Fantastic lake-side house
We had a great time on this property. If you enjoy fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding and generally spending time in and around fresh water, you are going to like this place. The house is clean and comfortable. AC can come in useful on hot days. The kitchen is well equipped and well stocked. The deck is a strong plus - it is comfortable and has great views. Importantly, the host is absolutely fantastic to deal with.

Perfect for Relaxing
Stayed with my husband and adult daughter. The house is adorable, not to mention clean and well stocked with everything needed for a getaway, from cooking essentials to kayaks! We relaxed on the back deck for morning coffee and meals; sunbathed on the lower pond deck with a good book; and kayaked every day.

Could not have been more perfect!!
What a lovely location! It met our needs perfectly, with a beautiful and tranquil pond-side property and only a 15 min drive to Scusset Beach. I’ve never stayed at a rental with such comfortable beds and bedding! The home was pristine and had everything we needed. We enjoyed morning coffee on the deck overlooking the water, and the little beach area was the perfect swimming spot for my friend’s three-year-old daughter. We didn’t want to leave and we are already trying to figure out a way to come back next year and stay even longer! The owners were very responsive and friendly - we had one minor issue with the grill the first night and it was resolved immediately. Best vacation stay I’ve had!

We loved our stay at this house on the pond. Quiet, peaceful place to relax and spend time with my family. Close to beaches restaurants. House was very nice. We enjoyed spending time outside on the deck and kayaking in the pond. 😊

We had an amazing time at Grandpa’s Cottage. The rental is exactly how it is described and shown in pictures. Very clean and very well stocked with anything you might need which is rare with rentals. Beds are comfortable, adequate seating for all. Grill worked great and the awning on the porch was a savior. Pond is beautiful, serene and clean and we had loads of fun with the kayaks and paddleboard. Very close to local stores and a great seafood market up the road. We loved everything about Grandpa’s cottage!

Cape Cod Tranquility
Our stay at the lake cottage was perfection. Situated privately on Pimlico Pond, this lakeview home surrounded by nature and little animals was absolute serenity and peace. We walked down the pathway from the driveway to find the cottage, a beautiful deck in the back, a fire pit off to the side well stocked with fire wood, a cozy hammock tucked in between the trees, and a private dock with chairs, floats, paddleboards and kayaks. The deck also had a lovely outdoor shower, totally private, as well as a grill and an awning with lights. The dock has lights as well, so when the sun goes down, the dock is beautifully lit up. We felt so welcomed as we entered the home, two mugs gifted to us by our host making us feel so special. The interior was extremely comfortable, large refrigerator, a very nice kitchen with island, lots of storage, completely stocked with spices, coffee, all the pots and pans, fishes, bowls, utensils, etc. There was a Keurig machine as well as a French Press, which was great for us! The couch was very comfortable, and on the rainy days, it was lovely to sit indoors and look out onto the lake, since there were glass doors lining the back of the home so you had a complete view of the yard from inside. There was a TV with all the streaming services, games, books, binoculars, you name it. The home was well stocked with linens, towels, and the like. It was only the two of us who stayed time (my wife and I), but there were extra bedrooms and a loft for other guests. The other bedrooms had good storage, lots of bins and hooks. The main bedroom had a washer/dryer which was very handy! There were also little bits of family memorabilia throughout the home, pictures of their family throughout the years which made it feel so welcoming. We brought our small dog with us and he loved it. He ran around the yard investigating, and we took him for walks in the nearby trails. Our host Rachel was so kind and responsive, very thoughtful and it was a pleasure to interact with her. Overall, we couldn’t have had a better time waking up to the sun rising over the lake, having coffee and watching the ducks, kayaking throughout the day, sitting on the dock, lounging in the hammock, eating on the deck each evening, and ending the night with a cozy fire pit. We did not want to leave! We cannot wait to return to this little slice of heaven. Thank you Rachel!

Fabulous Getaway
The cottage on Pimlico Pond was perfect for my husband and I. The cottage was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed for our stay. We enjoyed morning coffee on the deck overlooking the pond with the ducks, birds and busy squirrels. We enjoyed kayaking on the pond and relaxing on the lounge chairs in the company of brilliantly colored dragonflies. The lovely neighborhood was very quiet. I hope I did not disturb the neighbors with my flute playing! It is in a great location to visit all that Sandwich has to offer. We were able to see the Heritage Gardens and Museum, Sandwich Glass Museum and Green Briar Nature Center all a short drive from the property. We also spent an afternoon at Whydah Pirate Museum in Yarmouth. Fascinating! There was plenty more that we did not get to do. I hope that we will be able to stay there again. Rachel is a super host and was easy to get in touch with and made us feel welcomed. Thank you for making such a lovely place available to us.

Great vacation spot at the Cape
We had a great experience staying at this house. The house itself had everything we needed and was very clean. Super easy check in, and Rachel was a very helpful host. We really enjoyed the pond, and used the kayaks and the paddle board! This is a great stay, would love to come back!
