We had fun.

I was a little concerned with how close the rental property was, but the gentleman was nice and was always working. We had a great time just resting and relaxing. Never did get to use the kayaks. The tides never right for when we could use them.

Beautiful house, very warm downstairs

This is a gorgeous place in a phenomenal little town. We've been coming to Onset for a decade and it is perfect for families. The house is set on a marsh and we really enjoyed its view and the rooms were very comfortable. The downstairs was large and open and pleasant. Unfortunately, the downstairs is not air conditioned, and I blame myself for not reading the description closely and thinking more about this possibility. At the high price point for this house, I would have rented somewhere else with full air conditioning had I thought about it ahead of time. It's a trade off since the location is truly beautiful, but people spent time in the upstairs separate air conditioned rooms because the space downstairs was uncomfortable, even with fans in the windows. Again, this is not the fault of the owners and I should have read the description more closely.

Easy, breezy beach living!

Extremely well stocked, clean sweet beach house that my whole family loved. Fun to kayak in the cove at high tide, and the beach is just a few minutes walk. We really appreciated the layout of the sitting area and the ease of working in the kitchen. Loads of windows to fully enjoy the water views.

Christmas Family Reunion

This was the perfect location for a Christmas reunion for my adult children and young grandchildren children. Beautiful scenery as house is right on marshland with lots of birds. We enjoyed our walks along the adjacent beach and an outdoor fire pit with marshmallows and hot chocolate even in cold weather. Kitchen with island, and incredibly long dining room table facilitated comfortable meals for 7 adults and 4 young children. We have family nearby that didn’t sleep at rental. My favorite was seeing my children with their children playing at nearby playground built when my children were young. Nicole is very accessible and gracious host. Photos of living room need updating as the the huge white sectional pictured is no longer there, although there is still plenty of seating. Overall great location to many attractions on and off Cape Cod, and great vacation!

Fun on the Cape Cod Canal

Our family enjoyed our stay at this great home tucked away on the water. Plenty of room for us, kids enjoyed the short walk to play on the beach! Didn't have a chance to kayak but loved watching the tide come in each day! Great restaurants and fun things to do!

Cute house in picturesque Onset Beach

Beautiful view from the many windows in this cute 4 bedroom 1.5 bath house. It was a nice house. We liked the kitchen & dining areas. There was convenient access kayaking when high tide. The outside shower would have really helped if it was a private full height shower with a door. Onset beach is gorgeous with a cute little town and a few restaurants ice cream places. It was also a convenient launch point for for cape and Boston area sites. We had a great time. The cleanliness was okay just had a delayed entry to the place which we had worked out with Nicole. She was a very thoughtful and communicative host.

While we were up in Massachusetts for a sad reason, funeral, the house really made for a wonderful stay. The house was very clean and lined with windows to allow the natural light in. I was actually sad to have to leave. Looking forward to a future stay at this postcard perfect home.

Pleasant stay

Had a great week at a great home. Property located nestled in a nice, quiet neighborhood, and love the natural view behind the property. Short walk to restaurants. Nice open-concept main floor. Home well stocked with all the essential supplies. Stayed there with my brothers for a fishing vacation, and the owner was more than accommodating for us. Would highly recommend . (Thanks Nicole!)

Amazing for our family of 7

This is our 2nd year staying at the light house and we loved it again. Already planning on returning next spring! We travel with 2 kids (under 5), my Mother and Father in-law, my Mother and Husband. The house feels spacious and there is plenty of space for everyone to enjoy each other's company as well as some quiet time on their own. The family room, dinning room and kitchen area are an open pace that allows for cooking and eating together. The grand parents specially loved the time with the kids. The house is very well kept and super clean. Plenty of towels, pillows, and blankets. There is also a high chair and pack and play that are super convenient if you have little ones. Took the kids for a walk and were so pleased with how quiet the neighborhood is and how cute the views are. The owners keep plenty of entertainment for the little ones; game boards, Lego sets, toys, even books to read at night time. There is also a kayak which my husband and i took out!!! you can get on the water right from the back yard :) Location is close to the supermarket, shops and while you are there make sure to visit Marc Anthony's La Pizzeria for great pies, salads and friendly service. Thanks Nicole for another great time! we will be back :)

Fantastic Stay

WOW! We had a wonderful time, traveled with my in-laws, my mother, two kids and husband. We felt right at home. We had plenty of space to mingle and for the kids to play. There were also books and toys as well as other kid items (like a high chair) that we used during our stay. The house is beautifully decorated and cared for, *Beds were so comfy, there were plenty of pillows and blankets; rooms were nicely staged with beautiful furniture and fabrics. *Kitchen was equipped with everything you need, and then some. *Bathrooms were super super clean! toiletries and soft towels provided. *The welcome basket was a nice detail. *Views were great. Definitively will be coming back!
