My husband and I along with our teenage daughter and her friend stayed at Chris and Brenda's place in August 2018. I truly enjoyed our stay at their cottage. We typically rent in Dennis but we wanted to change things up and stay close to the National Seashore on this vacation.
The cottage was beautiful. It was nicely decorated. It's not a huge place, but it wasn't that small either. It fit the 4 of us just fine, and could have accommodated one more. The air conditioner in the kitchen area kept the living areas cool, and even during the long heat wave, the fans in the bedroom windows were enough to keep you comfortable enough to sleep at night with the door closed.
The kitchen is nicely stocked. They even have a basket with herbs in the closet if you forgot to bring something. We used all the appliances, and everything worked great, especially the blender - hahaha.
The bedrooms have enough storage for your clothing. I loved the baskets to keep small clothing in. A place for everything and everything in it's place.
The outdoor shower was absolutely awesome!! We also enjoyed the use of the large deck every morning for coffee or evening for drinks. We brought our own, but they provide beach chairs and beach games in the basement. Also in the basement is the washer and dryer that we made very good use of. We enjoyed walking to the bayside beach just down the dirt road along the side of the cottage for sunsets. The drive to the National Seashore took minutes. I think it was about 2+ miles away. There were restaurants conveniently located to the cottage as well. We went to the drive-in on Friday. The back entrance is just down the street from the house.
My husband and I enjoy running. I loved the location of this cottage for running or walking. The cottage is in the middle of a lovely neighborhood filled with treed lots. In the heat of the summer, it was so nice to find a 3 mile run where I could run by ocean if I wanted that particular view, or run in the shade of the trees through the very quiet and peaceful neighborhood if I preferred.
We will keep Chris and Brenda's place on our short list of "let's do this again." Also - working with Chris and Brenda was a treat. They are very nice people, and very easy to work with. Zero problems, tons of fun. I highly recommend staying here.show moreshow less
