Cape Cod Family getaway

Dennis/ Dennisport at the Cape is a wonderful area to visit and stay. You are close to the beaches and many restaurants as well as sightseeing. The Mermaid house comes with everything you need or want for a vacation house. We loved the comfortable beds , the Out door shower is so refreshing and the fire pit table was fun to relax around and roast marshmallows for smores. Each bedroom had plenty of pillows and blankets. We brought our own linens and towels. The master suite is upstairs with a private full bathroom. It has a King bed with adjustable remotes for increased comfort. Also a mini split to stay nice and cool. We utilized the well equipped kitchen and the laundry room which had detergents and items such a zip lock bags in kitchen that were very useful. Colleen and husband communicated very well with us and we even had the pleasure of meeting them as we left. Every bedroom including the the living room had smart TVs. Overall the accommodations are highly recommended. A quiet location in a safe neighborhood with a loop for kids to ride bikes safely. Visit Breakwater beach and Mayflower Beach ,skip the big beaches like “Nauset “those have massive stairs 3 tiers which are difficult to navigate with kids and older adults not to mention beach stuff. Keep it simple if you do venture there. Colleen supplies you with a big beach cart and plenty of chairs as well as some beach toys.

Really nice place, well situated, great for families.

This is a great place for families. It is in a safe area, near supermarkets, ice cream, go carts and other things to do. Beaches are only 10-20 minutes away depending on where you go. I think the owners were genuinely thoughtful and helpful in the process and while renting. The home was well equipped and I would stay again. I recommend the home and the landlords without condition. :)

Highly recommend!

Continuing a family tradition we've had for 35 years, our cape weekend for Columbus Day didn't disappoint. The size and layout of this property allowed for both privacy and relaxation as well as great family time in the common areas. The master suite was especially nice as it was upstairs and completely separate from all other bedrooms. Highly recommend!

Kayak trip

We were very impressed when we arrived and entered the house. It was clean, well kept and nicely decorated. The location was fantastic. Easy access to kayak and bike trail was close by as well. The host was very helpful and got back to me in minutes with any questions. We are looking forward to coming back next year.

Spacious home with great extras

Our family had a great stay. We chose this house for the location, bikes, and kayaks and it didn’t disappoint. The home also had plenty of wonderful extras like the fire table out back and the board games inside. The road was quiet but central to lots of wonderful restaurants and a short drive to several beaches. We would stay here again.

Great Cape Vacation!

We loved our week stay at the Mermaid house! The rooms worked well for us, our two kids, their grandma and uncle. There was plenty of space for each of us to have our rooms and we made good use of the outside table with propane fire in the evening. The kids loved the outdoor shower. The location was great and the house is on a very quiet road that was easy for us to take walks on or have the kids ride their bikes (it makes a nice loop). We loved being across from Swan Pond and made use of the kayaks a few times. Beautiful pond. Colleen was very responsive too. Very happy with our experience.

Mermaid vacation

The house with all its amenities was exactly what we had hoped for. The neighborhood provided a loop for casual biking for the kids. The house setup worked great with our three adults and three almost teens. Relaxing was easy at this location. Easy trip out for groceries up 134 or jump onto 28 right around the corner for a trip to Cuffys. We enjoyed Corporation Beach for a day and West Dennis Beach most late afternoons. The only thing I missed was my morning stroll to the ocean with my coffee but the easy access to kayaking on Swan Pond and river made up for it.

Guests from the West

We liked the place a lot. Good space and convenient location. Our only suggestion would be to provide linens and recycling. I’ve never had a VRBO require guests to bring or arrange for their own linens. This is especially taxing on guests traveling long distance like we did. If the additional costs were just added into the cost of the rental I don’t think anyone would hesitate renting this place for a few more bucks but wouldn’t have to take the time to call, rent, and arrange the linens service. We even had to make our own beds and after traveling 3,000 miles and arriving late in the evening this was not something we were very excited about doing. Lastly, not to have recycling is very odd and creates a lot of additional, unnecessary trash.

beautiful property filled with all the necessary amenities for a wonderful time away with family. Loved the back yard and fire pit. my only disappointment with this rental is that the cleaning fee was nonrefundable. in my years of rental on the Cape cleaning fees were refundable.

Perfect getaway house

This house was great for our group of 5 adults. The house was exactly like the pictures and more. There was plenty of room, comfortable beds, ample outdoor space, and it was in a quiet neighborhood. Colleen was very responsive to our questions before and during the stay. It is the perfect distance from beaches, restaurants, and shopping. Thank you for sharing your home!

Immaculate, lovely home across the street from a pond. Kitchen is well stocked with the necessary dishes, pots, pans, utensils to cook meals. There are plenty of beds for 8 guests and comfortable seating in the living room and office. There is central air conditioning in the house which made it comfortable. My 3 adult daughters, son-in-law and 2 young granddaughters all enjoyed staying here. The host provided a welcome book and pamphlets of things to do on the Cape. I highly recommend staying here!
