Located in FALMOUTH, this immaculate 3 bedroom and newly added 2nd full bath house with outdoor Cedar shower is a 5 minute walk to Main Street, 20 minute walk to either Surf Drive Beach or short drive to Falmouth Heights Beach and a 5 minute bike ride to the Shinning bike bath. It is also only a 10 minute drive to the famous Old Silver Beach. A new 2nd FULL bath was added in 2024 along with a new washer and dryer in the basement. The home was entirely renovated in the fall of 2016 with all new ceramic tile and refinished hardwood floors. A newly renovated bathroom and entirely new kitchen with new cabinets, ceramic floor, granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances and a beautiful granite breakfast bar. The kitchen is bright and cheery with a large window seat overlooking the backyard and large deck that comfortably seats 10 people. The all Cedar outdoor shower is a must try. Enjoy cooking out with our newly installed fire pit or gas grill for your backyard barbecue. Walk to Falmouth Village to enjoy wonderful shops, restaurants and entertainment. Hop on your bikes and enjoy the beautiful ride along the beach on the Shining Sea bike path to quaint Woods Hole and home to the famous Falmouth Road Race.

Nice Cape Week location!

Exceptional immaculate interior at this home. Very comfortable and room for a big family. Beds were the most comfortable of 6 Cape rentals in as many years. Walking distance to Main Street shopping and restaurants. Short drive to beaches. Communication with the owner was perfect. We missed having a dryer and a 2nd bath (but there’s an outdoor shower). Recommended!

The house was in a centralized location, was clean and the owner was quick to respond. However, the grill didn’t work well, the washer machine in the basement was not very good, there was no dryer and the dish washer didn't work.

Ideal base for exploring the Cape

Joe and Pattie's home is a wonderful place from which to enjoy the beauty of Cape Cod and the islands. The rooms were clean, the beds comfy, the towels (well worth the extra) were soft, the sofas broad and enveloping, and the kitchen modern, with everything we needed (even, for British visitors, a kettle!) And the kids were very grateful for the smart TV and the fast wifi...The basement with washer and separate drier were a godsend. The biggest success was the brand new (and quiet!) air conditioning units in the bedrooms. The gardens are actually quite large - large enough to throw a new american football around, and the gas BBQ was easy to operate. A lovely touch is the outdoor shower, which we used to get rid of the sand and salt from beach trips, but which was private enough to be your main option if you wanted a bit of Maldives-style al fresco experience each day. From the very first contact, our hosts were sending helpful advice and information - things to see, stuff to do, places to eat, where to park, how much to expect to pay, what to do when it rains (and despite the scorchingly hot weather, it still did occasionally). The board games provided even managed to get the kids off their phones when we were stuck inside one day. If we had questions (which happened a few times) or an issue (just once or twice) then Joe was exceptionally quick to respond. Overall, a fantastic break, in a home with a lovely feel. If we come back to the Cape, we'd definitely stay here.

Fantastic location and lovely home

We like to bike, and this home was a quick ride to the bike path (either on Surf Dr or at the intersection of Jones St). It was a quick walk or ride on the bike into town for dinner, too. My 9yo son was in fishing camp most mornings, which left from Falmouth Harbor, also very close to the house. He loved the soccer goals and the big yard to play in as well. It was cool and poured one day during our week, and we had plenty of room to play games and lie around reading. The kitchen could use a few staples (vegetable peeler, a good paring or chopping knife) but overall lots of pots and pans and dishes to work with. There isn't a microwave so be aware of that if your family relies on one heavily (ours doesn't so we were fine). The house is well-cared for and newly refinished. Nice cross ventilation with the windows open and the option of air conditioning in the bedrooms if it is too warm/humid. It's also not at all damp. I have terrible mold allergies, and cottages on the Cape often have damp basements, making for a less pleasant vacation for me. But this house was dry despite a day of downpours. Thank you, Joe, for a wonderful stay. We highly recommend this rental.

Summer stay McPhail family

Pattie and Joe are excellent hosts, all communication in good time, check in and check out straightforward and lots of very helpful tips and recommendations for the local area. Lovely spacious home, quiet neighbourhood, very convenient for Falmouth Main Street and beaches/ferries. Outdoor seating area really made it for us as the weather was beautiful. The outdoor shower was also a hit! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend a stay.

Great Location!

We had a wonderful week on the Cape at Joe’s home. We loved the recent renovations done in the kitchen and living areas. The space was comfortable and the neighborhood nice and quiet. The home is on a street with two entryways. If you go out one way, you end up right on Main Street. If you exit the other way, you end up in the commercial area with groceries, etc to choose from. We loved the outdoor shower and the spacious back deck. The only thing we missed having at the house was a washer and dryer. We highly recommend this home.

Beautiful , comfortable home, great location !

Very clean, comfortable, nicely decorated home for 4 adults , a 3 1/2 year old and a 3 month old. The house was walking distance to the playground, carousel and downtown Falmouth. Many great restaurants and shops . The beaches were a 5 minute drive away which we enjoyed in the late afternoon. We had a few very hot days but the bedroom ACs & a large fan in living room were able to cool the whole house . We were very comfortable. Pattie and Joe, the owners were very responsive to any inquiries that we had during our stay. My whole family was delighted with our stay.

Nice stay with great location!

The house was clean and updated with ample space for the 5 adults with our group. The deck and yard were perfect for the family gathering we hosted. The house was the perfect location in a quiet neighborhood, and only a short walk to the restaurants and shops. Hosts made the stay even better with easy communication and lots of suggestions for local restaurants and beaches.

Lovely Cape Home Close to Everything

This home is lovely - nicely appointed and spotless. The kitchen is well equipped and the yard and deck and fire pit are delightful ( bring your s’mores supplies). It is a short walking distance to Main Street and a bit longer walk to the beach, with many other beaches within a short driving distance. The owners were easy to contact and everything was as they stated it would be.

Very easy and straight forward booking process. Home is meticulously kept. Easy walk to downtown Falmouth and close to Shining Sea bike path. The only downside is limited beach parking due to Covid restrictions. Definitely have to get to the beach early for a spot!

Wonderful Week in Falmouth that went by too quickly.....

Nestled on a side road away from the traffic less than two miles from the beach - pleasant sidewalk stroll - is this three bedroom Cape Style ranch house with a wonderful deck for outdoor dining. There is ample parking for four cars and a lovely yard all around. Very private and peaceful. The updated and clean home is replete with beach toys and every kitchen amenity one would want. The lovely shops, restaurant and beach are close, and some of us chose our feet over taking the car to have a closer examination of the homes and friendly people en route. The bedrooms are air-conditioned and comfortable. The outdoor shower was a special treat and kept the sand outside where it belongs. The Stop and Shop and other mall stores are also less than a mile. We would gladly return to this lovely home, whose welcoming nature was only superseded by the gracious, generous and professional owners who were attentive to all our vacation needs! Five adults were very happy to eat, drink and do puzzles until midnight. Bravo!

Great Location

This home is in a great location. Set back on a quiet street and walking distance into town. It was very clean and comfortable. There are window units in each bedroom which are quiet and work well and the beds were comfortable. A couple things to note, bed linens and bath towels are not provided. Also, if watching tv is something you like to do in the evening, the number of stations are very limited. No ESPN etc. Overall we really liked the home and location and would definitely go back.

Would stay again

We had a great week at our rental. We loved the house. It is has charming beach decor and room for everyone. There is everything you need to cook a meal and grill. While there is only one bathroom, the outdoor shower is great when everyone is trying to get ready for the day at the same time. I don't think my daughter or I used the indoor shower once. Everything was clean on arrival and our directions for check in were exact. The location is great if you like to walk to everything or if you want to drive. I have never come home this relaxed from a vacation before. Everything about the house was perfect. I would highly recommend renting from Joe and Patti.

Lovely cottage in an ideal location to walk to town and beach

We really enjoyed our stay. Ideal location to walk to town. Very comfortable, open and airy place. Be aware that you should take basics like toilet paper, paper towels, dishwashing liquid, hand soap, dishwasher tablets, garbage bags and other essentials, since there is absolutely nothing provided. Kitchenware is basic - take a tea kettle if you don’t drink coffee and good cooking knives if you are a cook. The WiFi works if you turn on the wall switch, which took us a bit of sleuthing to figure out! Info on arrival and departure was sent on the day of, which might be a problem if you like to plan ahead. The area was new to us and we would absolutely go back to Falmouth again. We were happy that we chose this place to stay.

The holiday of a lifetime!

We recently returned home to Ireland after 12 wonderful days in Joe and Patti's beautiful house in Falmouth. We were visiting the United States for the first time with our three teenaged daughters and could not have picked a more idyllic spot than Falmouth. The house was extremely comfortable and was spotless on arrival,beds were comfortable and the house catered more than adequately in every sense for our family of five. The fabulous deck was the setting for many memorable evening barbecues and we always looked forward to returning home to our lovely house in Falmouth after busy days exploring the Cape. Local culinary finds for us were Devine Pizza in Falmouth village and Jacks Bar and Restaurant which is located within a three minute walk of the house. The highlight for us though came from a recommendation from someone we met out dining one evening, The Lobster Trap in Bourne, about 20 minutes drive away was where we had the most amazing food,so good that we returned there for our final meal before leaving Falmouth. Fantastic day trips included the Sunshine Bike Way to Woods Hole, a day trip to Provincetown and a visit to Martha's Vineyard, all wonderful days out. All my correspondence with Joe was so easy and he gave excellent recommendations for making our visit to Falmouth a memorable one, a happy happy holiday for all of us. Thank you Joe and Patti!
