Perfect Cape Cod Escape

We are already looking forward to returning to this lovely quintessential Cape Cod home. It's located in a quiet neighborhood, surrounded by stately homes, with a wide variety of birds and wildlife. Very close to restaurants, CRISP is fabulous. Dowses Beach is stunning, white sand and crystal clear water. The house has all the comforts of home, we especially enjoyed the backyard, which includes an outdoor shower, plenty of seating and a fire pit. We highly recommend this beautiful home for your next vacation on Cape Cod.

Great area, house needs some TLC

Perfect location. House not cleaned on arrival but owners did their best to help, but we were already settled in. Carpets need to be shampooed or replaced. King bed very uncomfortable. Need new mattress. Kitchen well stocked. A few things were broken or not working. Nice outside area,

This place is lovely

This house is spacious and clean and has excellent amenities. Jillian was super accessible and the house had everything we needed. The garage was full of things for the beach and the back yard is beautiful. The hot tub was clean and well kept. We were 11 people, three of whom were kids and the bedrooms and communal space fit us all very comfortably. We are so excited to hopefully book the house again next year.

Wonderful Cape Cod Rental

Nice home in a nice neighborhood! Great for a family with children. Home was clean and in good condition. Easy to communicate with owner. The outdoor shower was also a hit. A bit disappointed that the upstairs bedroom was not central air conditioned like the rest of the house, as kids may have a hard time sleeping with the noise from the window unit. Would definitely rent this home again!

Beach vacation

We were two families vacationing together. We had a great time exploring Osterville and Hyannis. Dowses Beach is a beautiful warm water beach and it has a jetty for fishing. Jill's house was well equipped and she was very easy to communicate with. Overall a great experience!

Wonderful home away from home!!

We were thrilled with this rental. It was absolutely everything we expected and more. The kitchen supplies everything you would need to cook! The rooms are very spacious and very clean. I would recommend this house to everyone! Location was key to where we wanted to stay! The neighborhood was very cute! We had nine in our group and we were all able to sit around the island in the kitchen. The beds were comfy and again everything was so CLEAN!!

Beautiful property where you can create long listing memories with friends and family. The amenities are amazing as well as the extras - beach pass, bike, speaker in the house, etc. The owner (Jill) was on her phone for me at any time if we needed anything! Thank you so much Jill, will definitely come again!
