Very clean home, walk to the beach, cute shops, large yard
The house is nice and fits eight people, very well. It has two full bathrooms, so two families can easily use one each. It has a large and nice area to socialize and eat. The yard is very large and relaxing. Kids can play or relax on the hammock, while parents can enjoy the shade under the trees. There’s a very new gas grill that we used a lot. Location is great, as well. Supermarkets and ice-cream parlors nearby. The walk to the beach is short, but on the street, so one should be mindful of traffic with young kids.
The house is efficiently laid out - 4 bedrooms opening onto the living room area. Except for the master, which was larger, the other bedrooms are small but adequate. The master bath has a very small shower, small sink and the washer/dryer. The second bath is off the sunroom, away from the bedrooms. There is also an outdoor shower. All were very clean. The kitchen is dated but clean and well-equipped. Generally speaking, the cottage is showing its age, but solid and clean (no bugs!). There are ceiling fans in each room plus extra portable fans, which kept us comfortable. The house is on a narrow, sandy road, about 1/2 mile walk (or drive - $20/day to park) to the beach, which was well-attended but not too crowded. There were 4 beach chairs and a few toys available. The small Weber grill did not appear usable, and the gas grill was dirty but worked fine after we cleaned the grate. A large tornado had just hit the area, so there were trees down, and tree cutters every day (noisy, but necessary and temporary). Otherwise, it was a very quiet neighborhood with friendly neighbors. Close to Rte 28 and all kinds of activities. It worked very well for our family of 5 adults and 1 child - plenty of seating, two TV areas with lots of DVDs from which to choose. It was reasonably priced and in a good location.
Nice older home enjoyed by all of us. The plumbing had some issues but we worked with it. All was clean except the rugs which we understood since the vacuum cleaner did not work properly. Nice location within walking distance of the beach. Quiet neighborhood with the exception of the trees being cut down, wood chipper etc., which we understood since the tornado had gone thru that area the week before. Also, please note the gas grill worked as long as the top was opened. Electric sockets by the couch are not right, so we just didn't use them. We had wonderful weather ourselves and enjoyed our week there.
Tucked away on a little dirt road, near Rte 28. Walking distance to Pleasant Road Beach in West Harwich. Need to cross a street, so keep a hand on the little ones. Big yard a plus.
Vacationed here with younger children and had an absolutely wonderful time. The house is lovely and also very well equipped, the back yard is amazing, and wonderful beaches —both ocean and pond — are mere minutes away. Definitely hoping to come back!
Nice 4 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms, all on one floor. There is a huge backyard with a small swing set and a relaxing hammock. It's a rather short walk to the beach, but not impressed with beach. The day we arrived there were 8 or 9 dead horseshoe crabs laying in a group (man-made arrangement) and so much seaweed between the beach area and the good swimming area. But, there were a lot of people there and there were life guards on duty.
Convinient location, great beach, short and beautiful stroll to the beach. Nice shady yard. Everything you need in the kitchen.
As described. Nine minute walk to a very nice beach. Clean and comfortable.
The cottage was a perfect size exactly as advertised. The only issue we had was the walk to the beach had a busy street to cross and that was a problem. Other than that the cottage and beach were perfect.
