About this house rental

This cozy home set off the main road on a private lane offers 4 bedrooms which can be difficult to find on Cape Cod. Formerly a two bedroom cottage, the home's footprint was expanded to include 4 bedrooms and would be perfect for a large family or a few friends traveling together. For those new to this area, the downstairs is part of the original 1940s cottage and does have shorter ceilings around 7 1/2 feet (real cozy!). The upstairs, added in the 80s has a more traditional ceiling height.

The home is centrally located between Dennis Port and Harwich Port and it is a short 800 yard walk to the beach. With multiple shops and restaurants within a 10 minute drive in either direction, finding a meal or some new Cape Cod gear is just around the corner. Much like this home, Harwich Port is going through an upgrade over the last 5 years and has many new shops and eateries.

The backyard oasis has a brand new ground level deck, brand new grass (artificial, shhh! don't tell anyone), and a seating area with fire pit for the off season guests looking for a getaway. While cornhole is one of our favorite pastimes out here, the "Olympic field", as we call it, can be used for a handful of different games or Cape Cod's best activity, relaxing.

Recently updated den is a perfect hideaway for kids (or adults) of all ages. With a pop out sofa, it is perfect for movie nights or video game marathons. The rooms comes with a Nintendo Switch docking station as well as a 3n1 HDMI outlet that is easily accessible in the media center.

The downstairs bathroom, formerly labeled the 'cruise ship bathroom', just completed a down to the studs renovation (May 2022). She is small but mighty now!

Seasonally, each bedroom window will have an AC unit as well as the living room in the summer. A gas insert was installed in March of 2023 for any fall guests that may want to enjoy a fire at the push of a button. Baseboard heaters are available to warm up whatever rooms you are using throughout the home.

This home is less than two years off of an ownership change and we are constantly making improvements that may not be updated in all the photos!

Comfortable, roomy house that is well stocked with supplies. The area in back is nice for children to play in. The Pleasant Street beach is a good one and is not far to drive to. For those who go to mass, a Catholic church is very close by and can be walked to.We had a nice stay.

We had a wonderful time and can't wait to return. We appreciated the GREAT communication with Drew from the time we booked to addressing some minor issues while we were at the house. Drew is a fair guy who wants to make your visit a happy one. His property manager Kristen was great as well. The location of the house is perfect. The neighbors on both sides were super friendly. The house is adorable, and we loved the outside backyard. The barbeque, fire pit, and the turf backyard made for the perfect spot to entertain our family. The string lights out back were a nice added bonus to the backyard area. There is a shed with extra chairs for sitting out back, corn hole, a wagon, and cooler for the beach. There may have been beach chairs in there as well, but I didn't look for them as we brought our own. The small room on the main level was a nice added bonus, when my group of 5 wanted a little more space from one another. The beds were plenty. My husband commented on the comfort of the king bed, offering a very restful night's sleep. There are three bedrooms upstairs (two of which are very large). The smaller room has two twin beds. The upstairs bathroom was plenty spacious. The washer and dryer appeared new and were nice to have. There are A/C units throughout the house, and, worked well to cool off the home. There is one bedroom downstairs with two twin beds. We had a lovely experience renting this home. Thank you, Drew for opening your home to us!!!

Host was great! Location is fantastic. We rented bikes and enjoyed the quick and easy access to the beaches and Main Street shopping. Owners have put care into the home and have completed some nice updates. Rental included access to 4 beach chairs, wagon, large cooler, a few boogie boards and lots of beach toys.

Everything about the stay was wonderful. The only criticism I would have is that the downstairs shower does not get hot, however, because there was a second shower upstairs this was not a major issue.
