About this property

Peaceful Cottage with relaxing vibe in family friendly neighborhood

Welcome to the Mermaid Cottage! Enjoy the two bedroom, 1 bath cute Cape ranch which sleeps 4. The master and spare both have comfy Casper queen size beds . Relax in the large backyard with a good book while gently swaying on the hammock or grilling and eating on one of the outside patios. Enjoy a relaxing outdoor shower after a fun beach day. The house is comfortable with all updated furnishings, hardwood floors, stainless appliances and granite countertops. The cottage is fully air conditioned for those steamy summer days. Basic spices and paper goods (TP, papertowel, plastic bags etc.) provided.

No need to bring your beach chairs or even beach toys! The house is fully equipped- even board games and paperbacks for a rainy afternoon. Bring your bathing suit and beach towel and enjoy the close local beaches.

The house is located in quiet Seacoast Shores neighborhood which borders the Childs River and Waquoit Bay. There is a public boat landing with open ocean access or you can put your kayak in at one of the association entry points. Conveniently located approximately 5 miles from downtown Falmouth beaches and 4 miles from Mashpee Commons. Close to shopping, movies, beaches and the wonderful bike paths.

Beautiful Home

This beautiful home is hugely underrated in it's marketing. It was beautifully decorated and clean, clean, clean! We literally wanted to take the entire home with us when we left. It looks like it was newly renovated. Nice location. Not too crowded with barely any traffic.

Family vacation with 2 toddlers

We really enjoyed our stay in this cute little cottage. My youngest is in a pack n play and it was tight to make that fit but we made it work. I loved that there were toys, books, and a booster seat for kids!

Great getaway!

The cottage is well-appointed, very clean, and located in a quiet neighborhood. Big, private backyard for relaxing, dining, and grilling. Convenient location to drive to biking trails, beaches (or short walk to the small community beach), restaurants, etc. Communication with the owner was excellent! We loved it and enjoyed our stay!

Fantastic Cape home!

We just transplanted from Texas and this was our first trip to the Cape! What a great place! Clean, organized and super easy to communicate with Kristy! Awesome beach equipment supplied including beach towels, chairs, tent, wagon. A fantastic cozy beach walking distance from the house! We will be back!

Loved Kristy’s Cape House

We had a great week on the cape at Kristy’s home! Thx Kristy! Small as described however they have a modern design with a cathedral ceiling in the living room which really opens up the space. AC mini splits work great! A pleasant surprise was the outdoor shower. I must have missed that on the listing. Everyone wanted to shower outside after the beach, perfect! Kristy thought of everything, plenty of towels etc...Short distance to Martha's Vineyard Ferry, and great restaurants downtown. Our favorite afternoon activity was bringing chairs to the Old Solver Beach after hours for the beautiful sunset. parking lot is open/free after 5. The water was warm and sand soft. Bonus "no risk of sharks :-) Thx again Kristy! Phil and Family ...

Beautiful Home

Overall this was such a great stay for myself, my husband and our 6 year old boy. This is in a residential area, but there was really so much do to within 15 minutes. We really enjoyed Old Silver Beach, which was just under 20 minutes away and required to pay $20 for visitors on their public beach. It was so beautiful there and such a wonderful beach for little kids. There are wonderful restaurants around and tons of mini golf and ice cream 😊 this really was a family vacation for us. The house is beautiful and the owner really has thought of everything. I was so impressed with the level of thoughtfulness on what she provided. I think the only downfall for me was the shower. I’m very tall and I generally don’t do well with small stand up showers. HOWEVER…there is a wonderful large and roomy outdoor shower. Our son LOVED IT!!! I would highly recommend this house for your next vacation.

We had a fantastic stay at this cottage in East Falmouth. It’s a small place, but they have made good use of the space. The kitchen is gorgeous and the outdoor space is excellent for grilling and hanging out. It had everything we needed!

Perfect from start to finish!

My husband and I rented this property to enjoy a summer week on Cape Cod and we could not have been happier! The property was adorable, immaculate and had all the little extra touches that made it a home away from home. The location is excellent. It's in a safe and pretty neighborhood and so close to many areas to explore. We wouldn't think twice before renting it again. The communication with the host was great and everything you need to know is explained in full detail. Loved it!

Wonderful short vacation

We were so happy to see how clean and well-appointed the house was when we opened the door. The yard was spacious and kids loved the hammock. Location makes it a good base for the western side of the Cape and the ferry to Martha's Vineyard is just 15 minutes away. Would surely stay here again.

Perfect Cape Cottage

Kristy's cottage was just perfect for our family - two adults and two young children. It had everything we needed and some, was sparkling clean, and so charming. The large backyard was great for our kids to run around, and the outdoor dining and lounging set-ups were awesome. The local beach was a short walk and perfect for a laid-back morning. And the location was just great - in addition to Falmouth beaches, we took a day-trip to Martha's Vineyard, which was so easy. And Kristy was super responsive when we had questions. It's a really lovely property.

A perfect Cape Cod Cottage

This Cape Cod Cottage was perfect for our family of 4. The neighborhood beach was walkable and the house had everything you could need for your beach trip. My kids loved the hammock. The wifi worked great and the kitchen was lovely. The house was clean and modern and felt just like a beach cottage should. Falmouth is a great Cape town and we hope to return next year! Thank you.
