Beautiful Private Beachfront Getaway
East Sandwich Vacation Rental - ID 25169

This house was incredible and so perfect for our family vacation! The house was exactly as described (even better in person). Fully stocked it was the perfect home away from home and cannot forget that it is just steps away from the beach! The owners are amazing and incredibly thoughtful. They were available if we needed them and checked in to make sure we didn't need anything (plus left the most thoughtful welcoming gift). We will definitely be returning!

Dear Cathy and Mike,
Thank you so much for a home-away-from-home vacation. From the moment we walked in to gluten free treats and bags to head to the beach with, we have felt welcomed and genuinely as though we could relax and enjoy our time on the Cape. Thank you so much for opening your lovely cottage to our family!
Sincerely, The B's. Georgia

Hi Cathy & Mike - Sue and I had another fabulous vacation at your lovely cottage right on the beach. As soon as we closed the gate to the driveway and headed to the cottage, we were both so excited to be "home" again!
Your reliable attention to detail, the way the cottage is decorated, the beach right outside the door, truly make this a magical place. We stayed at another house last year when your cottage was not available, and prior to finding you, had stayed elsewhere on the Cape Cod Bay, but NOTHING compares to your little jewel box. First, feet in the sand. Then, when we opened the door, to see the birthday celebration stuff you left for us - the cake was our nighttime snack and that first night we lit the candles and sang to ourselves...Glad there was no one nearby...so incredibly thoughtful, always, thank you, Cathy.

This year, we walked 10,000 steps on the beach everyday...loving watching the antics of the seagulls, roll of the ocean coming to shore and just the pure peace and quiet. All of our favorite foodie places were available this year - having survived the pandemic and able to make it another year - Chew (breakfast and lunch), Moto Pizza, the ice cream place on the hill on 6A, Amari's. We also used your well-appointed kitchen to make some evening goodies with our cocktail and also to make some scrumptious salads.
As usual, we did more than we needed to of shopping! We love to shop up here for Christmas. Sara Campbell has become a bad habit:)

The most important part of our trip was staying at your place. Relaxing on the beach and just snuggling into your most comfortable couches to read a book or two are always the cherry on the cake. Oh, and sleeping in your dreamy comfy beds and linens - remarkable.

I cannot remember how many vacations we have spent with you - I think at least 5...no surprise, this is "the" place for us (and we are nice, but picky)!

Both of you keep well and have a wonderful fall and winter and we will see you next year.

We had a wonderful, relaxing time at this lovely beach cottage! Cathy is an absolute pleasure to work with and the house has everything you need! We are looking forward to returning next year!

Cathy,
thank you for sharing this beautiful and magical cottage with our family. We made many memories with our kids collecting rocks, swimming, playing a ton of games and of course watching the spectacular sunsets. Your hospitality was amazing. Thanks again, The Z's.

Cathy,

Many thanks for your incredible hospitality and kindness as our host. These two weeks have been magical for our family of 3. We can't thank you enough for all you have done to ensure our stay in the cottage was just perfect. We will leave having made lasting family memories because our time here was just so special. Thank you, again. Fondly, The W's.

My family and I have been lucky enough to rent this home a few times, and it never disappoints! The convenience of being right on the beach, coupled with the privacy this home affords is unlike any other home we have rented in the 10+ years we have been vacationing on the cape. We rent this home with another couple and their young son, and feel it is the perfect way to vacation at the beach with kids - no schlepping chairs and toys! The house is very well-stocked with beach towels, chairs, and even toys to keep the kids busy and excited. And the on-site laundry makes it so easy to keep up with the amount of laundry that can be generated from daily trips to the beach!
But perhaps the main reason we keep returning to this property are the amazing owners, Cathy and Michael. They are so friendly, helpful and generous with their guests. Cathy takes the time to personally be on-site each week to turn the house over and make it welcoming and inviting to the incoming guests. She is extremely responsive and genuinely wants to make your stay as enjoyable and comfortable as possible. Truly and A+ rental experience. We will be back again next year and can't wait!

This was our third trip to this cottage and it gets better every year! I am a snob about linens and décor and I fell in love with this place our first year - it is impeccable, designed with the comfort of the guests in mind in every way and now feels like we are "coming home" each time we step inside!

Cathy has a way of knowing just what you will want and need - crisp linens, fabulous towels, beach equipment and towels, the TV with premium channel, everything clean, clean, clean, etc. etc. etc.

This little piece of calm was just what we needed for a break from this crazy world this year...We opened the door and were greeted with a bouquet of balloons for our joint birthdays, tote bags, amazing cupcakes which we limited to one each per day, and the wonderful sound of NOTHING! After unpacking, we took a long walk on the beach, right outside our door...love doing this at the start of the day with coffee in hand and at sunset with wine in hand!

The kitchen is easy to use with everything you will need and we did cook a few meals this year because we were staying safe re restaurant visits. We also found it easy to eat outside at most of our favorite haunts - especially Chew Café in Sandwich - perfect breakfasts and lunches and take out. We also ate on the porch at Scargo Café in Dennis a couple of times - very special meal always and worth the trip.

We usually do a lot of holiday shopping and this year was no different...and since this is "hard work" at the end of the day we were happy to return to this little peaceful enclave, walk the beach, and watch a couple of good movies and turn in early for a restful night listening to the sound of the waves.

We have rented many homes in Maine, on the Cape, in Connecticut, Upstate NY, at the Jersey Shore - and, well, you get the picture...NONE of them is as welcoming and well-appointed as this cottage by the sea. We will always return year after year and if you are planning a vacation, this should be top of your list!

Thanks, Cathy, for another stellar memory! See you in September...
Ellen and Sue

Another amazing and magical stay!
We love coming to this oceanfront cottage every summer! It's beautifully decorated and is very spacious, comfy, peaceful, private and very clean!  It's an incredible location with the beach at the back door! 

Don't pack much since everything you need is already at the cottage for a wonderful time. Plan to just chill out on the beach and relax in the sun to the sound of the waves and the smell of the sea salt air. On clear nights you can gaze at the stars and see the lights of Ptown and occasionally see some fabulous fireworks up and down the beach. We've been coming here for years and we'll be back again next summer as this is the highlight of our travels! The homeowners are always a great pleasure to work with making sure our stay is exceptional too! 

Cathy-
The cottage is awesome...so comfortable! Thank you so much for the extra touches you left for us. The kids enjoyed playing with the tea set. Love the balloons. Also, thank you for the special surprise in the fridge! The cupcakes were delicious - we celebrated with a beach fire at sunset. We had a wonderful week filled with great memories. Thank you for sharing your beach house with us.

We just returned from a week vacation at this home. House is very comfortable and offers a lot of perks. Having all the beds made and bathrooms stocked with good quality towels and toilet paper was just the beginning of what this house can offer to you and your family. Every detail is thought of - kitchen is fully stocked- shed is packed with great beach chairs and toys for every age. Outdoor shower was a big hit with our family- especially the kids! Having the beach right outside the door was truly the highlight of the week- early AM set up -comfort to come and go and ending with watching the sunsets at the close of the day allowed you to fully appreciate your surroundings!

My family and I just returned from our Sandwich Beach house vacation - it was everything we could have hoped for and more! This house is so well appointed, and the owners have thought of everything to make sure their guests are happy! I have two small kids and it was great for them - there are two twin beds built into the walls of the upstairs bedrooms - my boys loved them! They called them their "secret bunkers"! There is also a king and a queen sized guest beds!

The rooms are all spacious and comfortable and the bathrooms are clean and obviously recently renovated. They supplied all of the beach essentials and toys we could have needed! We really only needed to bring clothes for our vacation! The beach, while it is a little rocky (which could just be this year), was deep and very private! Not to mention gorgeous!! In our current covid world it couldn't have been more ideal!! Lots of room for my boys to play in the sand and surf far away from people. We look forward to returning to this Sandwich Beach house!!

Staying at Cathy & Mike's cottage in Sandwich was the best decision we made! After a long spring, it was everything we could have asked for. Having two small children, being on the beach was perfect, we were able to go to the beach for 2 hours without loading up a car full of stuff, hunting for parking... instead we grabbed towels and walked down the stairs to the beach! We caught an amazing sunset every night and a beautiful sunrise on the day of our departure.

Cathy & Mike are amazing owners, they address all of your concerns or questions in a timely manner. They are great to work with. They even left a little welcome gift for us and our children!! The cottage is private, beautifully decorated and felt just like home. We look forward to renting again!

This 3 bedroom cottage is a real gem. Tons of character while also light, bright and updated. It is so nice to walk down the stairs to your own private beach. The home owners take pride in keeping the cottage extremely clean and well maintained. Linens and towels are included if you choose - which is very convenient. Beach towels and chairs are available to use as well. The beach is very private, nice clean bay water; you will need some water shoes though as you approach the water the sand turns a bit more rocky. We had a relaxing and wonderful stay. Cathy is very responsive to all your questions or needs. This was our first stay but definitely thinking of coming back next summer.

Cathy,
we had such a great time ! You have a beautiful place ! Thanks again for everything !

Cathy -
as Sue and I each head home we are refreshed, relaxed and so very grateful to once again have a fabulous stay in your impeccable beach house.
We love the Cape, Sandwich in particular and your home is the best part always.
Peace, salt air, amazing beach walks, breezy nights walking on the sand, comfy sofas to read a book, and the quiet of stillness, mindfulness! Much needed and so grateful for your generosity and this beautiful oasis you have created.
Best for a wonderful winter!
Ellen & Sue (NJ &CT)

Such a delightful week—from the scrumptious weather to the comfortable cottage. Linens top quality— no surprise given how every inch of the Karl's home is just that - QUALITY! Listening to the waves crash against the shore, smelling the salt air, and relishing sunrises...what more could one ask for?! Thank you for a spectacular experience! Gisele

Hello Cathy and Mike,
WOW! This home is Fantastic. I can't even begin to tell you how very grateful we are to enjoy your slice of heaven. We immediately felt like we were somewhere very special. In fact, we are planning to spend next 4th of July here if it's still available. Our boys absolutely fell in love with your hot outdoor shower! You are both very kind for sharing your home, even if just for a week!
Thank you so very much!

Perfect Cape Cod home—the house was casual and comfortably appointed. Everything was organized in the well stocked kitchen, beach chairs and towels were provided and the beds were comfortable. Having a private beach with a speculator view was the piece de resistance. The hosts, Cathy and Mike handled the booking process professionally and it was a pleasure working with them.

"Cathy-
Thank you again for being a fantastic host! We had a lovely week at your beautiful beach home - tornado warning and all!
Thank you for the totes and pails for the kids. You are so thoughtful!
We hope to be back next summer for year # 3 ! " (from guest notebook)

Dear Cathy,
My family and I want to thank you for making your beautiful Cape Cod home available to us. After staying in many cottages over the years, yours was by far the most private and comfortable.

We loved the spaciousness, the comfy furniture and the attention to every detail. It was so nice to arrive to clean sheets on the bed!!! We three generations had plenty of room to sit and talk, play games or have a meal from your well equipped kitchen. You thought of everything!!! The beach was beautiful too and oh, those sunsets!!!!!!
One couldn't ask for a better, true Cape Cod experience.

Thanks again.
Sincerely,
Barb

P.S.The sand buckets, bubbles and totes were also greatly appreciated!!!

Cathy...As you know, Sue and I have been renting on the beach in East Sandwich for years - we just love the area. This year, having our own businesses, we could not do a vacation until after the main season. The moment we drove through your gate, we felt the stress leave...We loved the seclusion and felt like we were on an adventure!

We opened the cottage door and were met by the most beautiful and thoughtful bouquet of balloons attached to shopping bags with totes for each of us in celebration of our birthdays - 9/22 and 9/23. We knew we were "home"!

This cottage is beautifully decorated and has been so well cared for that this is the first time I felt that I did not have to use my own linens. The beds and the furniture are so comfortable, we did not mind the occasional rainy weather outside.

The kitchen has all the cooking stuff you could ever need and spices, and paper goods as well - same for the wonderful bathrooms! I loved the ocean views from my bed upstairs each night and listening to the gentle roll of the waves as I went off to ZZZZZ land.

We also felt so well taken care of - occasional calls from you to make certain we had everything we needed were again, so thoughtful.

This house has tons of things to do - kayaks, beach chairs and lounges, outdoor tables and patio furniture...and the most splendid private beach.

If you are looking for the BEST beach rental EVER - this is it!!!!

Four of us stayed at this most amazing cottage! First, the owners are a complete delight and take pride in their home. It was impeccably clean, warm and welcoming! We have all stayed at other rentals-this was by far the best experience we have had. The details and essentials provided in the home left us needing only our clothes! The fact that a private beach was our backyard added icing on to this already delicious cake. Cathy, the owner could not have been more accommodating and kind with us! We all received these great Cape Cod canvas beach bags as a thank you! We all felt like we were home away from home! There was a shopping area, mini-golf and great restaurants all within a very short distance from the cottage. We had a lovely time and would definitely make return trips to this fabulous cottage!! Thank you, Cathy!!

My husband and I (and our kids) rented this house with two of our friends for our annual Cape week. We normally stay in Hyannis, but wanted to find a place directly on the beach to make things easier with the kids (ages 4 and 6). It was the perfect combination of private waterfront home, and quintessential Cape Cod vacation! For a few days my mom joined us, so we had five adults and two children staying in the house, and there was plenty of room. It was beautifully decorated, incredibly well-equipped, and clean. Just all-around wonderful.
Most importantly, the owners were fantastic. Cathy immediately began sending me information about things to do in the area, info on the house, even ideas for kids while we were there! She was a superb host. The house has quite literally everything you could need. You don't need to bring any beach chairs, toys, towels, etc. We way over-packed for this house!! It's newly renovated and absolutely adorable. Fantastic value and experience all around. We were all very pleased. We definitely plan on returning!!

BRAVO ! Loved it !!! :) John, Joanne, Katy, Franko (from guest notebook)

We all agreed that this is definitely a repeat rental for us. It is a beautiful cottage on the beach with so many included items. It was so nice not having to bring beach chairs, linens, towels, toys, games, etc. You even had kayaks for us to use. We really enjoyed them. We had a great time!!
Thank you!

You could not book a more well appointed Cape Cod Cottage! From every beach necessity you could imagine to everything a kitchen could need to a wide array of board games, this cottage has all the essentials for a memorable Cape Cod Vacation!

This cottage has it all waiting for you! All the supplies you wish every home rental would have, so you don't have to bring it. Beach chairs & towels, all kitchen supplies, all linens (!), Wifi, secluded beach... Comfortably furnished, great appliances, first floor washer and dryer. Back patio and grill were great for hanging out, beautiful sunsets from the boardwalk every night!

We had the most amazing time at this beach house. The listing and photos are accurate but cannot come close to being there. The house was decorated nicely, beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. Anything we needed was already there. We are definitely hoping to return. Cathy thought of everything and was amazing to work with.

Hi Cathy-

Thank you for sharing your really lovely cozy cottage. We loved every minute of our time there.

We spent a fantastic long weekend with friends at Cathy and Karl's beach cottage. Yearly road trip. 6.5 hours from Montréal. The house is superbly located, right on the beach, as evidenced from the pictures, but also only 25 minutes from Hyannis Port and 40 minutes from the Woods Hole ferry to Martha's Vineyard. So, very central. The house itself is very clean, comfortable and cozy (can easily sleep 6 adults and 2 children). Cape Cod style and colours get you in a vacation mood instantly, from the moment you walk in. Lots of amenities. There is everything you need in the kitchen, including a wide selection of dry spices should you choose to cook, which we did. We also used the gas BBQ. We lit a couple of bonfires right on the beach at sunset, sipping wine, watching waves breaking on the beach. Fond memories.

Dealing with the home owners was a delight. Frequent communications prior to and during rental period. They were very caring. Clear answers to questions we had and helpful all the way through. Overall, great place, beautiful house, great service. I recommend this location 100%.

If possible, the pictures posted on the listing don't do this fantastic house justice. This is a well-maintained, modern cottage, and Cathy is a very responsive owner who helped us navigate any quirks about the house that we couldn't figure out for ourselves. We had five people staying here very comfortably, including my parents and our toddler.

The location is very private, and we had the beach to ourselves without another person in shouting distance on most days. We had exactly the vacation we were hoping for when we booked.

We loved our vacation at Cathy & Mike's cottage! My husband and I, along with our toddler, stayed here for a week in August 2017 and had a blast. The house is beautiful and you can't beat the location - steps from your own private beach. Cathy is extremely thoughtful and diligent (for example, I randomly mentioned we typically bring a blow up pool for our toddler for the beach and she bought a 50 foot hose so that it reaches the beach! So extremely sweet.) The house is very private and quiet and we enjoyed full relaxation. The beach is lovely - it was rocky when we were there (a few storms came through in early Spring) so I'd recommend bringing water shoes. The water was crystal clear at high tide!

This is a beautiful location and the owners really are fantastic. Highly recommend, especially for families.

My family of four were fortunate to spend a week in August at Cathy's beachfront home. Cathy is a pleasure to deal with, from the very first inquiry I sent all the way through questions sent during our vacation. She was quick to respond and provided many tips for ensuring our vacation was incredibly enjoyable.

The home looks exactly like it does in the photos, very clean and charming. The beds are ultra comfortable. There are plenty of towels, and the home is fully stocked with all the kitchen equipment, plates, etc., you would need.

I recommend bringing beach shoes as others have indicated (and Cathy also recommended) as the beach can be rocky. It didn't stop us from enjoying the beach and the water. In fact the beach was very private, very few people were there during our week in August. The town of Sandwich is lovely, everyone is friendly and there are plenty of cute restaurants to enjoy both in Sandwich and all along the Cape.

You won't be disappointed with this rental! Thank you, Cathy and Mike!!

"Thank you! Your cottage is beautiful! The cleanest, best decorated & well equipped cottage we have ever rented. We tried the ferry to Nantucket -- great place! Beautiful & lots to do. Locally we enjoyed Seafood Sams, Ice Cream Sandwich & shopping at Cuffys. The week went too fast! The beach bags were greatly appreciated :)"

This is our third time back to this perfect cottage, and each time we return we feel like we are at our home away from home. The owner always adds some special touches, this year a new dishwasher and lovely sleeping alcoves in the bedrooms. The house has everything you need for relaxing, cooking, and enjoying your vacation. But the best part is the private beach, just steps away, where you can enjoy nightly bonfires. Heavenly!

Everything is great! We love the house. And thank you for the beach bags!!
We just left. Thank you very much for everything. The stay was wonderful!

This beautiful, clean and bright beach house was perfect for our family. Two bedrooms upstairs were more than enough room for my husband and I with our two kids (ages 3 and 5) while my very active parents enjoyed the master bedroom downstairs (with its own bathroom and epic shower).

The back patio is private and has latched gates so the kids could be out there playing (waiting for us to walk down the stairs to the beach...) while we were inside.

It was a really great stay. We had one random appliance issue and the homeowner was very attentive in helping us resolve it. She was helpful and easy to communicate with, followed up to make sure everything was continuing to work fine after issue was resolved.

We had a beach fire almost every night. Neighbors were friendly. We met the homeowners on our last day on our way out. Wonderful people.

It was a fantastic stay, perfect fit for our family, and I would absolutely recommend vacationing here.

Cathy,
Thanks! We had a great time!

This is a terrific place to stay whilst visiting Cape Cod. The property is full of character, very comfortable and well-equipped, with the owners having clearly thought through everything a guest may need. The best part though has to be the location - right on the beach. It's a privilege to be literally a few steps to your own section of paradise. The beach is huge, has lovely views and yet is almost deserted. We loved walking for miles in such a tranquil setting, kayaking, swimming, watching the sun go down, having BBQs...

As we own a holiday cottage complex in Somerset, England, we are probably rather picky - and we would pick this cottage again and again. Ann was very helpful, with lots of advice for us Brits! We loved going to Ice Cream Sandwich, the Fisherman's View Restaurant, whale-watching from P'town but above all just relaxing here. We looked at loads of properties before choosing this Oceanfront cottage - you don't need to look any further than here!

Thank you both for sharing your cottage. We had a wonderful week! Thanks again! (Text from last day)

Anything and everything you need is in this beach house! Clean, comfy, and well equipped from inside out. The owners are very responsive and helpful, emailing us links, ideas, and activities for our kids in the area! Steps bring you right onto a private beach for days of complete relaxation and enjoyment! Great beach and house for families!

Thank you for the pie, jelly and allowing us to share your home for a week. We were not sure what to expect from the house to the town and surrounding areas but in the end we were pleasantly surprised. The kayaks were fun...it was the first time for us to ever use them. The cottage was lovely inside and out. We loved how private it was, especially on the beach. The traffic was the worst part but the friendliness of everyone made up for that! We went to local shops/galleries and purchased a few pieces to bring a little of the Cape back to our homes. We can't believe it's over already but we did enjoy ourselves.
Thanks again (From email)

This is our second stay at this beautiful home and we are already planning our return! We have found it provides the perfect combination of privacy and a natural setting, yet is close to everything we needed. The owner is great to work with, and has everything so well organized and labeled, with helpful information all collected in a binder. We especially loved the well-equipped kitchen with a brand new oven/stove this year. The owner has meticulously stocked the kitchen with every spice and utensil that one could want (including a pizza peel we used for delicious grilled pizza). We also loved having cook fires right on our own private beach. The kayaks (brand new this year) kept our teenage children busy, and they loved being able to jump in the water whenever they liked. The owner is constantly adding new touches and has thought of everything to make your vacation relaxing. We can't wait to come back to this true treasure, simply the best place on the Cape!

We have stayed here before and love it. This house is beautiful inside and out! We love renting this house. It couldn't be more perfect! Thank you, Cathy, for everything!!

Hi - Our pleasure! We had a fabulous time. You've really thought of every convenience and made the home very welcoming, enjoyable and most importantly easy! Thanks again. (From Email)

We stayed (and reviewed) this cottage last year, but I wanted to update our review. We were so pleased when we arrived this year to return to this beautifully decorated cottage. Every room is so beautifully and professionally decorated, and the owners have given so much thought to the premises. Everything you possibly could want is included in the kitchen, and I noted they had upgraded the oven/range with a lovely new glass top appliance. We love to cook, and enjoyed both the kitchen and a nice little grill on the patio.

Additionally, they had made many other improvements to an already wonderful property. In addition to a canoe, they now have a kayak available, and new steps have been built down to the beach. They also have a nice gas fire pit available this year. My daughter and her husband noted there were many new board games and enjoyed several epic scrabble matches.

But, amenities aside, the best part for me was the total peace and quiet. Bird song, the nature sounds of waves and wind off the bay were so restful. Yet, for those who want to go and do, the location is close to almost everywhere on the Cape.

For those who may follow us, be sure to visit Heritage Gardens and see the extensive antique car collection. We picnicked and enjoyed the gardens, car collection, and carousel, and this year they have an exhibit of movie costumes on display.

I sure hope the Vacation Gods will be kind to us, and allow us to return once more to Sandwich, and to this marvelous cottage on the shore!

We had a lovely time at your cottage! It is lovely!
Thank you so very much! (From Email)

Cottage is wonderful!

We had a wonderful family vacation (with two teenage children) on Cape Cod at this lovely cottage. The setting right by the water was beautiful. The cottage was well-equipped with everything we needed including a grill, beach chairs, linens, beach towels, a fully stocked kitchen, and a full size washer and dryer. The large flat screen TV in the great room was an added plus. We loved having three large bedrooms (gorgeous views from second floor bedrooms) with two king sized beds and a queen sized bed. It is located near grocery stores and several charming ice cream shops and local restaurants. The sunsets were amazing and we enjoyed our nightly fires on the beach with s'mores. It was easy for us to travel to other parts of the Cape including Hyannis for catching the high speed ferry to Nantucket. We had fun going to several Cape Cod league baseball games. A relaxing, peaceful week.

A slice of heaven in Cape Cod! This beautiful home captures the true spirit of a dream Cape Cod vacation. The owners have meticulously updated this cottage to a perfect blend of original beauty and modern amenities. The open floor plan invites the entire family to gather, and the kitchen is equipped with everything one could think of, including an ice cream maker. The natural setting of the private beach is truly spectacular, and our family really enjoyed being steps away from the water. A very authentic beach experience. We are already planning our next stay!

My family and I just stayed at this beach cottage and we had a great time! The cottage is located in a gorgeous area and was beyond our expectations. The bedrooms are beautiful, the beds are so comfortable and the sea salt ocean breeze absolutely delightful. The bathrooms are clean and good looking. We loved the open main living area -it's cute, colorful and fun, and with the kitchen and dining areas right there, we could all be together while cooking, having a meal, playing games or watching a movie. The patio out back is lovely and private, but the best part is that the private beach is just steps out the back door! The owners are very thoughtful and seem to anticipate ones every need in the way they have equipped their home and take care of you. Its a very beautiful COTTAGE, and we had a GREAT vacation! We plan to come back again and again!

We have just concluded a week at the beach at this wonderful cottage. Everything was simply perfect. It was a great floor plan, beautifully decorated. I have back problems and the master bedroom had a very comfortable mattress. I did not suffer any back aches as I often do sleeping away from home. The beach was right at the back door. There is a wonderful small deck at the top of the dunes where I enjoyed sitting and watching the sunset each evening. The kitchen was great and very well supplied so my son-in-law, who is a foodie and terrific cook, was able to enjoy making some of his specialties for all of us. My son grilled some on the outdoor grill, and we enjoyed the ample seating at the picnic tables in the back porch. There is plenty of parking. The kind owners allow a canoe of theirs to be used if you wish, and there is a shed chock full of beach chairs and other supplies. A nice touch was that the cottage was supplied with milk, butter, eggs, and a specialty loaf of bread for us, making that first day a lot easier. The cottage was well located for us to explore any direction - rather centrally located - so it did not take that long to get to either end of the Cape. Our family really loves the outdoors, and we appreciated how quiet it was at night, and how many birds there were and the conservation nature trails nearby. I hope to rent this cottage again. We have rented quite a few times, in Nantucket, and at the Outer Banks and Hilton Head, and of all the summer rentals, this was one of our favorite places.

We felt lucky to find this serene place on the Cape as it was easy for our family arriving from all over the country. The back patio became the evening gathering for happy hour, grilling and major bean bag toss competitions. The wooden steps led to the private beach where we then enjoyed a nightly bonfire. We had paddle boards delivered to the door and had a blast on the water each day. The house has a perfect layout for hanging out together; an open great room, large dining table and two very clean bathrooms. The location right on the beach, we never slept so well in the very comfortable beds. We gladly look forward to returning, the owners were very kind and so helpful with suggestions and information. It is a peaceful, special place to truly vacation.

We have stayed here several times throughout the year and every stay is memorable. Both my kids love it and always ask when are we going back. It's very private and cozy. It's just feet away from the beach and water, minutes away from stores and site seeing. The home and grounds are clean and well kept and inviting. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a private and relaxing getaway!
