We had a great stay in this lovely home! It was a very clean and comfortable with numerous thoughtful items such as coffee, spices and condiments to bikes & beach gear. The quiet neighborhood was beautiful and the location was close to everything. We recommend you try Brax, about a 5 minute drive, for their delicious lobster roll and waterfront view.

Very cute place for small family. Kitchen was wonderful with all the basics. Location is perfect and so walkable to downtown Harwichport. Owners very responsive. Beds were very comfortable! The only issue was the neighbor behind the house kept their outside light on all night and light came into the room, even with the blinds closed. I was able to hang a blanket the next night to keep it dark. Thank you!

This was our second stay at this home and it didn't disappoint! My husband and I celebrated New Year's on the Cape this year. This home had everything we needed and then some. The location is great, it's very clean, the bed was comfy, the kitchen is well stocked, and linens and towels are provided. The owner's had even decorated it for Christmas, which was a wonderful surprise when we arrived. We've already booked again for our spring trip.
