Great location for a short stay

This home was in a great location for us to explore Brewster, the flats, the rail trail, shops, and nearby restaurants. The backyard was fabulous for throwing a ball around and to store our bikes, as well as access to a fire pit for great evenings outside!

Clean place, near CCRT - Bike Path & Breakwater beach

Nice place. We had 4 adults and a teenage stay for a girls weekend. Owners were very communicative. Place was tidy and as advertised. We loved that the Cape cod rail trail was 1/2 a mile away, could have rode or walked over to it but it had a great parking lot so we drove over instead. Breakwater beach a mile up the road and was wonderful (no parking permit required in off season). Overall we enjoyed our stay and would recommend to others.

Ladies 40th Birthday Trip

My friends and I have been planning this getaway for years to celebrate turning 40. We had a wonderful week in Cape Cod! The house is maintained and very clean. With the small but thoughtful touches (like the little soaps in the bathrooms) it made me feel like I was staying at a friends house. I appreciate how the owner would check-in with us and was easily reachable during our stay. The sun room is a great spot to read and drink coffee. There is some road noise at night but having a sound machine helps block it out. We rented bikes for the week from Brewster Cycle Center (shout out to Tyler!) and it was a quick ride from the house to get on the rail trail. It's a 15 minute bike ride to Paine’s Creek Beach-a small and quiet beach with beautiful views. We had a great time on the Cape!

We stayed over memorial day weekend and had a really great time. The house is clean and spacious. We really enjoyed the backyard, bbq, eating and reading outside and smores at night! It's a short drive from the beach (less than 5 min) which is very convenient. Karleen was easy to reach out for question we had during our stay and she made sure we had a great time! Will definitely be renting again for our next Cape Cod vacation!

Location, location, location!

The cottage was in a perfect location on the cape -- close to both 6A and 6 which made it easy to get around to other parts of the Cape. Breakwater Beach was 3 minutes away which was a great place to watch the amazing bayside sunsets. The cottage was clean and comfortable, and we loved the layout. The host was warm and welcoming and was very responsive to our needs.

The house is well furnished and decorated and the kitchen is well appointed. It is roomy for 4 people. Although we could not use the yard because of weather the picnic table .and fireplace certainly looked inviting. We had a restful and enjoyable 3 days.

Girl’s getaway

The house was perfect for our short winter getaway, close to Brewster favorites and not far from Dennis, Orleans and Chatham. Our host was very quick to respond to questions, usually within 5 minutes. Beds are comfy but a little softer than I’m used to. Kitchen is well equipped. Coffee maker is the drip kind, we brought along our own small keureg. There are cozy blankets in the living room. We were greeted with fresh flowers and pretty holiday decorations. We didn’t use the tv at all: played cards and games every evening and laughed together.
