About this property

Charming 2 Bedroom Cottage in Historic Yarmouth Port

Charming 2-bedroom cottage on a large 1/3 acre lot on a quiet side street near Gray's beach. Gray's Beach has a huge sandbar at low tide, playground, picnic area, and public restrooms open during the summer season. It is also known for its boardwalk out over the marsh where people gather to watch spectacular sunsets. The cottage is walking distance to a town playground as well. Our cottage has a fully equipped modern kitchen with plentiful dishes, glassware, utensils, pots and pans, and a variety of spices for cooking. We manage this property ourselves and use it periodically, so it is much better equipped than corporate managed vacation rentals we have experienced when we have traveled elsewhere. People love the sunroom with its gas fireplace which is very cozy in all seasons. We also have a functioning wood burning fireplace in the living room. Our back yard abuts to conservation land, providing a peaceful setting for enjoying the deck, stone patio, Adirondack chairs, and Weber gas grill. The downstairs has a bedroom and full bathroom for those who prefer to avoid stairs. The upstairs has another bedroom and half bath. A separate nook upstairs has a single futon suitable for a child or as a reading nook. The cottage is located in a beautiful residential area of larger year-round, owner-occupied homes and is located in the Yarmouth Port historic district. It is just one block off the historic 'Captain's Mile' featuring dozens of elegant sea captains' homes. and near to the charming town of Yarmouth Port shops and restaurants. This property is suitable for small families or two couples since the upstairs has its own lavatory, and a door at the top of the stairs for privacy.

Added Pleasure!

Staying at this beautifully decorated cottage made the trip much more fun. Everything we wanted was in a walkable distance. Visited the Edwin Gorey House, a walk through the local cemetery (1771 sites),the Parmassis bookstore, the Royal II Restuarant, the Herring Run, so many beach walks. And so much more that we will have to go back!

Charming cottage

Nice cottage with a very well equiped kitchen. In a quiet neighborhood with a few close beaches. Mayflower Beach is the best but get there early if you want parking. The only negative point was the matress that was unconfortable.

Wonderful seaside family vacation

We spent four nights at Pat and Bob’s adorable Cape Cod cottage and it was exactly what we needed. There was lots of space for our family (two adults, a four year old, and a two year old) and we were close to grocery store, coffee shops, ice cream etc. We enjoyed biking around the quaint, beautiful neighbourhood and spent days at nearby beaches and whale watching! What an amazing and magical part of the world. Thank you for sharing your property with us! We hope to be back!

Wonderful cottage!

We loved staying at this cute cottage. Loved eating breakfast at the table in the sunroom. It was well stocked and very clean. The location was centrally located and perfect for exploring Cape Cod. Everything was so nicely decorated. The owners were very responsive to our questions. My only suggestion is it would be nice to have a full bathroom on the 2nd floor with the bigger bedroom. Otherwise, perfect!

Perfect size and perfect location for a pair of Cape lovers

My husband and I have stayed at vacation rentals around the world, and one of the biggest challenges is finding a place that's feels right for two. This charming Cape was just right. We slept upstairs in the roomy bedroom under the eaves and used the downstairs bedroom as a dressing room. The cottage was immaculate and charmingly furnished with great wall art, lots of books, a well-equipped kitchen, and the overall felt like a home -- exactly what we're looking for in bypassing the sterile feel of most hotels and motels. And it is located in the historic heart of the Cape, just off the Old King's Highway -- Route 6A -- one of the most beautiful roads in the USA that winds along the north shore from Sandwich to Orleans, passing dozens of historic homes, historic inns, historic shops, etc. A short drive to the north or south brings you to miles of beach at Sandy Neck or Mayflower Beach, and from the Barnstable town dock you can head out on a whale watch or pick up a rental kayak to explore Barnstable Harbor. There are a handful of restaurants and shops within walking distance of the cottage, as is the boardwalk over the marsh at Gray's Beach. In short, this cottage was a perfect size and a perfect location for a pair of Cape lovers.

Adorable Cottage

I stayed for a week with my husband and two small children. The house was exactly how it was pictured-cute Cape cottage with nice flat yard for kids to play in. The street was idyllic and very quiet, with quick access to a few coffee shops on 6A or short drive into Dennis for more restaurants (10 mins). Gray's Beach is a little over a mile away and parking was $20 for the day. It is a beautiful little beach, great for little kids and has a nice Boardwalk to walk down too. Communication with the owners was great--very fast responses. The kitchen was well-stocked and the outdoor shower was helpful since there is only one shower in the house. The sunroom was a lovely place to hang out as well!

Cape Cod Getaway

Lovely beach house in a great neighborhood off 6A, our favorite part of the Cape. The house is beautifully decorated with everything you need to feel at home. ( you do have to bring your own bed linens and towels) The weather was perfect so we walked to Gray’s beach each morning & sat on the patio to have breakfast. We enjoyed the sunroom & the gas fireplace in the evenings when the day cooled down. Pat was very easy to communicate with & very friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed a much needed getaway!!

Yarmouthport Treasure

The cottage was all it was advertised to be and more. My wife and I are in our eighties, and the place was exceedingly easy to live in for a few weeks. It's located on a very quiet street, close to everything we were in search of, our friends at Kingsway just up the street, food shopping, and good restaurants. Their were bedrooms on the first and second floors and at our age we settled on the first floor. The bed was a bit small and would be much more attractive it was a bit bigger but we managed, But everything else was just ideal, a lovely sun porch where we ate all our home cooked meals, a very complete kitchen and outside deck. One issue is that this is an historic area that doesn't permit cell phone towers so reception is nil but there is a house phone for local calls that we used to contact nearby friends and restaurants, All in all a wonderful trip and we hope to be back next year. The owners were extremely accomodating and friendly too!

Perfect Place to Get Away

My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful week in this cozy cottage on Cape Cod. It is in a great location on the Cape, within walking distance of Gray's Breach - a picturesque spot to watch the sun set - as well as the shops and restaurants of Yarmouth Port. The house was spotless, with a well-stocked, updated kitchen. Thank you Pat and Bob!

A perfect get-away!

My husband and I were in need of a change of scenery being months long into the COVID 19 pandemic. This house was perfect for us and we enjoyed our stay. It was clean, comfortable and we loved the neighborhood! In the mornings we enjoyed walking to Grey's Beach and taking advantage of the boardwalk. The made a few meals at the house (the well stocked kitchen made this easy and enjoyable!) and also enjoyed some of the great area restaurants. Don't miss going to dinner at the Old Yarmouth Inn!! The house was a perfect, typical cape style house and we loved every minute of it!

Absolutely perfect!

From the beginning, my communications with Pat were so easy and friendly - I knew I'd found somewhere special to stay on the Cape! The house was exactly as described and depicted - and even more well-stocked than I had imagined! More than sufficient kitchen-ware, a small linen closet with lots of thoughtful touches in case you forget something, extra blankets easily found, hangers in the closet(s). The house itself is in a wonderful location - close by to several areas of interest and easy to hop on the highway to explore more areas around Cape Cod. The sunset views from Grays Beach are so spectacular that each night I went, there were people tailgating! Pat and Bob truly go above and beyond to take care that everything is very well cleaned and sanitized. As well, there are useful instructions throughout the house for various items, which is always very helpful. I couldn't recommend this house enough to anyone interested in staying on Cape Cod - what a wonderful place! Thank you!

We thoroughly enjoyed Pat and Bob's lovely cottage! It is suprisingly roomy, and we spent most of our time inside in their sunroom. Pat is excellent at responding to any and all feedback!

Met Expectations & More

Our stay at the cottage exceeded our expectations. The home was clean and well decorated. The sun room was our favorite and the large yard allowed for social distancing for a family cook-out. The outdoor shower was a much appreciated feature. The proximity to beaches and grocery stores was outstanding. We had a great time!
