The house had everything we needed. We loved the large kitchen and the large porch. The location is close to great restaurants in Harwich and Dennis. We did not have great weather but we did a lot including the Seal Watch, A trip to the Vinyard, minature golf, bumper boats and go carts. We are looking forward to staying here again next year.
We had a group of 14 with 2 families. There was enough room for all of us. It would be nice if there was one more shower with that many people. The house was charming and the yard was fabulous. We played volleyball, whiffle ball, lacrosse, football and really enjoyed the huge yard. We were greeted by wild turkeys 2 days in a row. It was a great place to stay for our large group & Stephen was great to work with.
overall it was a great stay beach was close and stuff in garage was very helpful. Mattresses some were like boards guests had hard time on twin beds and downstair bed was hard to sleep on. kitchen was good pots were old adequate rooms although furniture needed updating nice yard and furniture and great shower outside shower door down stairs needs lock thank you
We had a great experience. One minor issue with a blown fuse that was promptly resolved by the owner. Wifi connection was lacking and freezer door was a struggle to open but great space both indoors and out. Tight on bathrooms as well (11 of us, 3 showers, 3 bathrooms) it's doable but tricky. We purchased a parking pad for the week which was 65 dollars, I would definitely recommend that as it saves money. Just be careful that you go to the right beaches (we choos harwich beaches but ended up at Dennis by accident!)
Positives: Really nice large kitchen allowing multiple users at the same time. Spacious house for large group with a lovely yard for children to play in. Nice location with a short ride to the beach.
Negatives: Although, the king, queen and first floor double mattresses were comfortable, all the other beds were not. Guests complained of difficulty sleeping on them. Also, the screens on the porch need repair.
Overall, we really liked this house. The only reason we would not rent it again would be the uncomfortable sleeping conditions.
Great location - near all. House is older - but has some great upgrades and has a good layout for a large group. Easy 1 mile walk or drive to Pleasant Beach. 20 mins to Bayside beaches for gorgeous sunsets. 45 minutes to great dune walk in Wellfleet and beaches of Orleans. Chatham is also nearby. Downtown Harwich is small but has a couple of good restaurants. We did not venture into Dennis/Yarmouth much - though we heard the newly opened Music Room is great.
The house was very comfortable for our extended family. The kitchen and eating areas were perfect. Kitchen was modern - well equipped. The living room and sun porch had plenty of comfy seating so we could spread out and be together! Morning coffee on the porch was lovely. Brand new baths and outdoor shower were very nice. The yard was the best! we played corn hole, bocce, badmiton, frisbee, can jam and sat around patio at night. Plenty of space between us and neighbors so we didn't feel like we were bothering them with our vacation 'spirit'. It was nice to have the garage space to store beach chairs, etc when it rained.
We were initially surprised/disappointed that we had to rent blankets - but Los Lobos rentals was awesome and it was easy - and actually quite nice to know that the blankets were freshly laundered! We also rented chairs, bath and beach towels, sheets. It was worth it!
Some of the beds were very uncomfortable (1 small double + all twins). Maybe bring foam toppers if you care a lot about this. Would be great if they could be replaced. The Queen, King and 1 double seemed okay. Also - the shower situation is interesting - 1 full new bath up + 1 shower stall down in very small area. It worked out just fine - but was interesting to have shower in such a small space and without sink/toilet (which are in another small room next door). For most part, people used upstairs and outdoor shower instead - which worked fine. WiFi/connection was slow for some of us. I had to take 1 work call here and it was spotty.
All in all we really enjoyed the house and had a great week. Thank you.

A wonderful place for a large family to stay. Plenty of room. Short drives to Dennis, Harwich Center and a five minute walk to the beach.
This is a special property - beautiful New England house with many bedrooms, lots of space for congregating inside and outside - love the enclosed sun porch. Modern kitchen and comfortable. Huge lawn for larger family gatherings. Walking distance to the beach. Just a perfect stay.
We had two families with adult children spend a great week here! The common spaces are huge, especially loved the screen porch and the enormous yard. Quick drive or a bit of a walk to Pleasant Road beach, which was beautiful and never over crowded. Only catch was the bathrooms: there is one beautiful full bath and a great half bath upstairs, and the outdoor shower was great. Downstairs there is a very quirky split full bath situation with a toilet/ sink in one room and a very small stall shower in another. We made it work with 14 people. Would definitely stay again, had a great week!
This house was perfect for our family of 12! We were worried the house would have issues since it was half the price of others of this size, but there were none!! The new kitchen and master bathroom, plus the outdoor shower made this charming old new england house very functional! We had easy beach access, loved the ping pong and foosball as well as all the yard games! It was helpful to have lots of sitting areas and a variety of bed sizes for our group of all ages. And our teens were happy with the wifi. Most beds were very comfortable but we bought a pad for one of them. We would definitely stay here again.
There were nine of us in the house for a week from 17 to 86 and we all had a wonderful time. The house was beautiful and big so we could all be together or apart when we needed to. The house was clean and close to everything. We loved the sun room, especially! Stephen, the property manager, was very helpful and quick to reply to inquiries. I would definitely rent here again!
The house was a perfect home away from home for the week. The most important things for me when renting houses are clean feeling bathrooms and kitchen and strong air conditioning...and the house had all of these things! The slip n slide for the kids in the garage was an unexpected surprise they are still talking about. Thank you, Stephen!
The house is adorable - old and cute with renovated kitchen and baths. The yard is enormous and the many kids in our group loved it. Beaches weren't too far, only wish we had known to get a parking pass as all offices are closed and we couldn't get one while in town. Loved the house and Steve was lovely to deal with !
Second time at this property and the remodeled rooms of the house are beautiful. Large enough to accommodate multiple guests. Perfect location on the Cape
Property is well kept. Owner is easy to communicate with. The house had plenty of room for 4 families to feel comfortable. Kitchen/dining room was great space to be a central gather place for the family. plenty of parking and about 1/2 a mile walk to pleasant street beach.
Myself and a team of teachers along with our families traveled to the cape for a week of research and fun. The house was great for a large group of people. The property was clean and nicely furnished The property managers were very attentive and responded quickly to any questions
The property was very nice, met the needs of our large family. Plenty of room to hang out, indoors and outdoors. Kitchen was well-equipped and could easily handle our home-cooked meals. This said, I felt the property manager could have been a bit more customer-friendly. This is a ‘bring-your-own-linen’ place, a fact not mentioned anywhere on the website. We found out upon reading the contract that was sent after we sent in the first deposit. Not being used to this set-up, we called the manager and his first short answer was, ‘there’s no use arguing about it’. We were not arguing, were just trying to understand. Then we called a couple of days later about something related, his answer was, ‘I already told you about it’. A third time, we called to inquire about something in the evening, the manager was very short, and said, ‘this is my dinner time and I don’t like being disturbed during dinner hours’. We were taken aback by this, but were well into our booking and proceeded with it. I must add, In the end, once we were there, the manager was ok with our calls and queries. We’ve never rented from a manager, we were used to dealing with the owner directly, so this took a little getting used to. And we don’t have any bad memories of the place. I would even recommend it to people looking for a large space.
Highly recommend!! Great house, great location and realtors are pleasure to deal with
We stayed for a week in July 2019. The Murrays were an absolute pleasure to deal with. The yard is enormous and perfect for families with active children. The oversized kitchen is updated and a perfect gathering spot. The screen-in porch was also one of our favorite gathering places. Walking distance to Herring River.
