Quiet Winter Vacay on the Cape

Come enjoy your Cape Cod vacation in Cotuit with easy access on and off the Cape by staying in a quintessential Cape house that is fully stocked with everything you need to make your stay comfortable and only a 10 minute walk to the beach.

Plenty of linens and towels are provided, along with Barnstable beach sticker, beach chairs, umbrella, toys, KAYAKS, life jackets, bikes, helmets, coolers, stationary workout bike, rowing machine, etc.

ALSO, Just a short walk (10-15min.) or bike ride to 2 beaches, or about 1 mile away is the home of the Cotuit Kettleers baseball field where you can enjoy some of the best college baseball players play games from June-August . You can also use our beach sticker to park at all the beaches in Barnstable County if you want to explore other beaches.

When you first enter the house, you will notice its open floor plan. The inviting family room is open to both the spacious dining area and large kitchen that is furnished with all the comforts of your own home. In the dining room is a white wicker chest that houses some fun games that both adults and kids will enjoy playing. We have also added more games in the front coat closet. The best part of the house though, is conveniently located just outside the new french doors of the dining area...the EXTRA LARGE (approximately 400 square feet) completely screened in porch! If you know the Cape, you know the value of a screened in porch on those muggy days of summer. With its vaulted ceiling, recessed lights, bar, sitting area, and cool breeze the screens allow, this section of the house is perfect for relaxing with your morning coffee, taking a mid day nap, or entertaining in the evening. The porch has recently been converted into a 3 season porch with windows installed during the colder months.

The first floor features the first of its 3 bedrooms with its plush, queen size bed and wall air conditioning unit. A spacious remodeled 3/4 bathroom with walk-in shower is located just across the hall.

Two washers and two dryers are located in the basement for large loads if needed.

Upstairs, you will find two large, seaside decorated bedrooms. Both of these bedrooms include wall air conditioning units. To the left of the stairs is the Master bedroom, furnished with a king size memory foam bed and includes a sitting area to read or watch T.V., as well as a stationary bike (2021). The other bedroom includes 4 twin memory foam beds and is a fun place to have a slumber party. Located between the two bedrooms is a large, full bathroom.

Let's not forget the outside! An outdoor shower (2021 new) is located in the backyard! If you have never taken a shower outside, you need to try it! It's an extremely refreshing way to clean up after a day at the beach. A newly relandscaped large grassy yard surrounds the house from the front, to the left side of the house around the porch, and into the backyard, and large front deck was just added.

Items included with this rental...
2 Kayaks
2 kid size life vests
1 adult size life vest
4 adult bikes
2 kid bikes
8 Beach towels
8 beach chairs
2 beach umbrellas
1 beach bag,
beach toys - All are located in the garage and downstairs bathroom closet
corn hole game (located in basement)

No Sunday departures unless owner agrees.
Three night minimum stay unless owner agrees to less.
One night advance notice if owner can secure a cleaner.

Dogs are not to be left alone on the porch. Otherwise, $500 will be taken from security deposit.

Picturesque stay
Check-in was easy. The neighborhood was very quaint and safe. I was able to walk my dog at all times of day. The walk to the beach was about 15 min and, sadly, dogs are not allowed on the beach this time of year or else it would have been perfect. The screened porch was our favorite feature and we spent most of the days and nights out there. My only complaint is that the comforters didn't have covers on them and it was unclear when they were last washed. But it wasn't a big deal as they had 2 sets of washer and dryers downstairs so we threw them in for a quick wash. Overall, would definitely stay again.

Excellent Cape Cod Vacation Home
This property and owners were great. Property description was accurate and home is well laid out and clean & modern. We enjoy the location and used the nice extras available like bikes which we used often and the kayaks. Beach parking pass was great too for Barnstable beaches. Instructions and home information were laid out clearly and owner Carolyn was helpful with minor troubleshooting before and while on-site. Neighborhood is on quiet street and highly recommend. Felt very nice and comfortable in this home.

A perfect Cape Code getaway
This was the perfect Cape Cod home for our group of five women doing a cycling trip. The house was large, clean, well appointed, and comfortable for our stay. The screen porch was delightful and the outdoor shower heavenly after our day of riding in 90plus degree temps. The room AC units kept things comfortable and by evening the porch was delightful with the overhead fan. We loved morning walks around the neighborhood admiring the lovely homes and walked to the beach (chairs and towels nicely provided) for a late afternoon siesta. Truly everything is provided and well organized. Carolyn is readily available for any questions. Loved our stay.

Cute house in a Lovely town
The property had lovely landscaping, an amazing, huge outdoor shower, beautiful large screened in porch and a very well equipped kitchen. Everything you would need to cook at home. The little neighborhood grocery store just down the road was adorable and had great food so we went there several times. Very charming and old school vibe. The kids loved to use the nice bikes available to bike around the quiet little neighborhood. We really enjoyed the nearby shopping center Mashpee Commons. It has great shops, restaurants and entertainment. Check in was quick and easy. The only drawback was the upstairs bedrooms had a musty smell when we arrived for the first night until we aired them out. I am super sensitive to smells and get headaches if there is mildew or mustiness. I know it come with the area near the ocean but It did keep me awake the first night. I presume the house had not been opened up recently so once we cracked the windows the smell dissipated overnight. That was my only complaint but overall I would definitely stay here again. Thank you!
