About this property

Picturesque Pond Front Property - The Beach Glass Cottage

Come stay at the Beach Glass Cottage! A pristine pond front, completely renovated and tastefully decorated, 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom cottage in the heart of Hyannis. Truly the perfect get-a-way for family and friends. The Beach Glass Cottage is tucked away from the action, but within walking distance to Main Street Hyannis, which features eclectic shops, restaurants, bars, ice cream with mini golf and the Cape Cod Melody Tent is a short walk from the cottage as well.

This delightful cottage features 3 large bedrooms, 2 full completely renovated baths, and an open concept new kitchen with granite counters and stainless appliances. Both queen bedrooms feature brand new Tuft & Needle, top of the line memory foam mattresses with luxurious Egyptian cotton sheets to ensure an amazing night sleep. The formal dining room with a large table that seats 6, leads to a sizable living room with a wall mount flat screen TV above the fireplace. There's a large sectional couch that offers plenty of comfortable seating and sliders that open to a large deck overlooking the pond. A quaint sunroom sits in the center of the house with wicker chairs and a down-feather love seat, perfect for reading or enjoying morning coffee -- this bright and cheerful room will surely be the spot to gather after a busy day. There is also a large side yard with horseshoe pit, bocce, and badminton. A circle of chairs around the fire pit down by the pond completes the outdoor scene. Unfortunately, we don't allow any parties, weddings, bachelor/bachelorette, birthdays, showers, graduation, or pets.

Ferries to Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard are a short hop from Main Street. Popular Craigville Beach and Keyes Memorial Beach are 1.5 mile away, beach sticker included (for free parking)! See a free baseball game featuring the Cape League, almost every night of the week in various towns. The Dennis Playhouse and Cotuit Center for the arts produce broadway caliber shows all summer long. You absolutely cannot leave the cape without a whale watch expedition out of Barnstable Harbor or Provincetown. Guaranteed to see lots of whales!

Enjoy all Cape Cod has to offer, making memories that will last a lifetime. Surely you'll want to return to Olde Cape Cod!

Relaxing winter getaway

Our stay was perfect! We loved the location. This was our first getaway since our baby was born in October. We were looking for a quiet place to relax for a few days with my visiting mom and sister. The kitchen had all the tools you need to cook a nice meal, there were lots of games, and the location was close to town and to some nice beaches.

Girls weekend

It was everything that was advertised. The decor was simple and clean and matched the style/vibe of the house. We thoroughly enjoyed the inside and the outside of the house. Even though it was November and we couldn't have a fire in fire pit ( Massachusetts safety officials have a ban on outdoor fires right now) we enjoyed sitting outside bundled up for coffee in the morning and watching the sun set on the pond in the evening. So relaxing and beautiful. Perfect place to stay. Are already talking about renting again for a weekend in the spring.

Great Cape Cod Get Away Cottage

My sisters and I absolutely loved everything about this cute Cape Cod cottage! The decor was just our style and we all felt right at home. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were very comfy and there were lots of options for us to hang out and knit! The canvas bag Maureen left for us was a thoughtful welcome gift and we enjoyed the peppermint patties too!

Outstanding Cape Cod home

This home is far superior than any of the other homes I’ve rented through VRBO. First, the home is extremely clean and in pristine condition. We loved the charm and warmth of the home. The living room was comfortable and inviting with lots of Cape Cod beach décor. The bedrooms were cozy and had more than ample blankets and pillows. And the kitchen was the best equipped and very organized, making it easy to find what we needed to prepare meals. There were little things, too, that were impressive to me, such as the little guest soaps, shampoo and body lotion in the bathrooms, giving me that B&B vibe. The owner also had a charging station available for various types of cell phones, ipads, computers, etc. Also, there was no expectation that we strip the beds upon leaving, making it clear that we were the owner’s guests. The owners of this home went above and beyond by giving their guests the best vacation experience!

Wonderful vacation

The Beach Glass Cottage was wonderful. We loved everything about it. It was immaculate and very cozy inside and the yard was perfect for relaxing and playing yard games. We loved to sit out on the deck and have our coffee as well. Maureen was very helpful and quick to answer any questions we had. We made great memories here and I would love to come back some time.

What an oasis!

We traveled with family for a week in the Cape and Nantucket and were so excited to see how remote and peaceful this area of town was. Not a lot of walkability but with a car or a bike (they provide) there were lots of great places to explore. Many little details that felt like we were in a boutique hotel. Would definitely go back!

Super clean home

I took my mother’s friends for a weekend getaway as a gift to my mother! They had a wonderful time and loved the home decor and cleanliness of the house. One issue that usually comes with lake houses is tiny flies that were every where outside the house, probably thousands of them! I cleaned my car twice and still find that flies a few days later. The inside was so nice to stay and free of bugs :)

Beautiful Beach Glass Cottage

Thank you for a wonderful, relaxing stay. Everything at the cottage is "just right" - comfy beds and couch, dining table big enough for us all to share meals and board games, sun room for relaxing, and serene views over the pond. Everything is squeaky clean and perfectly welcoming!

This Is our second time staying at Beach Glass Cottage. It’s such a comfortable little house. Has everything you could possibly need, close to everything in Hyannis. You’re in a neighborhood but actually very close to the beach, dining and shopping. I look forward to our our next visit.

Thanksgiving at the cottage

We had a wonderful time at Beach Glass Cottage. Maureen and Brian were excellent hosts- they were very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed. The cottage is beautifully decorated and so comfortable and cozy. There are so many thoughtful touches in each room to make for a very comfortable stay. The view out back of the pond is spectacular! The cottage is in a great location- close to anything you need, but feels like a really relaxing retreat. There are tons of games and books and an adorable sunroom with lots of beautiful plants! Just a lovely place to stay! Thank you Maureen and Brian for sharing your beautiful cottage and for a wonderful family Thanksgiving getaway- wish we could have stayed longer!

Very happy with this lovely cottage

My three daughters and I choose a place each fall to meet for a Mother-Daughter weekend. Initially we thought we'd go to Martha's Vineyard for the day but decided against that. Really just wanted to hang out together. We might have hiked,but the weather on Saturday was very rainy. Shopped in Wellfleet and Chatham. lunch at the wonderful PB Boulangerie in Wellfleet. Don't miss it. The cottage is tastefully furnished, well equipped, comfortable. We have absolutely no complaints.

Pristine beach house

Must have been one of the cleanest properties we've ever stayed in--everything was sparkling, and very cozy. So many romantic Cape Cod touches in every room. Comfortable beds and furniture in both the great room and sun room. Deck was well appointed with perfect furnishings and view of lovely pond, and the very large yard afforded so much privacy and quiet. Location was perfect, very close to main street with great shopping and dining, and the harbor area with more great restaurants--Tugboats was our personal fave. All appliances seemed pretty new, we especially appreciated the ceiling fans--kitchen well appointed and it was nice to have the gorgeous dining room as well. Overall a 5-star property!

What a great cottage! It looks as though it was professionally decorated and accessorized. How many rentals have you been in that have a Bosch dishwasher? Maureen & Brian’s attention to detail is excellent. We wanted for nothing. So peaceful sitting on the back deck. Looking at the tranquil pond was heaven.

Why they chose this property

Cape Cod is one of the most beautiful places we've ever lived. Once over the bridge you'll feel like you've stepped back in time . Peaceful and serene the property sits directly on a peaceful pond yet is in the heart of West Hyannis. With amazing beaches and restaurants its a place you'll want to return again and again.

What makes this property unique

Amazing views from the back deck of Fawcett's pond with cooling summer breezes off the pond everyday. Fantastic wildlife and birds right in the heart of Hyannis! One of a kind property with a huge private yard including a fire pit and horse shoes, badminton and volleyball. Listen to the music from the Melody Tent in the evenings.
