Lakefront Cottage with Kayaks



The Space:

Tucked away in a charming Cape Cod neighborhood, this classic 2BR cottage sits on the lovely Mashpee-Wakeby Pond, which is the largest pond on the Cape and has phenomenal Bass fishing (contests are held here). It is also a 10-minute drive to Mashpee Commons, a quaint shopping area with restaurants, a movie theater, and grocery stores. Spend afternoons swimming, paddle boarding, or kayaking in the crystal-clear freshwater lake just steps from your front door. Three kayaks are provided. Or rent a boat and spend the day fishing, then tie off at the dock that can accommodate up to a 19’ vessel. A boat ramp is located nearby. After a fun-filled day, have dinner on the screened porch before enjoying an evening of stargazing in the large backyard. The updated cottage offers all-new furniture and bedding throughout to ensure your comfort. A light-filled and spacious open living area has a comfy loveseat. Gather around the TV and watch a movie or enjoy a game night with your favorite people. The 120-square-foot screened porch provides a fantastic spot to spend time with friends and family and to spend lazy afternoons reading or taking in beautiful lake views. Prepare your favorite foods in the modern kitchen, fully stocked with all the cooking gadgets you might need. Expansive counters offer ample space to prep and a bar provides a spot to perch while dinner simmers. When it’s time to eat, call your crew to the dinner table for a family-style feast. If you’re accompanied by tiny travelers, a child-size table and chairs are conveniently located nearby. The sunny primary bedroom includes a comfy queen bed, a dresser, and a TV, while the second bedroom provides two twin-size beds, a fan, and a dresser. The bathroom features a spacious walk-in shower. Pack your Frisbee because this backyard has plenty of room to play. Walk down the stairs to the shared dock and spend the afternoon on the lake (three kayaks provided), or kick back in the sitting area created especially for stargazing. Take a 10-minute drive to Mashpee Commons, and visit local favorite Bleu, an upscale French eatery with a welcoming vibe that pairs innovative spins on bistro classics with a curated wine list. Drop by Mashpee Mini Golf for a few rounds with your party. Surrounded by trees and twinkle lights, the friendly crew and affordable prices make it a great time for kids of all ages. There is also whale watching at Barnstable for your enjoyment. Things to Know The maximum number of guests that can stay at this home is four.

    The cabin was nice as well as the kayaks and fishing. We had two full days there and on the second day the Saturday after the 4th the homeowner who also lives on the property which we were not told had her maintenance/landscape crew come on our cottage with ladders blocking the door and in the kitchen window so they could clean gutters and used a leaf blower to clean so they could install mulch around the house while we were having lunch so we could not use the property. They offered us a late check out the day before this occurred for $35 we asked them to waive the fee for the inconvenience and they denied us and because we asked them to waive the fee they childishly removed late check out option altogether for us. We haven't received any type of apology and were told a manager would contact us but that never happened

    We were not very happy when we stayed at the Cottage on the Lake. The cottage was nice, but when we arrived it appeared it needed a good cleaning. There were musty smells and smell of mold when we walked in. The advertisement stated there was air conditioning. When we arrived, the unit air conditioners were sitting on the floor in the bedrooms. Correspondence was a bit delayed. Finally a family member installed them in for us the next evening. A member of Vacasa came 2 days after we had been there to insulate around the air conditioners. The screened in porch, which was the main reason we rented this cottage, was very dirty. We tried to clean what we could so we could sit on it. The porch was very peaceful and quiet in the morning. It was wonderful to hear the birds and see the lake in the morning. We were a bit disappointed with there being no welcome coffee available for the morning. We got in very late the night before and unable to go to the grocery store yet. We know that it was not listed on the amenities, but most all of the places that we have stayed at least had a small amount available. There were many chairs around the table that had broken backs and difficult to sit in. I had read a review from 2019 that mentioned the same thing. The view from the cabin was beautiful! The cabin itself was nice. We were very impressed with the improvement of the outdoor steps down to the cabin and to the lake. It was very easy for us to get to both. I'm sorry, but we would not stay here again.

    We absolutely loved our stay. The home is centrally located for seeking adventures throughout the Cape, while also being a peaceful house for those days that you want to stick close to home for a bit of relaxation and respite on beautiful Mashpee Pond. We swam each day as the lake was clear and clean. We will definitely be back!
