Perfect house, central to homes of 3 previous generations
We had a nice stay. My husband's family had a summer cottage with 8 acres on Lake Wequaquet from the 1930s to 1970s (we got married there) and my in-laws had a home and antique clock shop/Nantucket Basket business on 6A for many years. This house was perfect for us, 3 generations ages 17-74 and 3 cars - central to everything. The air conditioning was nice except a bit cold in the rooms it was in (66 degrees). I turned it up a bit a few days into our stay and down before we left. The ones who slept in the basement found it too hot and humid. We did a lot of cooking and eating there before and after we went off for the day. We had homemade chowder that could have used a ladle and we left it, not knowing how to dispose of it. Our biggest problem was coordinating people and cars for day trips. We had a wonderful stay in the house.

Great house for us
This house was a beautiful house. Everything was so clean. It's a very spacious house and fit everyone very comfortably. The kitchen had everything you needed. We also grilled outside. It doesn't have cable so we had to go to a restaurant to watch the Celtics playoff game (which they won in the final second). There's a jacuzzi but it's not for guests to use. It was a perfect location for us because we had our boat at Barnstable Harbor and that's only minutes away. We would definitely stay here again.
Quiet neighborhood; welcoming and knowledgeable host; short drive to beach and close to village Main Street with cute shops and great coffee.

Nice rental no so great management company
We arrived on Thursday in the evening. We realized there was no internet connection.
On Friday I got the runaround with the management company. They did not answer my call and trying to text them was only frustrating. Why should we spend our vacation trying to get the WiFi working? We checked out on Monday and had to go outside each time we needed to use our phones for anything. We were promised a 25.00 per day rebate for the inconvenience but if you need a reliable internet connection, this was not the case for us.
Otherwise the home was just as expected. We enjoyed our stay despite the inconvenience.
