Lovely home 3 mins to beach, w/screened porch
Eastham Vacation Rental - ID 32466

We've been coming to the Cape for twenty years and this is the first home we felt truly comfortable in. It was very clean and inviting and the screened in porch was the icing on the cake! Can't wait to come back!

Dear Joel and Lori,

Thank you so much for providing such a lovely base of operations for our stay on the cape. Your "happy place" is appropriately named. We loved everything about it -- the comfy bed and especially the screened-in porch. We ate most of our meals there. Your location is superb. We travelled out to Provincetown and down to Hyannisport and Chatham. We returned in time to enjoy dinners at home and then get to the beach for spectacular sunsets.

"Lovely house exceeded our expectations. The pics are accurate but you never know if you"re getting what you think. The house was spotless, perhaps brand new or newly renovated, not sure, but clearly has not been used a lot as I think we were the first people to use the coffee machine. We have found some Cape rentals to be run down and a little musty. Not at all the case here. Sheets and towels were provided (not always true on the Cape) and were nice quality and clean. The owners take great care in keeping the home lovely—i.e. they request no shoes in the house and provide makeup wipes so no one stains the towels. We appreciated the care and would definitely rather comply with rules than be in a dirty house! The kitchen was very well stocked—lobster pot, gas grill, all you need to make meals, all the comforts of home (salad spinner!) and nice touches like a bottle of wine waiting for us. The location is excellent. About a mile to bay beaches (sunsets are incredible), so fifteen minute walk or five minute bike ride. The Cape Cod Rail Trail (bikes) is across route six, about a five minute ride. Nauset Light Beach is super close and Marconi is not far either. Quiet neighborhood with simple and lovely homes. Great layout...we were a couple with our adult daughters (and their boyfriends part of the time.) We had main floor bedroom with en suite bath and the girls were upstairs in two other bedrooms with a shared hall bath. Lots of closet space etc. Nice, clean, new furnishings. Tasteful and lovely. The best part was the screen porch where we ate all our home meals. Books and games provided too! And great outdoor shower with hot water and great pressure! Lori and Joel were gracious hosts and very communicative. Low stress on all levels. We had one minor malfunction in the house (no one"s fault) and they had it fixed within a few hours. HIGHLY recommend this home and will hopefully go back there soon"

Dear Lori and Joel,

Our entire family had a wonderful week on the cape. Cycle rides, donuts at "hole in one", clamming in salt pond, swimming at Wiley Park and enjoying the beautiful beaches. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely home. It was perfect!

We loved to stay at Lori & Joel"s home. We come to the Cape every year since many years, used to stay at a hotel but this home was by far superior. Amazing stay and experience. The house was super clean. We loved the outdoor shower, what a treat after the beach.

Beautiful home and perfect location! We were five minutes from Coast Guard Beach and ten minutes from Orleans. The house is peaceful, clean, beautifully updated with a great screened in porch area (our favorite eating spot). The hosts were warm and welcoming for our vacation and accessible. Would definitely stay here again!
Thanks again!

Our vacation at 2850 Herring Brook Rd was perfect in every way. The setting resembles an English country garden bordered by English ivy and filled with a variety of hydrangeas and roses. We particularly enjoyed the screened in porch where we ate all of our meals and hung out in the evenings. The house is sunny and bright with an open floor plan which was great for our family. The kitchen is fully equipped and has lots of counter space for prepping and serving. The location was really close to many bay and oceanside beaches plus the bike trail. The spacious outdoor shower was a plus. We plan to rent the house again soon!

The house is sparkling clean and beautifully decorated with spacious bedrooms and air conditioning for hot nights. We spent almost all of our time on the screened in porch when we were not biking on the nearby bike path, frolicking on the ocean and bay beaches or kayaking form the town landing. The guest book listed lots of resources for outdoor activities and dining. The yard had lots of space for our kids to play and they especially loved the outdoor shower! We love to cook and the kitchen had everything we needed. The location was central to everything and an easy drive to Wellfleet, Truro and P town. Can’t wait to return next summer. show more show less
