Amazing location right on the beach and steps from an adorable corner store/ice cream shop. Brief walk away from restaurants and the light house. The house had some quirks but all of those were more than over looked by how amazing Bob and his family were at making our family feel right at home for the week we were there. We could not have asked for a better week. Suggestions for future guests: The lighter sleepers should sleep in the back 2nd floor bedrooms, closer to the living room tended to hear the carried noise. Yes, there is only seating for 5 people for eating in the house. Bring folding chairs if you need/want more. we have no issue with laps. Yes there are TVs but we couldnt find remotes. But all of the TVs had HDMI cords for easy laptop hook ups. We didnt spend a lot of time with TVs. The Xfinity Wifi was stable and great. The Cell service is not great in the back deck or beach area (not the houses fault, its a beach). Verizon was a problem, TMobile was less bad. Plan accordingly. Bring Sheets and bath towels. Things provided: FULLLL kitchen (including all grilling items, crockpot, coffee maker, pots/pans, cutlery, it was impressive). Also, pillows, comforters, 2 fans in the master, hand towels, and beach towels. also 2 life jackets for the 1 person kayak. Quirks- the light switches dont make sense to most of us, it was a running joke, but thats mostly a new england thing. oh and dont park UNDER the house. its thick sand and your car may get stuck.
Sad to say year #3 has now come and gone. Looking forward to year #4. You all are great, property is great, location is great! We look forward to this week it is such a wonderful time. Thank you!!!
The location of this house is absolutely perfect.
If you looking for a place to stay to look at ocean this place works. The house is showing rental age but works! I am not a fan of bringing own sheets and towels so be aware of that. Little more or different seating on deck would be great - maybe a bar chairs so you can get a full water view. Along with having more tables for eating. We were only family of 4 so it worked but if you had more people there isn’t a lots of sitting and being able to put a plate down. Kitchen was nice and gas stove was very nice. We stayed outside all day so that was perfect and spent a day in Plymouth which was very nice. Again ocean view is priceless
Wonderful location and gorgeous sunrises. Only speed bump was check in as no information was forwarded prior and requests to owner went unanswered. Needed to contact vrbo which came through for us! Overall good experience.
Even with the extreme heat, we were able to enjoy another year at this wonderful property! Can't wait for next year!!!
My family and I really enjoyed our stay! The house was exactly as described and the location was perfect!
I was notified 1 day before leaving that they double booked the week we were there so we were losing a whole day of stay. Bedroom TVs didn’t work, the fans didn’t , an either did the dish washer. When it rained the windows leaked we had to make sure we kept cleaning jt up. Screen door broke. Only one king bed the rest is all twin bunk beds. Wish we knew that sooner as well.
The house was great. Only a short walk to downtown to shops and restaurants. Has a great deck with a large outdoor sectional that’s great for relaxing.
The house was clean and bright with high ceilings, and full of light from the wall of windows overlooking the ocean. We loved the open floor plan with a large kitchen island with seats for 5. The living area was comfortably furnished with attractive, easy-to-clean seating. The kitchen was well-equipped with all the cookware and utensils that we needed. One reviewer mentioned that there was no dining table other than the kitchen island. I agree that would be a good addition. We did find a folding table in the closet which we used on the deck, so that helped. Maybe some folding chairs, too? We were there during a period of excessive heat so we welcomed the central air conditioning. It was so refreshing to walk into the house! The a/c did not seem to extend into the bedrooms unless the doors were left open, but that was not a problem for us. One bedroom had a fan which helped. The master bedroom had it's own balcony and we liked to leave the sliding doors open at night to listen to the sound of the waves. There was a large deck with comfortable furniture and a grill. The deck overlooked the beach which was just amazing! It was so convenient having the General Store right across the street....ice cream and candy for the kids, and supplies and adult beverages for the grown-ups. We have rented a number of vacation homes in the past, and there are always pluses and minuses. This one checked all our boxes and more! On a more serious note, the host was kind and helpful when we had to deal with a medical emergency, and we are very grateful. Fortunately, there was a happy ending. All in all, a great vacation in our beloved Scituate. Hoping to return next year!
