Second time perfect like the first

As the title says, this was our second stay at the house. The views are top notch, you can’t beat it. This year we used more of the amenities- like the kayaks and the fire pit. The house is well stocked for both inside activities with the two tv rooms, games and puzzles. The kitchen is has everything you’ll need to make a full meal or heat up anything you brought. A great place to stay.

our all time favorite

Everything about this property was fantastic- the home itself is beautiful, inviting and comfortable, well appointed, and the location is fantastic. Gorgeous water views, a short walk to the local market, and easy access to the walking/cycling trail. Each year our extended family gather to celebrate our father/grandfather's birthday and it can be challenging to find a location that is accessible to everyone, large enough for our family and dog friendly. This year we struck gold- couldn't have hoped for a more perfect place, and the weather was unexpectedly warm and sunny for this time of year. Thanks so much to the hosts who maintain this very special place.

Snug Harbor Indeed!

Our family enjoyed a week at the beautiful Snug Harbor home! Our group included my husband and I, our two adult children, our daughter's husband, their 2.75 year old daughter and our family dogs (thanks so much for letting us bring them!). The weather was perfect despite all of the potential for bad weather from Hurricane Lee. Our family enjoyed the kayaks, the hot tub and the yard that was so perfect for flying kites. We also enjoyed the neighborhood (so close to the West Falmouth Market, Falmouth and Woodshole), the nearby beach, and the bike trail. A perfect, comfortable vacation spot -- well stocked with plenty of paper products and access to laundry facilities...and an unbeatable view that will be prominently featured in our Christmas Card this year.

gorgeous house and property- 5 stars!

Harbor House made for an absolutely wonderful multi-generational family vacation in West Falmouth! Grandparents, parents, and 5 grandchildren (ages 1- 7) all enjoyed the beautifully decorated home, fishing/swimming/kayaking in the harbor each day, the hot tub, games on the lawn, s'mores at the fire pit and many family dinners at the big dining room table. We enjoyed bird watching and the incredible sunset from the porch each evening. The house was very well stocked, clean, and provided everything we needed for our stay. We appreciated the comfortable beds, beach towels and chairs, and easy walk to West Falmouth Market/Village Cafe/Eulindas Ice Cream. Easy bike ride to Chappy beach and the bike path. Wonderful vacation thanks to this gorgeous home and thoughtful host!

Heavenly!

Wonderful place to spend quality time with family - plenty of room inside & out. Craig was very responsive to one small problem & fixed it. Location was perfect. We were concerned about parking, but that turned out to be ok for 5 cars. Everyone enjoyed the house, location, and spending time together. Would definitely book again.

Beautiful Sunsets

Harbor House feels like a home away from home! We love the location and always look forward to returning! This was our 3rd visit and now we are booking our next stay! We are always looking for wonderful places to stay where I can take sunset pictures and hear the relaxing ocean waves. For these reasons, this is one of my favorite spots! The host made our stay very comfortable! There was great communication and attention to detail. Our stay couldn't be at better and we cant wait to return!

Five Star Stay!

Everything about this house was fantastic It is obvious that a lot of thought and talent went into the design and every little detail of this house The only downside is that we enjoyed it so much that we found it hard to leave when it came time for us to go. The consolation is that we took lots of good memories home with us. Harbor House is definitely a favorite stay of ours.

Beautiful view!

We returned, once again, to this lovely vacation home with the beautiful view! It is in a very nice neighborhood with easy access to a quiet bicycle-walking trail. From almost every window, we enjoyed the peaceful view of the bay and ocean. The decor is perfect for the Cape! The floor plan is very comfortable for any number of people! We especially enjoyed cooking together in the wonderful kitchen, then having family meals while admiring the sunset over the ocean. This is a favorite place of ours! We are scheduled to return and we can't wait!

All of the rave reviews are accurate. We went in March and I loved watching the geese, seagulls, diving ducks and swans in the water. Communication was excellent. Would love to come back in the summer! Very close to a nice beach too.

A perfect school vacation getaway

Wow - what a stunner! This property was perfect for our three-family group of adults, tweens/teens, kids, a toddler, and a dog. Our host communicated proactively right out of the gate, answering the few questions we had before we even had time to ask them. We appreciated the flexibility the floorplan allowed for. The home seems designed for multiple groups and uses, with a good mix of gathering spaces and secluded spots. It is also well-stocked with pantry, laundry, kitchen and bath supplies as well as a good mix of games, puzzles, books and movies including many crowd-pleasers. Beds were comfortable (though a note that the twin bed in the single room felt a little short to our teen, who's over six feet -- something to keep in mind if your crew includes tall folk). The hot tub and firepit both saw plenty of use during our February stay. We wished we could have stayed longer as the area, while quiet by summer standards, still had plenty to do (playgrounds, beaches, hikes, bike trail, town, etc.). And, of course, the views from the house can't be beat. Our thanks to Craig for making this lovely home available and for the thoughtful attention to detail throughout. This home really shines. We hope to repeat our stay next year!

Our Stay at Harbor House

Our family had a wonderful stay at the Harbor House. The property was absolutely gorgeous, clean, and very well maintained. The house was well stocked with everything that you could need plus more. We definitely over packed kitchen supplies not knowing exactly what would be available to use at the property. Craig was easily reachable and responsive whenever we had a question. Our family would definitely stay at the Harbor House, or any of Craig’s properties again (:

Ideal house and location

We had a tremendous experience staying at the Harbor House for a week. The location was amazing from both the downstairs and even more so from the upstairs bedrooms. The house was immaculately clean on our arrival and things were laid out so we could settle in quickly. The house has plenty of space, plenty of towels/utensils/glasses/plates, etc for 10+ people. The layout of the house provides space for groups and smaller areas for people to have some privacy and quiet areas. Along with that, whenever I had a question, the manager responded quickly and thoroughly. 100% the place to stay.

Wonderful view!

We enjoyed staying, yet again, at the Harbor House in order to take in the view of the beautiful bay and feel at home in this lovely house! Even though it was raining for some of our stay, we were able to take some fabulous photographs! We enjoyed walking on the nearby trail and at the beach. We went to the restaurant called Ella's for fantastic food. We purchased yummy gluten free treats from the quaint, general store. This is, by far, our favorite vacation home and we look forward to returning! Thank you so much! Kathy and family

Amazing home!

We are a family of 8 who rented this amazing home for my son’s wedding weekend. To say the house is amazing is an understatement. We have rented many homes, but never one that was so thought out for guests. Every detail was thought of to make our stay so easy. Every time I went to look for something in the kitchen it was there. The beds were comfy, view was simply amazing. We weren’t able to find time for the hot tub with the wedding festivities, but I am sure that would have been awesome. We didn’t want to leave. House is magical. Loved how they kept the old features and mixed it in with the new . We would love to visit again in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Craig Lyon

While still in high school, I designed and built my first vacation home on Cape Cod. Later in University, I studied architectural preservation, with an emphasis on Cape Cod's famous Shingle Style home. In the early 90's, I began designing and building some of Cape Cod's most iconic homes in this style. Since, my travels around the world have inspired me to fuse the traditional Cape Cod style with subtle international influences and inspirations. My design personality takes advantage of this global perspective to include the finest comforts from all corners of the world. It has become my passion to find clever ways to subtly incorporate these finer influences into the warm and cozy style original to the Cape. Having rented my homes since 1992, I take very seriously my guests' experience. For example, Ocean House in Provincetown (HA 122422) is one of the most loved rental homes on the outer Cape. I am so excited to now open Harbor House, my newest home, for reservation. Don't wait, be one of the first to make your reservation and enjoy the art of living inside this wonderfully beautiful home.
