Secluded Gem of a Home!!

We came down for an Ironman weekend and Cambridge and we’re absolutely blown away by the stunning beauty of this property and amount of space to bring the whole family! From the pool and plenty of outdoor space to the kayaks and crab pots, all of the kids had an incredible vacation in this amazing home. Plus the sunset views from the back deck and screened in porch made every night absolutely picturesque! With two structures giving the perfect amount of space for the kids to play and the adults to hang out our entire clan had such a wonderful time. Being just a bit outside of Cambridge but plenty close to get to the race and supplies, my family was able to see us twice on the bike course before they headed into town to catch us at the finish line. Gorgeous home and would recommend to anyone! My niece asked me at the end of the trip if I could do the Ironman again next year so we can come back to this house.. stunning!
