. Despite Covid-19, we found the cottage and its location safe and calming. There were bunnies in the yard and a backyard patio to sip a glass of wine and watch them hopping about while reading or grilling. Nearby are a fish market, artisan pizza restaurant, taco stand, bakeries, Brewster General Store, and one of my favorite places, the Brewster Bookstore. Our daughter and her family rented the cottage after we left and returned home as we did - relaxed despite all that is going on in our world today and more than satisfied with all this enchanting cottage by the bay has to offer. In closing, I need to add that Carole and John are thoughtful and responsive owners. Thank you both - Mark and Patricia

Great house! Very comfortable and well stocked. It was very clean upon our arrival. I've had issues with pet friendly homes in the past (it can seem standards aren't as high, but that wasn't the case here). The owners were very responsive to our questions before and after arrival.

The beach was perfect for little kids. It was a very short walk away, and no dunes to trek over. We did buy the town beach pass but that was a waste of money since we never ended up wanting to drive elsewhere when the beach at the end of the street was so nice.

Our favorite restaurants nearby were Kate's, Captain Frosty's, Stone L'Oven Pizza, and Snowy Owl Coffee Roasters (where they carry Pain D'Avignon pastries).

We had a great stay, and it's a perfect location for activities and beaches. Thanks Carole and John! show more show less

Carole's home is very comfortable in a great location! Carole was very responsive during the planning and check-in process! Air conditioners made for a comfortable, relaxing environment after a hot day at the beach. We enjoyed the nice shady deck in the backyard with table, chairs and grille. Paine's Creek Beach is a very short walk down the street and is perfect for kayaking and paddle-boarding. At the other end of the street is Kate's Seafood, Luke's Liquors and Dunkin' Donuts. Pulling down the driveway, my wife and I were a little underwhelmed by the outside of the house but the inside was just what we needed! Overall this is an excellent spot close to the beach and all of Brewster's charm. show more show less

The property was a pleasant surprise and provided more room than anticipated, particularly when you first see the photos. The main area had an open design and could accommodate a good number of people inside if needed, yet having easy access to the patio area. The kitchen was well equipped with a nice coffee maker and good appliances, and a nice Weber gas grill was put to good use. AC units and fans in key locations worked well to cool the property as needed. The property can sleep 10 as advertised, but having only one full bath can slow things down with that many people (the one downside of the property). However, the outdoor shower worked well and was great to have.

Access to Paine's Creek Beach was a simple stroll away and allowed for easy access for kayaking. Beaches such as Mant's Landing were a manageable walk, or a quick drive was also an easy alternative. Also, it was great having Kate's Seafood just a short walk away, as was Dunkin and Luke's as needed. Overall, the property was a great choice for a week long rental and it was nice to be off the "beaten path" off of 6A. show more show less

The home was extremely clean and comfortable. The home has several skylights that offer a ton of natural light, the carpeting was clean (not damp like other rentals). If your a coffee lover, you will appreciated their special coffee maker. Bring your favorite fresh ground beans and enjoy. The kitchen was well appointed and easy to prepare meals with plenty of space to move about without feeling crowded. We enjoyed the short walk (less than 5 min) to the bayside beach to enjoy the majestic sunsets. This is a home you will want to return to on your next vacation. show more show less
