Harwich: Walk to Long Pond, Ride to Bike Path, Golf Nearby!
Harwich, Long Pond Vacation Rental - ID 19194

We just got back from a week in Harwich staying at this lovely home. The home is centrally located between Harwich Port and Brewster and was a great home base to visit both towns, as well as Chatham, Orleans and beaches on the National Seashore. Walking distance to the bike path and Long Pond and the smaller neighborhood association pond (Hinckley's Pond) were a definite plus. We spent each morning taking long walks on the bike path. Harwich Port is great (and a short drive away) and we also visited restaurants in Harwich Center (only 1.5 miles from the house). - The Seal Pub was our favorite! The owner was incredibly responsive and replaced an air conditioner within 12 hours. She made our stay all that more welcoming. The house itself is meticulously clean and comfortable. There were four of us who stayed for the week and we easily could have fit another family, given the three beds, pull-out couch and three full baths. This was our first visit to "lower cape" and it won't be our last!

I just returned from staying a week at this rental. The house and location was everything I had expected and more. I loved being a short walk to the refreshing clear water of Long Pond. We were able to quickly access the bike trail and enjoyed several bike rides. Harwichport is a charming town and we also were close to other favorites including Orleans and Chatham. Hopping on route 6 up to National Seashore beaches was easy. The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the deck with the birds. The owner couldn't have been more accommodating and responsive to any questions. This is a perfect rental for a family.

I have visited the Cape almost every year since I was young (many , many years!). We have had mostly clean , reasonable homes but had a few not-so-nice in the past two years.
We were fortunate to find this home for our June vacation this year. The home is spacious, very clean, reasonably priced and very well equipped ....... quite perfect for our week away. It is a very short distance to a large lake(with beach) as well as the CC Bike Trail. The neighborhood was full of well-kept homes and the neighbors were all very friendly. The nights were quiet so sleeping was good.
We will come back every year to this place as long as it is available and I would highly recommend it for couples or families.

We enjoyed our stay in this comfortable and well-equipped home. The location is excellent, with just a short walk to Long Pond beaches and the rail trail. Vivian is an outstanding host. We hope to return often.

This Harwich home is in a sweet neighborhood and we met some very nice people walking in the evenings. The home is well stocked and had everything we needed-- and things are organized so it was easy to find everything!

Just a short walk to the pond and the bike path, a 25 min walk or quick bike ride to the sandy beach at Pleasant Pond--great for little ones.

The little market is a 5 minute walk for ice cream, pizza or incidentals. Several beaches are 15 minutes away. We found 2 great coffee places and there are plenty of nearby choices for dinner but the kitchen had all we needed to cook including a gas stove, oven microwave and nice fridge. There is a grill and 2 tables outside on the deck for dining. There were beach chairs, beach toys, an umbrella, etc.

We loved being able to bring our dog along and the neighborhood is dog friendly. Beds were comfortable. Laundry was great to have. Homeowner was terrific! Our family had a great time and we hope to return in the future!

Well this was our first time renting this property and I am in love! We love the small beach on Long Pond for our daily snorkeling and the bike path is just a stone throw away. Is so centrally located, you can hop onto Route 6 in just a few minutes.

We bicycled to Harwich several mornings to Ruggies for breakfast, one of my fav places.

The house is fabulous! The kitchen is so user friendly and is so well equipped I brought my inversion blender for my husbands coffee and to my surprise there was one already there. Started the day on the deck, looking over the beautiful yard where you can watch the birds and bunnies frolic while enjoying your morning coffee. The bedrooms where all very comfortable and having air conditioning was just the icing on the cake.

Can't say enough about this rental. Really loved it and plan on staying here next year.

This house is tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac just minutes from Cape Cod Rail Trail and Long Pond. The location was a convenient base to explore Cape Cod. Our family of 5 (including dog) had plenty of space to relax and unwind. The house was fully stocked and so clean. We can't wait to return next year.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Cape this year. Vivian's home was clean and very well kept. It's located on a cul de sac in a quiet and friendly neighborhood. It's only a short walk to Long Pond and the bike trail (and ice cream!) is within a 5 minute ride from the house. Everything else we like to do or visit (Kent's point, Red River Beach, downtown Chatham, Cape Cod Waterways kayak, etc) are all within a 15 minute drive. Looking forward to coming back up next year!

We have vacationed on the Cape for the past 7 years and this is by far the best house we have rented. We have stayed at this house twice, and both times, have found it to be extremely well-maintained, very comfortable, and super clean. My family of 4 and dog felt right at home and greatly appreciated all this house has to offer, including air conditioning, a well-stocked kitchen, outdoor seating and multiple TVs throughout the house. The owner, Vivian, has also been great to work with and very responsive to any questions or concerns. I cannot recommend this home enough!

Home is perfectly maintained with a flat, private, upper yard for lawn games, gleaming hardwoods, large chef's kitchen and gorgeous Master bedroom suite. The kids' room is huge, could easily accommodate a blow up bed or sleeping bags on the floor if you have more than 2. Neighbors at the end of this dead end street are friendly during the day and quiet at night. Gates to keep children and pets where they need to be.

Easy access to Long Pond by bike and the bike trail. Path to the bike trail is less than a 10 minute ride on flat back roads/paths both ways, a cinch even for our little guys. The owner was a pleasure to deal with and seemed genuinely interested in us having an enjoyable stay. We will definitely be back!!

This house was perfect for our family of 4. The rooms are spacious and comfortable and the kitchen is very well equipped. Beautiful floors and comfortable furniture. Nice deck and yard. The fact that we could bring our dog was a huge plus. By far the best feature of the house is the location on a quiet cul-de-sac just steps from Long Pond and the bike trail, both of which we used all the time. The owner was a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended!

This is a beautiful home - meticulously maintained and very clean. Location is great - nice quiet street and walking distance to pond. Photos do not do this home justice - would highly recommend and will definitely be back.

Stayed at this Cape Cod home for the week of my son's wedding. Home was immaculate when we arrived, and was just perfect for our stay. Very roomy, and decorated lovely. Loved the master bedroom and would love to have the closet in my own home! Everything you need is supplied in the home, and can't wait to visit again next year.

Very nice house. Really close to an access point on the Cape Cod Rail Trail, which we really enjoyed. Close to a cute general store with great ice cream and lots of amenities. Nice location in wonderful Harwich, yet so close to everything Brewster, Orleans, Chatham and other towns have to offer. Homeowner is very gracious and helpful…..truly cares about you having a great stay. Would definitely recommend!

This location is more of a home than a rental house and the owner has thought of everything and shows that she cares about the people who stay there. The location is perfect with the Cape Cod Rail Trail so close as well as Nickerson State Park, Cape league fields, beaches, etc. We are already penciling in our stay for next summer and for many years to come. I would recommend this property to anyone.

We really enjoyed our visit to the Cape. The house is charming and so well maintained and the location is wonderful. We enjoyed going to the lake and the easy access to the bike trails. The owner was so nice and helpful, and we hope to rent this property again!

Just returned from a great stay at this house! House was as described in the information. Clean and well kept. Nice quiet neighborhood with a short walk to private beach that the kids loved! Very close to Cape Cod Rail Trail and all amenities in Harwich. Contact with owner was great. Would definitely recommend and hope to stay there again in the future!
