Clean and comfortable

We were in town for a family wedding. We ended up with 13 adults in this home, but never felt cramped or on top of each other. So many places to get privacy, and also a big great room to gather together at the table. The yard’s shrubs give it privacy. We played corn hole and had a fire in the fire pit. Walked to the beach, the oyster bar, played mini golf, ate ice cream. Everything was close. It is a very welcoming home. Loved the charm, but not too fancy feel. Lynn is a wonderful host. Responsive and on top of things. She will make your stay comfortable. My family would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful family beach vacation

The property was great for our extended family vacation. We had 9 adults and 6 children and there was more than enough space. The outdoor spaces (front and back yards) were great for the kids to run around and play games. And the owner was very responsive, which was great! We would definitely recommend this property for larger group vacations.

Great week in spite of rain

We were 16 adults from 3 families that have vacationed together for 30 years. This house accommodated all the parents and their adult children with significant others. There were beds for all and the house was well equipped for large groups. Lynn was a wonderful host and communication was excellent! I highly recommend this house and hope to return again.

GREAT host - great family space

House was super clean and just so great for 3 generation family vacation. There were 15 of us ranging in age from 11 to mid-70s. Totally unique space. LOVED the open living space that we could enjoy the out of doors inside with the open wall option. Fire pit in the front yard made for great family memories and s'mores. Having two kitchen areas worked great for keeping meal prep separate from packing beach lunches and snacks. Everything we needed was provided for beach fun and for meal prep and cleanup. Lanette was super responsive to any questions, and went above and beyond throughout our stay. House has so much character since the main house was built in 1800 something. Love the coastal decor and air conditioning in every bedroom. The young men loved their detached bunk room. We made good use of the porches and deck just off the kitchen for meals and relaxation. Sundae School - the walk is totally worth it. Only ice cream spot that I've ever seen require a local cop and a number of parking attendants. The Hot Fudge Sundae is out of this world with real whip cream... Beaches on the Cape - we enjoyed several but Mayflower/northern side is worth getting up early to get a parking spot for - the sand just goes forever at low tide. Buy the town of Dennis Beach sticker at the townhall for $90 since daily beach acces is $30/day. Also, don't miss the rail trails - fun for the whole family.

Quintessential Cape Cod!!

Our family had a great time!! We easily made meals for our crowd and enjoyed gathering around the table in the converted garage. We loved having two refrigerators. The outdoor shower was a great retreat after a day at the beach. Lots of memories were made and connections strengthened while having morning coffee on the front porch.

Great Family Space

Perfect space for a large family get together with kids and adults. Lots of room to sleep, lots of bed combinations and also hang out/eat together. It has great, private outdoor spaces to play games, have a fire, drink coffee/cocktails and eat. We loved that people could easily spread out but also easily be all together. There was an awesome outdoor shower and house was equipped with truly everything you need to cook (even lobster pots and pizza oven) and outdoor games/beach gear. All week long everyone kept remarking what a great setup the house was for for our large group (12 adults and 4 kiddos). Walking distance to Sundae School, Wolfies Bakery and Sea Street beach was perfect. Sea view park is also walking distance with a playground for the kiddos. It is also a close drive to many other great spots. Lanette was a great host, making sure everything was all set up for us. She was very easy to get ahold of and proactive about guiding us on places to go and things to do. It was an awesome place we would definitely recommend and book again!!

Return to Family

After the last few years was COVID, it was great to have a big family trip with all of the extended family (17)! This house was perfect for our group. My younger family was able to utilize the loft above the garage on one side of the property while the rest stayed in the rooms on the other side, but we were all able to convene in the space below. The location was perfect place for a jumping point to all of the beaches and activities that the mid-Cape has to offer. It was only a 25 minute ride for a day trip to the outer Cape. Thank you Lynn for having everything that we could have asked for! Kevin D and family

Great location but needs TLC. The interior was very cluttered and key items such as the garage door and gas grill were not working properly. Too much old furniture cluttering the house. Grill was dirty, difficult to use and needs replacing.. Front porch needed a sweep and cleaning. For rental amount it was lacking.

Perfect for extended family vacation!

We had 3 families and grandparents and there was plenty of room! Everything was clean, linens were ready and kitchen had multiples of anything you could possibly need. Front and back outdoor spaces- great for teens playing football on one side and quiet conversation on other :) Biking/walking distance to beach and walking distance to Sundae School. I had a question upon arrival and Lynn got back to me immediately- she's so friendly and professional! Loved it!

Great for large family

Lynette was a wonderful host, even checking in to make sure we had everything we needed during our stay (the house is equipped with everything you need for a stay!). Our trip was to celebrate my fathers 70th birthday and was very conveniently located to golf, beach, Fishing, restaurants, and the Harwich port ferry which we took to Nantucket for a day. We enjoyed lots of family time in the yard and around the fire pit. My father had a very memorable 70th, thank you!

Fun and quirky house

Lots of pros. Lanette the owner is warm, communicative, and very helpful with tips about local spots and any questions you have about the house during your stay. Lots of beds for people to sleep. Fully stocked kitchen (complete with lobster pots and outdoor grill/pizza oven), outdoor shower, clean property, games, dvds, tvs, etc. The listing and photos are very true to the house- not fancy and the space feels a little cramped but cozy and comfortable overall. I would say it is a good value. We wouldn't stay here again really only because we didn't love the neighborhood (more densely populated) and closest beach. A very solid option though for a big family/friend getaway to the cape.

Great Family Reunion Spot

We enjoyed a week at this property and couldn't have been happier with how it served our needs. We had a large group spanning many ages, but with the layout of this Cape house we never felt too crowded or uncomfortable. The conversion of the garage to a living space is a game changer and both the front and back yard offered ample gathering space. The house is walkable to several spots (convenience store, Sundae School etc.) and a .75 mile walk (sidewalk the whole way) to Sea Street Beach. The house is well appointed with cooking pots, pans, utensils etc., refrigerators, parking space etc. Would highly recommend staying here for any large group (family or friends) trip.

Great for home for multiple families with kids.

Lynn was excellent! She purchased a mattress and sheets for the onsite pack and play. Great communication through out the rental process. Great home for multiple families with young kids. We were able to set the sleeping arrangements so the kids wouldn't wake the kid-less adults up in the morning. The converted garage into a family living area was another unexpected surprise. We had the door open all day with no fear of bugs getting inside. The short walk to Sunday school was traveled multiple times. Thanks for the great stay Lynn!

Family reunion

This was a great place for all of us to meet. My 2 sons and there family, one of my daughter-in-laws sister was her from Malta and my sister and her daughter from Maryland. We have not been together since before COVID started. There was enough privacy for each family to have and large spaces for us to be together. Private back and front yard for the kids to play. Would recommend it to anyone. The only down side is the staircases for the 14 month old, they are a little steep. We are considering going back next summer.

Never again - this place!!!

while my family and I had a good time in Cape Cod, we were left disappointed and frankly, misled by the overall quality of what was advertised of the listing. the house was a lot smaller than it looked on pictures- I understand that is subjective - but something to be aware of when considering the price. in addition, when we first arrived there was areas that were dirty and unkept. What's most disconcerting is that a few weeks later after our stay I got contacted that some items were missing(stolen) and broken which first was simply untrue, second some of the items(furniture) they claim were missing was never even there/or was already in poor condition.

Massive Cape cottage

We stayed here with our neighbors- combined we had 4 adults and 6 children. The property was so large we didn’t even use the adjoined cottage. Located within walking distance to Sunday School for ice cream and Sea Street beach. Everyone loved the large gathering area in the garage. By far everyone’s favorite feature was the spacious outdoor shower. Looking forward to spending another vacation at this property next year.

Great Family Getaway

Much needed getaway, lots of space for my parents, siblings and our kids. Lynn was really helpful with suggestions for what to do in Dennis Port prior to arrival and answered questions quickly for the few we had when we were there. The house was nice, old New England charm. Very cute cabin attached with several bunk beds but it empties into backyard and not the house. Kids would have loved to sleep there but felt they couldn’t given their age range (1,4,7,7,11). That being said, there was not a lack of beds and we all fit comfortably in the house. Wish the house had central air, with the humidity this time of year, the window units had a hard time keeping the main areas cool. The great room had a large garage door-type opening which was great at night to let fresh air in and get a view of the backyard. Plenty of parking, any kitchen utensil or appliance you might need was available. Fire pit great for roasting marshmallows and hanging out. Overall, everyone had a great time.

About the host

Hosted by Lynn

Our family has been going to Dennisport for 3 generations. We plan on retiring in this house down the road. We are a casual family that appreciates summers at the Cape and family values. Although I consider Dennisport my home, we live year round North of Boston.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this home because of the location to the beach, town and because it's in Dennisport. I feel at home here because that's where my parents brought us every summer. Dennisport offers beaches on the ocean side and beaches on the Bay side of the Cape. This house is an old Captains house and was built in the late 1700's. Registered as the oldest home in Dennis Port It has all the charm of a typical Cape Cod home, the kitchen and bathrooms have been updated. Very solid quiet home. Because its the Cape and an old home we cannot prevent possible dampness or a fly, mouse etc from possibly getting in the house. We treat the house with preventive measures, but cannot guarantee no bug will enter the house, especially through the great/garage room. Its still a garage!
Please no parking on the grass we have an irrigation system.

What makes this property unique

The farmer's front porch is the place to relax, read a book, play a game or enjoy a beverage. Many homes at the Cape have very little land to them, this property offers a lot of quiet and privacy. We also loved how many people it will sleep, perfect for multiple families. 3/4 of an acre and plenty of space to get alone time. Very quiet rooms. Where do I purchase my beach sticker (not daily passes)?
Purchase your stickers at the Town Hall (685 Route 134, South Dennis), Monday-Friday 8:30-4:00. Starting Memorial Day weekend our hours are Monday – Saturday 9-4 and Sunday 9-12 (yes – 7 days a week).
BEACH STICKER INFO: What are the sticker costs?
Beach Stickers - $50.00 each for resident tax payers
Transfer Station - $152.00 for the 1st and $20.00 for the 2nd - Recycling only - $35.00
Weekly - $90.00 (sticker is valid Saturday – Friday of the week purchased)
Seasonal - $180.00 – valid for Cottage Colonies, renters of 4 consecutive weeks or longer and immediate family members of a property owner (mother/father, sister/brother)
Non-Resident - $360
All Replacement Stickers - $10

Common comments by renters are"the house is much bigger than we expected". If you like new and crisp modern homes this house is not for you. Its targeted to large family groups at a reasonable price. Its not perfect, but we live there and do work on it every year to be sure its safe, clean and affordable!
