3 Doors from Private Beach on Nantucket Sound

Perfect little cottage with just what we needed! Exactly as listed and clean with nice amenities. Looking forward to returning next summer!

Although we had a great week weather-wise, there are some things we wish we had known before we booked. I hope this review is helpful for future renters. Location gets 5 stars. The house is steps from a private beach – although the slice of beach you will be 'permitted' to sit on is barely 20' wide. The owners sure need to give this house some love before next summer. The furnishings and fixtures are extremely sparse. The lighting is uncomfortable (only one lamp in the entire house, a bare bulb in the center of the living room, and yet, too bright and harsh in the kitchen/dining area – all fluorescent bulbs are on one switch, so it feels either like stage lighting or too dark to see your food! There are ripped screens on windows/doors throughout the house. The kitchen is ill-equipped for more than 2-3 people. No dishwasher! The garbage can pedal is broken, and there isn't a door handle on the outside of the kitchen slider. The outdoor shower only closes from the outside with an elastic band! The outdoor dining tabletop looks like there had been a fire. The single, tiny bathroom has no shelving or towel racks. The stairway is VERY steep and narrow. This house is difficult for more than 2 people, although the listing accurately says it sleeps 8.

We enjoyed this property so much that I'm hesitant to give the property the accolades that it deserves. I'm tempted to give it a one star review so that the place does not fill up. Alas, I'm not an evil person and I feel inclined to do the honest and appropriate thing. What a burden. Honestly--this place was exactly what we hoped it would be. It was clean, accessible, and so comfortable.

Very nice cottage within walking distance to a private beach. Beach are we could utilize was smaller than I expected but very nice. Great relaxing stay on the cape!

This property was a great rental for our family. Plenty of beds and space. There is only one bathroom, but with the outside shower it was never a problem. It was a great location to the beach. We were able to go down as a group and some kids head back to the house when they needed a rest. Very close to restaurants and bars. The house was super clean and ready for us when we arrived. We would def rent again.

Very easy

Great house and neighborhood! This property had everything we needed and then some! We can’t wait to go back next year.

Overall, the house was great! Easy access to a private beach, West Dennis public beach, a little playground nearby and the Sand Bar & Lighthouse Inn. The private beach area that you could actually use was smaller than advertised because two large beach front homes have exclusive rights of most of the beach, however it was enough for our family. I would definitely rent here again!

While I spent a good hour cleaning and organizing the cabinets upon arrival, the location was good. House fit our needs. I would suggest adding mirrors in bedrooms. There is only 1 bath and even with a small family of 3, hogging the bathroom is no fun - having the ability to get dressed and makeup in another room with a mirror would help.
