Oceanfront Home Great For Families! Near Amenities, Canal, & More!

*AVAILABLE BY THE WEEK ONLY FROM SATURDAY TO SATURDAY*

Come spend your stay or vacation at our house that overlooks beautiful, peaceful, serene Buzzards Bay. Come try your luck fishing from the backyard/beach or schedule a fishing trip. Collect shells, find clams and oysters, and watch the Ocean as you sip your coffee. Kayak around the bay or head down the street to play Mini-Golf or eat at a family restaurant-- there are so many options for FUN while staying at this well-cared for home. There is also a large back yard for children to play. Enjoy the picturesque sunrise over the bay every morning, and take a stroll down the beach to the tiki bar at night. From the back yard, this home reminds the soul of a tropical oasis and is only an hour from Boston.

On the first floor, there is a lovely dining room, kitchen, family room, full bathroom, and 2 bedrooms-- One bedroom has a Queen-sized bed and a bedroom that has 2-twin beds as bunk beds, which can easily be put together as a King-size bed.

Upstairs there is also a full bathroom, a King-sized bed, a Queen-sized bed, and a small bedroom with a twin bed. All bedrooms have cable access with the exception of the small twin bedroom.

We love this place so much that we have 3 homes in a row! We stay in one and rent the others out; leaving many options for you as a vacationer! Ever want to bring the family on vacation, but give the in-laws their own place to sleep? No problem! Please feel free to ask about our other property if you are interested in renting multiple homes for the same week!

Complimentary Wi-Fi is provided. This home does not have cable TV. The TV's are equipped for you to access streaming services from your own personal account.

Parking is available for 3-4 cars.

****We do own two houses next to each other if you'd like to check the other out-- VRBO LISTING # 781351 (3 beds). If you have a large group or two families, we can rent them simultaneously giving a place for the whole family.

Great location!

Easy access to big beaches and ferries. Little ones enjoyed the splash pad/playground down the street, and built many sand castles and splashed at our own beach. We could see the railroad bridge from the yard. The house was clean, the kitchen had all you need, and the beds were comfy.

Perfect for families with little kids

Private beach and large grass area kept two 6 year olds and a four year old happy and exhausted. Use of two kayaks kept adults on the go. Owner was helpful and responsive.

Perfect location

We came to the area for our son’s graduation from Massachusetts Maritime Academy. The house was in a perfect location with a beautiful view of the water. We had several family members with us and there was room for everyone. We planned to grill for dinner and found the grill was missing a propane tank. We messaged the owner and they had one for us the next day. Communication was easy and always received quick responses. Recommend for large families coming to the Cape for a summer vacation.

The Right Place with Plenty of Space.

The five bedrooms were a perfect fit for our family. We had plenty of room to spread out. Everything we needed was included except personable items. We stayed in January so while we all spent some time on the sandy little beach it wasn’t our main attraction. Due to the cold we spent more hours in the windows overlooking the bay. The ducks and geese were a favorite attraction. The backyard was very comfortable to sit in looking over the water and relaxing. The small neighborhood was wonderful for walking as there was no traffic and it loops around. Multiple amenities and attractions are only a short distance away.

Family beach vacation!

We had such a great time staying in this house with my sister in law and her family. My other sister & brother in law stayed next door. There were 12 of us total. The house was nice and clean and plenty of room for all. We had 4 adults, 4 kids in the house. The backyard was amazing where we spent a lot of time in the yard playing games and relaxing on the chairs. Everyone swam and used the kayaks. My 5 year old was asking to go back before the week even ended. Thanks Ralph!

What a wonderful property! Beautiful overlook of Buzzards Bay and the shore area is perfect for young children. Home is beautiful, clean, and well maintained. Owners are extremely kind. Everything on Cape Cod is a reasonable drive from here. Highly recommend!

Beautiful location, clean house, great host!

Ralph was a wonderful host, quickly answering any questions we had prior to renting, as well as during our stay. He was very friendly and welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed. Upon arrival, the house was extremely clean and the fact that linens were provided was a plus! The house provided plenty of space for a large family. We traveled with my parents and 2 children; we all had a bedroom in which we could sleep comfortably…and still didn’t use 2 of the bedrooms! It was great that each bedroom had some drawer space and a place to lay/open a suitcase. The view of the bay and the spacious yard was amazing. It was nice for the kids to be able to go crabbing or fishing and we were able to watch them from the yard. We also enjoyed some kayaking on the bay and appreciate being able to use the kayaks! The kids loved it! We had a wonderful time and hope to come back again! Thank you Ralph for being such an amazing host!

Great family time on the water

My wife and son and I rented this home over an extended Memorial Day weekend last year (2016) Not sure what happened to my post when I tried to review this last year.... posting problem could very well have been on my end. Being familiar with the general area over the years, I was pleasantly surprised with the exact location. Ralph was very helpful and welcoming and made sure we were all set to enjoy our time. My son and I fish, so being right on the water and having that access was priceless. The proximity to the bridges, restaurants, stores, gas, etc, makes this a great location to efficiently use vacation time too. The house was in great shape, clean and spacious, the backyard and entry porch spread things out even more and made us feel very at home. Good times for sure...

It is a lovely year round home in a beautiful location

The landlord is a very pleasant and friendly person that makes sure his property is taken care of. We didn't call him over any issues(that were very minor) but I'm sure he would have responded and resolved any problems. These happened after only one day and we were able to fix them right away without bothering him even though he was right next door.. The property was spotless which was a big plus. We had a few mix-ups before checking in but they were resolved easily. The negatives would be the check-in - check out. I don't mind a check in of 4:00 which means most of the day is gone but I felt the check out time of 9:00 AM meant another day gone making it really a 6 day rental. .. Most of my family had to leave the night before so we could leave the property spotless (which we did). We didn't ask to use the kayaks that were mentioned in the listing .and didn't think the gas grill should be used. These things were not deal breakers and did not diminish the .wonderful time spent there. This property should be at the top of the list for anyone wanting waterfront and a great location.

Cape Cod Family Reunion

We rented this home for a mini family reunion. We ranged in age from 8 months to great grand-dad at 85! It was a great place to let us adults rest and relax, but close enough to everything for the kids to go out and enjoy themselves too. We brought our Kayaks (but there were some there to borrow also). Being in the Bay it was a great place for the young kids to play on the beach and not worry about large waves. The back yard was very large, and where we spent most of our time. The house slept 10, but we had extended family visit on one or two days. It was a week full of wonderful memories. The absolute only thing we could have asked for was more parking as it was a bit tight. (4 cars max), but Ralph (the owner) was willing to work that out with us too. The owner and his wife live two houses down, so if you needed something, like a lobster fork, they had it for us. Over all we had a great time, and would love to go again sometime. Regards, The Drainville / Hough / Ronan / Skow & Saylor families.

Wonderful place and location!

My husband and I spent a delightful week at this property. Upon arrival we were greeted by the very wonderful host/renter and shown around the large house. It included great kitchen with high quality amenities, a separate room with washer/dryer (again, high quality), bedrooms with comfortable beds, huge flat screen TV with surround sound, plenty of air conditioning, nice bathrooms, a private, outdoor shower (one of my favorite things) and a spectacular view. Everything very clean and spotless. Walking out into the yard and sitting in the Adirondack chairs you realize that the beach is right there! At your feet! I really enjoyed swimming there. There are numerous good restaurants, a Walmart (for all the things you forgot or didn't know you would need) and also a large grocery store with a good fish department that has lobsters, scallops, etc. (And they will boil the lobsters for you at no charge). In the opposite direction is a local seafood store with a small restaurant attached. That place had wonderful fresh oysters. All within minutes away. This place is wonderful and so is the owner!

About the host

Host profile image
I own and manage some apartment buildings in Somerville and Cambridge and fell in love with my Summer home & Buzzards Bay. I 'caught the bug'! I love having guests stay and am happy to provide suggestions about fishing, food, FUN, family activities of course (which there are many). I love the Bay, and, even more, I love sharing it with people.

Why they chose this property

This property has a large yard to play, a nice stretch of beach. I raised a family on the ocean, and enjoy everything the ocean has to offer: fishing, boating, water skiing, etc!
It's a great "get-a-way" that's close to major routes and fun activities.
