Perfect spot for families

We were three generations for a family vacation. Kids 2-14. This house was perfect. Literally walk out the door to the beach so no packing up and driving. The house had enough room for everyone to be happy- quiet space on third level for the little ones to nap, bedroom with private bath for us old folks! House very well supplied. Dean and Vida Lovely and responsive.

A beautiful place!

Our family (9 adults, a four year old, and an infant) stayed here for a long weekend. The house was lovely and had plenty of room for us to gather together, or find a quiet place to read and think. But the location right in the water, was the most spectacular thing! We watched boats, played in the sand and water, it was great. No one wanted to leave !

Great location, and home-owners were super nice. Place was well equipped with what we needed; only disappointment was that it could use a good cleaning. Maybe it was just the end-of-season blues. But we had a wonderful time together as a family.

Great Vacation

We were looking for a vacation this year that was low key but in an area that still had lots to offer if we decided to venture out. Scituate and this home delivered big time! We spent a day in Boston, but other than that, we stuck close to the home and the lovely little towns of Scituate and Cohasset. The house is stocked SO well, every normal household item you’re used to having is available, which was awesome. The house was exactly what we needed and the fact that it is right on the water/beach was amazing for us. Could you find a more luxurious house? Yes, but it met our needs very nicely and let’s be honest, you don’t need opulence to have an amazing vacation. We spent 95% of our time outside and exploring. We loved swimming, catching crabs, finding cool rocks, flying kites, taking walks and runs down the beach. It was awesome to get to connect with our boys without a bunch of distractions. It’s a trip that we won’t soon forget because we were able to focus on being together and spending quality time without our very busy schedules getting in the way. Thank you Scituate for your quaint beautiful rest and relaxation. Thank you Dean and Vida for sharing your great home!! We hope to come back in the future and I would without reservation recommend to others.

Great spot right on the beach

Great stay for 5 adults! Being right on the beach, the house is raised on posts so you’ll go up a bunch of steps to get in the front door. Then, it’s another set of stairs to the first level with bedrooms. If you struggle with stairs, renting a house further from the beach might be better for you. But this beachfront location is terrific if that’s what you’re looking for. This house is more toward the end of the beach, which we liked. It felt a bit more secluded, and we didn’t have people hanging out in front of the house constantly. Obviously, it’s fine to encounter other people when you go to the beach, but it was a bonus that most people set up their chairs and beach toys for the kids a little further down the beach and not in front of where where we were staying. The main floor has the living rm, kitchen, dining rm, a 1/2 bath, laundry room, and an outdoor deck facing the beach w/ 2 tables and plenty of chairs. The 2nd floor has two bedrooms and two full bathrooms - one en suite; the other in the hall. The third floor has a large space that is a bedroom/living room combo and another full bathroom. (See the listing for other beds from sofas.) This house was great. It is “lived in,” as this family has owned and enjoyed it for years. But it is clean and has everything you could need, including lobster pots, which we used for a great feast! The owners are friendly and helpful - they let us check in early, and gave us a tour of the house. Great experience!!

Wonderful family gathering

We enjoyed our stay very much with family celebrating our granddaughter's 2nd birthday. The house was perfect for our family - my husband and I are not yet retired, so having the third floor to ourselves was perfect - balcony looking out over the water, private bathroom and a desk for us to spend time working. Falling asleep and waking up to waves crashing was awesome. Kitchen was well stocked - we were able to prepare meals easily. Thank you to Dean and Vida who were wonderful hosts, quick to respond to any questions we had.

About the host

Hosted by Dean and Vida Johnson

This beach house was a replacement for an early 20th C cottage that disappeared in the great Blizzard of 1978. In 1980 we moved back on the lot and built on piles. I am a retired environmental planner/urban development consultant; my wife teaches Russian at Tufts University. We have been in Cambridge since the early 1960's. We share this lovely getaway with relatives from California.

Why they chose this property

A cousin at Harvard Medical School found this beach in 1964 with his three boys, and he purchased the original cottage there. The family has enjoyed this getaway ever since. We also appreciate the fact that we are less than an hour from Cambridge/Boston.

What makes this property unique

Great beach walks; digging clams; great variety of seascape and beach;
