Location & house overview

We'd love to host your at our family owned and operated cape retreat.

Our cape cottage is located in Dennis Port, tucked away from route 28 on a neighborhood side street. The house is 7 minutes walking to downtown Dennis Port, where you'll find great ice cream, breakfast, groceries, a package store, pizza, and more. Leave the car in the driveway and walk to get a coffee in the morning or ice cream after a beach day!

Our home is located centrally to many beach options - you'll find great beaches in both directions as close as a mile away (a quick bike ride!). Our location is a great hub to try the 16 different beaches Dennis has to offer with a weekly beach pass. Dennis is known for having some of the most beautiful beaches on the cape - you can visit a different one each day!

Pack light - the house comes fully equipped for family beach days with beach chairs, beach umbrellas, coolers of various sizes, and beach caddies to transport everything on the sand that we provide for your use. Our storage shed is also full of bikes (adult and child sizes), and yard games for kids to enjoy while playing in the yard. There is also an outdoor shower with hot water.

The house is Mid-cape, centrally located to visit many of the other beautiful quaint Cape Cod towns all within a short drive. This includes ferries to Martha’s Vineyard in nearby Hyannis (10 miles from the house) or the ferry to Nantucket (5 miles from the house)


About the house

The house is updated with modern amenities, while maintaining the home’s original cape charm. Enjoy central AC, fast wifi, flat screen TVs, full cable. You can access your own Netflix account or other streaming service on our smart TV or browse the on-demand cable selection. We also have a large DVD collection to enjoy an old-school movie night in our movie theater (on-demand movies and cable are also available). There is parking behind the home in the private driveway for 2 cars.

Enjoy the provided selection of coffees and teas by the bay window drenched in the morning sun or head outside to the two rockers on the front porch to plan your day. The house comes fully equipped with all linens provided, toilet paper, paper towels, and a fully stocked kitchen. The kitchen has all you’d need to prepare a meal for the family or pack lunch for the beach. There is a brand new washer and dryer in the closet of the twin bedroom with provided detergent. Beach towels for the whole family are also provided.


Outside you’ll find a grill and several lounging and eating areas throughout the yard. The backyard is private, surrounded by 50ft pine trees, a perfect place to make smores around the fire pit after dinner or enjoy a glass of wine.

As of 2026, we've added a new front patio off of the kitchen to enjoy meals or have a coffee on our couch in the sun. This patio gets great morning light and shade all afternoon - a great place to hang outside for indoor/outdoor living.


Sleeping

On the ground level of the home, you’ll find two bedrooms and a full bathroom with a tub. The spacious primary bedroom has a king bed and flat screen television with cable. The second bedroom is a bright and cozy room with two individual beds. All linens are provided, you’ll arrive to freshly made beds with clean sheets and cozy blankets. In the living space, the couch pulls out to a queen bed. All linens and pillows for the pull out couch are provided as well.

The third bedroom is downstairs with a queen bedroom and full bath. This area feels like its own private suite. Enjoy our Below Deck feel downstairs featuring port holes in our bedroom with nautical antique touches throughout.

    We had a sister's winter getaway trip to Kate's wonderful home on the Cape. The place was immaculate, beautifully decorated, the kitchen was perfect and the home theater was so fun. Kate is a great host and easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend a stay here.

    My friends and I had a great stay at the Sweet Retreat! The house was a cute, cozy, and spacious beach house. Enjoyed some grilling in the backyard. Location was perfect. Less than a 10 minute bike to the beach and a quick drive to the Sandbar. Thank you so much Kate!

    I have been thinking about writing this review for the entire week of our stay. I shopped through a ton of properties before picking this one and I am so happy with my choice. I have often stayed in rentals where the property in oerson does not live up to the pictures. This property is even better than the pictures. It has the perfect balance of clean, well decorated rental property and a true lived in beach house.My favorite thing about this property is that you truly just have to bring clothes and food. They have EVERYTHING you need for a beach trip. Towels, chairs, coolers, toys, umbrellas, boogie boards, etc. They also had a fully stocked kitchen with a large variety of pots and pans, containers for leftovers, lots of mugs, plates, cutlery, glasses, coffee maker, tea kettle, utensils etc. After staying at some places that have no cooking utensils or Tupperware containers, this was a relief for a family that wants to be able to cook. The theater was also WAY cuter than I expected. The little ticket window and extra decorations like velvet ropes and candy vending machines were absolutely delightful for my children. When I looked closely at the location on the map I was a bit concerned about how close it was to a dollar store and ocean state job lot. However thus felt like a perfectly private location. Our favorite part of each evening was walking around the suburb counting wild bunnies in peoples yard, and comingback for a camp fire.

    Kate’s place was wonderful! She has thought of everything a guest could need to make you feel right at home. Sweet retreat is the quintessential cape cod cottage with everything to make a stay enjoyable. We spent Memorial Day weekend and the location is perfect mid cape to easily access all locations on the cape. The home is spotless, beds are comfortable, and communication with Kate was seamless. We would love to stay again next time we visit the Caoe.

    This is a 10/10 for sure. The house is so well kept and has a lot of unique elements to it - not to mention a nice theater in the basement. One of the best VRBOs I have ever stayed in. You can even walk to grab dinner or ice cream too. If you have a chance to stay here grab this house the minute it is open.

    We had a lovely stay. Did not use the lower level (stairs are quite steep for women of a certain age) but the house is charming. Owner was very responsive and easy to work with. The pull-out sofa was comfortable too.

    Every closet and draw was full. No place to put non refrigerator food away, so kitchen always looked messy. Very little closet space. It was suffocatingly full. It didn’t feel like a beach house. It’s a beautiful house just not for my family.

    Plenty of communication on check in time and offered local suggestions. The home was clean and well equipped. Plenty of beach chairs,spacious backyard with a fire pit we used nightly & a gas grill. Our time was quick but we enjoyed the house.
