Family Summer Getaway

Amazing location - couldn't beat the proximity to the private beach. The house is a great layout if you have multiple families. You cannot beat the wrap around porch!

Perfect family vacation spot

This home perfectly accommodates our large extended family. The location is close to a wonderful beach and has wonderful outdoor spaces for hanging out. The house is quirky but has everything you need. This was our 2nd stay in this house and we look forward to returning again.

Great Family reunion house

We had our family's bi-annual reunion in this house - 8 adults, 6 children. It was great for that... lots of room, spacious rooms, responsive manager. Only caution was that the beach access required a 45 steep staircase down to the beach... a problem for some elder members.

Beautiful home and property!!

We loved the home and the proximity to the beach. Bryan was very helpful and the check-in process went smoothly. The house has plenty of room for everyone and the front porch was our favorite gathering spot! The kitchen is well-stocked and we loved the coffee bar in the morning. Thank you for a lovely stay!!

Beach vacation

We had a large group of 8 adults and 7 kids between 6 months and 4. The location of this house is perfect when doing a beach trip with kids as mayflower beach is amazing for kids to explore and it’s easy to walk back to the house for nap time. Overall the property was beautiful and we had a great time.

Wonderful beach week

Terrific stay in Dennis could not ask for a better location! Perfect for our family and small kids. Very well equipped kitchen. Air conditioning was a plus but there was great ventilation and most nights windows sufficed at night even at the end of August. Great communication from host. Hope to go back!

Great space for our extended family

Our family has been traveling to this part of the cape for many years. We were looking for more space for a larger group this year and this fit for us ! We had two couples and 5 other adults and had sleeping space for everyone. There are also two large living rooms, a big kitchen and tons of space on the wrap around porch - many coffees enjoyed. The walk to the private beach is wonderful to have. Obviously as an 1888 property the house has that type of charm and vibe but still had modern amenities to make it comfortable

RETURN TO ROOTS

This house was a return to childhood for Lin as she had grown up in Dennis in the 40's and 50's and enjoyed church activities at this property often. Everything we could have needed or wanted was available and everything worked. Plenty of hot water for showers and dishes and the wrap-around porch...just delightful for dining or just watching the world go by. Thank you, Bryan!

Perfect launching point for fun, beach, Cape adventures and relaxation!

Knew we’d picked the right place when my niece and nephew had started building a train set from the toy closet before we’d even unloaded the cars. Bryan has thought of everything and has a quick and thoughtful answer to any question or request. Great to have the private beach gate/stairs but a needed bonus that just a 5min walk away was a more accessible ramp, made for easier kayak launching. Enjoyed the whole week and will be looking for an excuse to gather the family again soon to enjoy the property!

Great stay near the beach

This house worked out so well for our family and we hope to return again. Location was fantastic, and easy and safe walk to the beach. The beach had a good amount of space unlike many other HOA beaches in Dennis. We loved the wraparound porch and yard area and that is where the kids spent most of their time. The layout worked out very well for our extended family; everyone had their own space. The home was very nice and pretty much as advertised; I wouldn't call it a modern luxury home but it isn't a rundown rental either. The house was well maintained and we were very comfortable.

Magical week in beautiful historic home

Our family of 13 had the most wonderful week in this spacious home, a one block walk from a private beach. We spent almost every afternoon at the beach and would walk down after dinner every night to catch the sunset before the little ones bedtime. The kitchen had everything we needed, the yard was amazing, we loved making s’mores at the fire pit, the wrap around porch was a dream, and there was so much space for our family we sometimes were searching for people. Any question we had was quickly answered by the wonderful host. The house is historic, beautiful, and old so while not as sparkling as a new build we much preferred the character, unique qualities, and spaciousness this gorgeous home provided. We truly had the best family vacation ever and hope to return to this house again someday!

Perfect Location

Pluses: We loved this spot with proximity to playgrounds, town and the beaches. The kitchen is very nicely stocked and big enough for everyone to gather round when cooking & eating. Brian was a great host and very responsive. Minuses: The main house has no A/C, so keep that in mind for the hot summer weeks. The gas grill didn’t work while we were there….charcoal was available though. The house (especially bathrooms) aren’t fancy. But, that didn’t bother us any. The history of the house is a beautiful thing. We would love to return to this spot for vacation, especially shoulder weeks when the weather isn’t too warm.

Perfect house for large groups. Close to everything.

This house is great in so many ways. It has many bedrooms that are large and airy. It has wonderful living space both inside and out. We loved the full wrap around deck. There are fun games to play on the lawn. The kitchen is well stocked with all the basics that you need. And not having to deal with your own linens as a big plus. The host is very responsive and we communicated several times during our stay. One person in our party left something and it was quickly mailed out and returned to us. Fantastic experience. Thank you!

Family Reunion 2022

Our family of 10 cousins enjoyed a wonderful week at the house. The reservation process was great and Bryan responded to our messages/questions very quickly. The house was spotless and had plenty of room for everyone. The yard was large enough to play catch and other outdoor games. One of our favorite spots at the house was the front porch. We sat outside to read and visit and we also ate several meals out there at the picnic tables. The fire pit area was a great place to make s'mores. The bedding was very comfortable. The walk to the beach was short and the private beach flat with gentle making it nice for children. The double outdoor showers were a big favorite of everyone. Without a doubt I would rent this property again.

Beautiful easy vacation house

Four households from my extended family met on the Cape for a memorial service. The house was perfect for us! Private beach access was still available in early October, and the walk around to the public access is very easy too. The house has a very large grassy yard which means even more space for a large group to spread out. The neighborhood is picturesque and quiet. (Lots of dog walkers on the street that wraps around the property, and you know dog walkers know the best streets for walking.) It was a wonderful weekend.
