Cape Cod sunshine
Very peaceful location but close to grocery store! The location was ideal for us to explore Cape Cod. The kitchen had plenty crockery and cutlery so no need to run the dishwasher every day. Would highly recommend it.

Perfect little lakeside stay
5/5 except confusion on listing regarding need to rent linen or bring your own. Whoever is managing the listing clearly doesn’t know there are linens there to use. Would have created a lot less stress and packing issues if the info was correct.
