Wonderful stay
This place was just wonderful. Everything was clean, neat, and organized. There were all the subtle amenities there to make for an easy stay. The location was great, so close to the Main Street with shops and restaurants and a reasonably close drive to other destinations on the Cape. We would stay here again!

Best Girls Getaway!
My friend and I stayed here for a girls getaway for my 30th! The room with the twin beds was perfect and felt like our college dorm all over again...with MUCH comfier beds! I would recommend this location and home to anyone looking for a relaxing Cape Cod stay. It is in the perfect location. My only regret is not staying during the summer season!

Comfortable, casual beach vibe
Great location, quiet neighborhood, perfect for our stay in every way. The outdoor space was especially appreciated, everything inside and out was clean and tidy. The house was well equipped, lacking nothing with bonus space in the cute outbuilding including beach/recreation gear. The owners were easy to communicate with and seem super sweet. Highly recommend!
