Past the living room, the sleeping quarters of the home can be found. The first bedroom you’ll see is a cozy room with a large closet and beachy decor. Down the hall, an expansive primary suite, with king bed and en suite full bathroom, complete with jacuzzi tub, is a great place to catch some Zs.

Outside, a private backyard welcomes you to relax under the stars. Sit on the back patio around the fire pit, or let your pup run around in the fenced in yard.

Red River Getaway
We loved being able to walk down to Red River beach multiple times a day! The house is very cute, large bedrooms and the fenced-in yard was great for our dog.

Disappointed by end of the week
At first, check in was easy. The host accommodated early check in which was great. As the week progressed however, we noticed a significant ant issue throughout the house and the screens on the doors were poor quality which led bugs in. We were very frustrated by the end of the week.

Great beach access
My husband, myself, two kids (6 year old twins), and my mother-in-law stayed here and it was a great fit for our beach location. It was a quick walk down to the beach and we enjoyed how easy it was to fit a beach walk into our day after a full outing. This is our first time in Harwich (we usually stay in Chatham) and we will definitely be back.

Perfect location
A wonderful location! Walking distance to beach and center of town a short drive. The hallway carpets need some repairing and a small ant problem in one of the bedrooms. Overall a lovely get away cottage.
