Yarmouth Vacation Rental - ID 36323

What’s not to love about a Cape Cod vacation with bright sunny days by the river? Anticipate loads of fun in the sun at “Sunny Daze by Bass River” with its rooftop deck with treehouse views and its proximity to Bass River. Walk 200 steps from the house to one of 2 neighborhood launches, where you can drop a kayak straight into the beautiful Bass River. Or head to the beach nearby and have a quick swim on the ocean’s sandbar and know you are finally on Cape Cod.

On and Around Bass River:
Bass River is one of the best places to kayak on the Cape. It meanders and wanders its way inland for miles from Nantucket Sound, making it the longest river on Cape Cod. Local folklore tells us that the Vikings sailed the Bass River many, many years ago, and there is a rock on the river named “Viking Rock”. Explore the unique coastline up and down Bass River and do some fishing, or go tubing in the more shallow sections.

Grab a kayak from the 3 at the house, and paddle to several casual restaurants where you can dock ‘n dine. Summer Shanty offers plenty of outdoor seating where you can grab a luncheon lobster roll or a bowl of freshly-caught steamed clams and watch boats come and go at Bass River Marina. Or head to Sundancer’s and enjoy a boardwalk cocktail and live music by the marina.

About the Home
“Sunny Daze by Bass River” features a brand new rooftop deck with glimpses of Bass River. It is spacious and sun-filled with a dining table that seats 6. It offers relaxing views of lush lawns, the courtyard with arbor trellis and stone patio below, and well-established tree tops and sunsets over the vista’s distanced view.

The lower stone patio courtyard is perfect as a quiet and private area for morning coffee. Part sun and part shade, it has a great BBQ area with a mini-kitchen to make it easy to serve a meal or s’mores to large gatherings around the fire pit. There is also another more secluded seating area by the arbor for quiet conversations with coffee or cocktails or enjoying a good book.

Meal prep is also a snap in this light, bright kitchen with skylight and stainless appliances. It features a breakfast bar that seats 2.

The family room is light-filled with wood-planked ceilings and will be your hang-out place with comfy couches to binge-watch movies and a round table for dining and board games. The other cozy living room beckons as a place to read, send some emails or close your eyes for a quick nap. The lower level offers yet another quiet area in the library with a half bath.

The suntastic roof deck is accessed through the loft sleeping area with 3 twin beds for kids that love to giggle their way to sleep. The main floor offers 2 bedrooms, a Primary bedroom with a king bed and the other with a queen bed. The main bath is shared by all on the first floor.

Beaches Nearby
If you’re a beach lover, West Dennis beach is closest - under 1 mile from the property. It is a mile long, beautiful, sandy, ocean beach on Nantucket Sound, where the waves smoothly and calmly hit the shore and the gulls soar overhead and the salt air tantalizes your senses. You will collect plenty of seashells here. It has plenty to do for the whole family: there's a playground, snack bar, and kite flying area, showers and many lifeguard stations, along with a large parking lot.

If you’re looking for an excellent place to watch and/or photograph the sunrise, or watch boats head out for the day, we recommend Smuggler’s Beach in South Yarmouth (formerly Bass River Beach), which is under 3 miles from the home. A gorgeous, sandy beach at the mouth of Bass River, it has warm water. Enjoy the sights and sounds of the ocean, and watch boats or paragliders across the river while strolling its quiet, restful walkway and fishing pier over a stone jetty. The beach has volleyball nets up all summer, for anyone wanting to play beach volleyball. The calm waves never get too big, so it is safe for kids. With a snack shack, lifeguards on duty, ample parking (paid) and clean restrooms, and a summer movie series, it is a nice place to spend a beach day. You can even walk along the water and stop at a nearby hotel for cocktails on their patio.

Another beautifully spectacular place to catch the most magnificent sunsets is the boardwalk at Gray’s Beach in Yarmouth Port on the bay side of the Cape. The boardwalk crosses over the marsh with its meandering salt waterways hosting a variety of sea life. There are over half-dozen benches to sit on and observe the most interesting wildlife in the seagrass and marine life in the water.

Or, if you prefer the pristine sand of the Dennis beaches further up Route 6A on the northside of Cape Cod Bay, they are also easily accessible by car: Chapin Beach, Corporation Beach, Mayflower Beach should not be missed.

Anyone visiting the Cape wanting the real Cape Cod Experience, should be sure to vacation at “Sunny Daze by Bass River”, where everyone can relax and have fun in the salt water and sun. read more show less
