About this property
Beach House, located on a barrier dune between the ocean and Great Salt Marsh
The property is located on a quiet private barrier beach with Cape Cod bay in front and the Great Salt Marsh in back. It is the ideal place to watch birds and large ships coming into and going out of the canal. It is located in the historic town of Sandwich, well known for its beauty, historic preservation, Sandwich Glass Museum, and the Heritage Plantation. Decks almost surround the home with beautiful views in all directions. It is part of a single row of homes that stretch along the beach. There are 2/3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, sun room, living room and kitchen. High Speed internet is available as well as Cable TV. Washer and Dryer are on the premises. Ideal family vacation home, casual, sunny, and immediate access to the beach and mud flats.
Please Note: Most guests stay for a week or two. In general a three week rental is the longest rental I will accept during the month of July and August due to the repeat demand on the property. I will consider a monthly rental in June if that is desired. I hope this helps you make the right decision for your family.
Hardwood floors throughout the house, first and second floor.
Some wood ceilings, and tiled kitchen.
Blankets, pillows, linens and towels are provided.
Please inquire about furniture needed for infant if necessary.
Renovations: This property was completely renovated in 2011. The house has baseboard heat and three wall mini-split air-conditioners, one upstairs and one downstairs in the livingroom and one in the downstairs bedroom. The kitchen, bathrooms, utility room and entire upstairs were new in 2011.
The house contains a washer and dryer and a place to fold clothes.
The views of ships going through the canal from the large kitchen windows are great.
The house has been completely re-sided and all new electrical and plumbing.

About the host
Hosted by Laura Wing
I am a descendent of one of the founding families of Sandwich. Sandwich staged a re-enactment of the 1600s in the historic village and my daughter and I joined the fun pictured here with an actress portraying my ancestor Deborah Wing who is on the original list of founding families and the only female head of household. My grandparents had the original beach house built on land that was in the family. At that time there was no running water or electricity in the house. We had a pump at the sink and an outhouse when I was a child. Part of the outhouse still stands near the road and used as a shed now. I am very active in the community and a strong advocate for beach replenishment and historic preservation.
Why they chose this property
The property certainly has been modified over the years and is now a modern home while retaining much of the character of old. The fir floors in the center of the house are the original floors of the cottage and after sanding and polishing are still lovely.
The rest of the house is basically new as of 2011. I spend time myself there in the winter and enjoy the solitude, wildlife, and open skies.

What makes this property unique
The house is situated on Springhill Beach, a private beach close to the Cape Cod canal. You can walk down the beach towards the canal for about a half mile and pass all the homes on this beach and enter into the undeveloped salt marsh of the town. You will have to turn around at the Old Harbor inlet where you will see the well-known boardwalk that crosses over the salt marsh open to the public. The quaint downtown Main street of Sandwich is about 3 miles from the house with easy access to the mid-cape highway to takes you into Boston about 60 miles north of Cape Cod. On week-ends there is train service from Hyannis (20 minute drive) to Boston and back. We are hoping that soon that train will stop at the Sandwich train station. The train travels over the canal in Bourne on its way to Boston. Cape Cod is a vibrant summer community as a whole with lots to do and see in easy reach from the beach house.
