We had a relaxing and fun stay at Terry's house in Falmouth. The view from the house and the backyard was a perfect 10! The water on the inlet was often sparkling and we saw many interesting birds - swans, egrets, osprey - it was so pretty! We went canoeing and kayaking on the inlet and that was fun and allowed us the opportunity see more of the water. There are not many houses at that end of the inlet which makes it rather private and quiet on the water. My kids and I also frequently swam in the water from the dock - once you get past the seaweed part at the edge of the pond - it is really warm and quite nice for swimming.

The house was very comfortable for our family of 4 plus a few guests during the week. It was also very clean and very well maintained. The deck next to the kitchen was very nice for relaxing and eating outdoors. The beds were very comfortable, the living areas were also nice with big comfortable couches. The kitchen was great for cooking and preparing meals. Terry was always helpful when needed but did not bother us during the week. We could just text him if we needed anything or if we had a question. It was great that he provided the sheets and comforters and the beds already made when we arrived. He also provided bath towels and washcloths .

We bought a Falmouth town beach sticker so we could park at the various Falmouth beaches - it could be easily purchased any day of the week. Surf Drive beach was one our favorites as it is pretty, was never very crowded and had a snack bar and restrooms. We also had the opportunity to explore Falmouth which is a really nice town - great shops and restaurants and lots of beaches. We also explored Hyannis which is very close for some fun shopping and good meals. And we did a one day drive to Provincetown for shopping - about 1.5 hr drive. Overall the house was very comfortable, very private, quiet and in a really nice area of the Cape. Highly recommended!!show moreshow less

We had a wonderful stay! So cozy, and we really like classic Cape-style houses with antique furniture. It was very relaxing and so many different rooms to hang out in and lots of space for everyone to spread out.

Even though the weather was not good, we still had fun. It was relaxing just being at the house and relaxing on the back deck and just enjoying a good book. My husband liked relaxing in the main living room, my younger daughter liked the upstairs and could escape up there and my older daughter also liked the back deck. Something for everyone! The outdoor shower was nice to have after going to the beach. We also really liked Falmouth- the shore beach as well as the cute town with great restaurants and cute shops.

Just one note is that there is no A/C in the upstairs (there are lots of fans) - my teenager was fine with that - but it could be an issue for some people, Also the stairs to the upstairs are very narrow and would be difficult for anyone with accessibility issues. And the beds in the house tend to be on the softer side - which was fine with us - but some might prefer firmer. The owner is very responsive and easy to contact if any issues came up (we had no issues) , which was great.

I really liked the fact that the homeowner provided beds already made up with sheets and provided bath towels (at the end of the stay - the maid service took care of everything for the next visitor). It was such a relief not to have to deal with that - at previous houses - I had to bring sheets, make beds, bring towels etc. - this saved me a lot of work on arrival.

I also am a bird watcher and i loved seeing the ospreys on their nests (one just at the end of the street) and also flying along the beach - that was a real treat, And i rode my bike on the bike path which was very close and enjoyable - very easy to bike to Woods Hole and other areas in the north.

Flying bridge and Cucina sur mare were favorite restaurants. We also discovered the French bakery! Overall a great stay!show moreshow less
