Perfect House in Hyannisport

Loved this house. Beautiful outside, nice back yard for BBQs with friends and kiddies. Inside spotless. Pretty wood floors, furniture clean. Laundry facilities in basement. Working air conditioning units in every BR and Living Room plus fans. More than sufficient to quickly cool down the house. TVs in working condition. Centrally located to everything. Master BR has queen bed and futon if needed; 2nd BR has double bed; Third BR has two bunk beds (i.e., 4 beds) which worked out great because we pushed one perpendicular against the other which created a "crib" effect and our 2 year old was safely snuggled on the bottom bed, could get out as she pleased but had a sort of crib rail affect because of the other bed, so she didn't fall out. Our 7 yr old loved sleeping on the top bunk which also had a protective rail. I can't even imagine why someone wouldn't like this house. Owner is a sweetheart. Only confusion was that garbage pick up is Tues, so we didn't realize that garbage would be in outside garbage cans from previous week's renter and that we needed to put that out for the Tues pick up so we did have to pay for a special pick up at the end of the week. Not such a big deal. Other than that, it was a perfect week.

Owner response:We feel great when our renters let us know they love our home and neighborhood as much as we do. We vacation there too! And we will pick up the cost of the missed sanitation pickup that week. :-)

We loved our stay at this beautiful house this summer. It offers an excellent location, which is close to Kulmas, Keyes and Craigville beaches, Hyannis Main Street, Ocean Street docks (cruises to Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard) and grocery stores/Gas stations. The neighorhood is peaceful and beautiful. The house is well maintained and offers 2 full baths and two floors which we liked. An outdoor shower is a plus for those who go to beach frequently. The kitchen is fully equipped. The spacious backyard/deck provides for shades and privacy...Washer/Dryer offers convenience for a longer vacation. It is a perfect place for our perfect vacation. Last but not least, the booking process is straightforward and smooth. Gene is very responsive to our needs and requests. We look forward to renting this house again for our future stays at the Cape, and would highly recommend this vacation home to anyone.

The house was very clean and well maintained. New outdoor shower was perfect for washing off after the beach. The beach pass included with the rental was awesome - beaches that pass allowed us into were exceptional. Great place to stay - close to all conveniences. Had a wonderful vacation and kids cannot wait to go back!

Owner response:Hi Christine, thank you so much for the wonderful review! We are glad you had a good time at our home. We hope to see you again next year. Warm regards, Gene and Carol

Beautiful Rental House

This house is beautiful and well kept. This was our 7th trip to the Cape and the best house we have ever stayed it. We loved having the two floors and the multiple bathrooms. The back deck is secluded and nice to hang out on. It has all the amentities that you would want away from home (dishwasher, washer and dryer, etc.). I would recommend this property in a heartbeat. The owner was very personable to work with and the process was very smooth. We plan to go back next year!

Owner response:Hi Jane, thanks for taking the time to provide such a wonderful review! We are glad you had a great time and that you loved our home. We hope to see you again next year. Have a great summer! Gene and Carol

Great house

This was the perfect house for our family vacation!! The location is great because everything is so close by and the neighborhood is safe and quiet. Because the house is not a main street you do not have the noise of cars up & down the road which is helpful when putting little kids to bed at night. The second we pulled up to the house we noticed how nice it was -- big driveway. Going into the house was exciting because as soon as we entered you could not miss how clean it was (newly done over hardwood floors, new furniture & lots of space). One part that I noticed right away was no clutter of the typical Cape cod knick knacks, so I didn't have a job of putting everything up high so the kids couldn't get to things. The bedrooms are nice sizes- no problems with space & the master is huge. All the bedrooms had ac which was great because we were down during the heat wave and never suffered from the heat. The deck is nice to hang out while the kids played in the yard & the outdoor shower was fantastic!! The kitchen is bigger than it appears in the picture which is nice when cooking nobody is under your feet. Having use of the washer & dryer was huge, we went home with clean clothes, no dirty laundry!!! I can't say enough about this house because we really enjoyed our trip & thought this was the perfect house. Gene the owner was great to work with. I would definitely recommend this house!!!

Owner response:Hi Tracey, Thank you so much for taking the time to write this wonderful review of our home! Your first impressions when pulling into our street and driveway were exactly like ours the day we bought this home. This one is special!! In fact my wife and I may retire here. Seriously. I promised my neighbors that they couldnt tell that our home was rented during the season. That means reinvestment, cleanliness, yard and home upkeep and TLC. We stay here too, and see the neighbors when we do. We hope you will come and stay with us again. But please let us know soon. It's July 2011 and we are getting requests for the 2012 season. Have a great summer and welcome to our family of renters. Gene

Everything the owner said it would be. I made several phone calls to try and find the right home to rent and I couldn't be happier with my choice!! So nice, so helpful. Full of information to help guide you to a great vacation of exactly what you would be looking to do. I give the owner/home my highest recommendation. Thank you so much for everything!!

My family and I spent a week in this beautiful home this summer. And it had everything we needed, very clean, very quiet neighborhood, and close to the beaches. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a nice family vacation at the Cape. Thank you Rebecca, Kris and family.

A perfect quiet location of this vacation getaway! It is nearby to beaches, food accomodations, etc. Great cul-de-sac for children riding bikes, playing in backyard, the entire house in general. A definite place to stay for a fun family vacation!
