Falmouth, Massachusetts
Enjoy all that Cape Cod and Falmouth has to offer. Our cottage is a 5-minute walk to Bristol Beach, which overlooks Vineyard Sound and Martha's Vineyard, and just a bit further to the world-famous Falmouth Heights beach. Take a dip in the bay at the end of the street (Great Bay), launch your kayak, take a jog along the scenic walking path overlooking the bay, or just watch the sun rise from the back deck over your morning cup of coffee.
We are just 3 miles to beautiful downtown Falmouth, with amazing shopping and restaurants. Bristol Beach is .3 miles from the cottage, an easy 5 minute walk. A little further (.5 mile) walk to the world famous Falmouth Heights Beach, the start of the Falmouth Road Race, and the July 4th fireworks! Another .5 miles to board the Island Queen Ferry to Martha's Vineyard.
The house is equipped with an outdoor shower, full kitchen, washer & dryer, window AC, clean towels and linens, a big-screen TV with Roku, a bookcase full of classic novels and novellas, a fully furnished deck out back, and much more. Perfect for couples and families alike.
Gordon's place was perfect for our family of three. The location is excellent--Great Pond is at the end of the road and Bristol Beach is a short walk away. Everything else you need requires only a short drive. Some nice amenities include a nice deck on the back of the house, washer/dryer, and a fully stocked kitchen. We hope to stay there again!
Property was perfect. Very close to beach and had all the amenities I needed.
New fridge, new gas grille, and an additional window AC this year are great additions. Thanks Linda! This was our second year. Awesome weather and very relaxing stay. This cottage has everything you need. The beach umbrella was better than ours so that was a nice surprise. The only negative was the cleanliness. The house was noticeably dirtier than last summer. My wife was disappointed to find dirty dishes and flatware in cabinets so we washed everything before using. Bed sheets were clean but comforters, bath rugs, etc should also be washed at least every few weeks because they get musty and dirty with renter traffic. Good cleaners are very hard to find. We are also owners of a summer rental property so we are probably focused on these things more than some people. Overall we had a great time. This is a great little cottage in a good location if you like to be walking distance to the beach and town.
We were very disappointed with the cleanliness of the property. I contacted vrbo and spoke to someone who recommended we take and send pictures, which we did. I contacted the owner about the shoestring used as a handle for the toilet and it was repaired immediately. The microwave was filthy and greasy on the outside-- owner said it is to be replaced--still thought it should have been clean. There was mold and mildew in the shower and on the bathroom window. Front porch was in bad shape and we didn't feel using the grill was something we wanted to do. The reviews on the property were very good, which was puzzling to us, we don't feel we are that picky, but it honestly was one of the worst properties we have rented. We appreciated that the owner was easy to reach and that she did address our concerns regarding the toilet immediately. The cottage has some real potential-- it is a short walk to the beach and close to shopping. We liked that we had Wi-Fi and use of a washer/dryer. I hope that the owner can correct the issues we experienced.
Great property in a great location. Its about a five minute drive to Main St. and a five minute walked to an amazing beach. The house is definitely tiny but perfect for a small family! They have a cute recommendation book that is so helpful for finding restaurants and things to do. I would definitely recommend this property!
Our stay in Linda's cottage was very nice! The cottage is a mirror image of what is advertised on the website. Despite the cool, rainy weather, we made the best of our time there. The cottage is very close to the beach and a convenient 10-15 minute drive to take the Island Queen Ferry out of Falmouth over to Martha's Vineyard. The downtown of Falmouth is very nice with cute shops and eateries. We also explored in Barnstable and Wellfleet. Our stay was short but sweet; I'd definitely visit the area again!
Very nice location, quiet street as well. The house is a typical cottage, beds are comfortable too.
This was a great rental for many reasons. The owner is very helpful, provided area information, a welcome gift and offered the cottage earlier than expected. Responds to any inquiry in a flash. Two beaches are close by. Great area to walk to and from the cottage, just a mile from the Falmouth road race finish line. Great restaurants within 5 minutes and stores close if anything is needed.
We loved it! Cute, clean, short walk to beach. Perfect for vacation - love the little back patio, so nice to use the beach chairs and umbrella. Already looking forward to returning. My husband, three and a half year old son and I were very comfortable here.
We really enjoyed our stay in this sweet house in a great location on the Cape. Lots of things to do in Falmouth and a nice location for visits to other parts of the Cape with good suggestions from the owners. Well maintained home and a good size for a small family- easy rental and communicative owners.
