Lovely house and yard. Pool is a big plus. Great service from owners. Excellent location walking distance to Cape Rail trail.
8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2024
We stayed here with family for 6 days in July and the place was definitely a good pick, but had some let downs. Overall, we enjoyed our stay here with its great location to restaurants/bars, large pool, spacious home, and a great outdoor space for eating/entertaining. Downfalls included: Pool heater broken for 4 of the 6 days Was told house had AC in all main living areas (but 1st floor living room/kitchen did not have anything) Outdoor lights didn’t work first night until we troubleshooted ourselves how to fix Fridge was at 60 degrees when we arrived and took a day to get cold again (had to store all food in coolers) Host was very responsive to our concerns, but things did not get fixed quickly (pool the biggest concern!) They did provide some $$ off, but still frustrating as our baby didn’t want to be in pool when it was too cold. You can tell the owners are very hands off. If you’re there for the cape vibes and don’t care much about what was listed above, this may be a good spot for you!

We absolutely loved our time here. The house was clean and had everything we needed. The grounds were beautiful, private and peaceful and we spent hours out in the heated pool. Definitely a highlight of the property and made our trip so much more enjoyable. This was our first time staying in Harwich and we loved the area. Super close to beaches and a cute main town with shops and many impressive restaurants. The hosts are very informative and responsive and even left us a sweet treat from the local bakery when we first arrived. Definitely recommend staying here! Thank you for a great trip!
