Quiet get-away

The property is small but very clean, with lots of extras like a selection of spices, a variety of towels, and a fabulous private deck. It has a washer and drier and a dishwasher - all bonuses in my book! I would definitely stay there again.

Great cottage in woods hole area

Had a wonderful weekend - a great place to stay for close access to downtown Falmouth and the island ferries. Cottage was super clean with a great deck to chill out on. Host was super supportive and had an easy check in/out process. Two thumbs up!

Cozy hilltop retreat in Woods Hole

This cozy hilltop cottage served as a wonderful retreat for my mom and me for four nights over the Labor Day 2024 weekend. We loved how clean, bright and quiet it was; its simple unadorned charm reminded us of cottages of yesteryear and its proximity to Woods Hole Village was ideal. With my help my mom, age 88, managed the 16 stairs going up to the property, but as the listing notes this place isn’t for people with mobility issues. The owner Rhys was very good at communicating with us and we greatly enjoyed our vacation at his cottage.

Just right

Nicely done cottage. Clean and quiet. Close to ferry, beach and "downtown" Woods Hole - walkable half mile away. Owner provides extras like bikes to ride.

Great little cottage

My husband and I stayed here with our 1 year old son. It was perfect base for us to take day trips along the cape. The best part was the walking access to the ferry to Martha’s Vineyard. This was great Bc we didn’t have to deal with the process of parking at the ferry lot 2 miles up the road, taking a bus to the ferry etc. we just walked .7 miles from the cottage and walked right into the ferry! So convenient. Woods hole is a really cool place in cape cod, it’s still filled with locals and has a ton of research facilities which makes it a little more low key than a place like chatham or Dennis etc which was perfect for our style. Cottage was very clean and host was very easy to communicate with. If you have young kids or an elderly person just note you do have to walk up stairs built into an embankment to get to the cottage. We placed the baby’s pack and play in the office as there was not enough room in the bedroom for the bed and the pack and play, but that was not an issue for us. Cottage is in a quiet neighborhood which was really nice. Comes loaded with all the cooking spices! We would stay here again for sure!

Delightful Cottage in Wood's Hole

This was my first experience with a home rental through Vrbo. It was very easy to communicate with the owner, not only about the practical things but about what to do and see while I was there. The cottage was perfect for one or two but there was futon for the kids. It was well-furnished, tastefully but not over-done. Very much a Cape-Cod feeling.. Great base camp for biking and kayaking.

Just right for getaway!

Loved the cottage. It was just right for our little getaway. Rhys was responsive to our questions and gave us good suggestions for the area restaurants and places. Appreciated the use of the bikes. Great location for a bike ride into towns, beaches, and a day trip to Martha’s Vineyard.

About the host

Hosted by Rhys

Host profile image
I moved to Woods Hole for scientific work after college and fell in love with the area very quickly. While my career has long since taken me off Cape, I still get down to the "Hole" as often as I can to swim, fish, cycle, barbecue with friends, bird watch, etc.

Why they chose this property

From great fishing to swimming at Stoney Beach after an evening of pickup volleyball, this area has lots to offer anyone who prefers to spend their time outdoors. This cozy little cottage is close to everything and has all you need to cook great meals and relax before & after a long day on the water or at the beach. Still have some energy? Hop on a bike or stroll on down into the village for an evening meal, outdoor concert, drinks, and/or dancing.

What makes this property unique

Proximity to both Buzzards Bay and Vineyard Sound Beaches means you'll almost always find a spot to lay your towel and relax comfortably no matter what direction or speed the wind is blowing.
Only 0.3 miles to Church St, the start of one of the most scenic driving/jogging/bike riding routes in the State of Mass.
The diversity of colorful birds visiting the feeder in spring is impressive, and the sound track they provide in the mornings and evenings is simply divine. Don't be surprised to see wild turkeys grazing in the yard while you enjoy your morning coffee.
