Absolutely Perfect

Our son and wife and 19 year old daughter joined us on the Cape for 5 days in June and we rented this home for them to stay. They loved it and thought it was absolutely perfect. It was comfortable…had everything and more that they needed… was close to everything….and communication with the owners was outstanding! Our daughter-in-law even made the comment that she could live there full time!

Great cape cod getaway

We had a beautiful week at this cottage which was very clean and well equipped. We enjoyed having the beach chairs and umbrellas. The beach is very close by, 15 minute walk and the parking pass was very convenient. The beach was large and not overcrowded and had life guards on site. The area is great with cute shops in Hyannis.
