We loved the house from the moment we opened the front door and saw the ocean through the back sliding doors. The house was very comfortable, well-equipped with everything we needed, There were plenty of towels for the bathrooms and the beach. There were minor problems (washing machine, grill) but the owner took care of these issues promptly. The location was good for food shopping, dining out and visiting other towns on the cape. We lounged, swam,bicycled,hiked, kayaked,whale watched and visited quaint towns. Two bedrooms are fabulous and one is small and does not have an ocean view. I highly recommend staying at this property. Roberta

Perfect oceanfront vacation

I stayed at Nancy's oceanfront cottage the week of Aug 9, 2010 and couldn't have asked for anything better. This was the best beach cottage I've ever rented. There are three houses in a row on this part of Old Wharf Road (before you get to condos), but since Nancy's house is a slight bit closer to the street than the two on each side of it, it provides a nice, private backyard, complete with deck, patio table/umbrella/grill and a sizeable sandy area before you walk down the steps to the beach. The two downstairs bedrooms have nice separation and the one that's on the back of the house has a little sitting area so that you can look at the ocean. The upstairs master bedroom/bathroom has a deck off of it that runs the full length of the house. Everyone congregated there each morning for breakfast. Since it's oceanfront, it was always breezy. There's nothing like sleeping with all of the windows open, hearing the waves crashing as you fall asleep. From the master bedroom, I could see the ocean from the bed as I opened my eyes in the morning. I vacationed there with my two sisters who I don't get to see that often as we live in different states and I had friends from MA visit each day. The backyard was the perfect get-together place and since there are two jetties that are at the end of the houses on each side of this cottage, it was like having a private beach. Only a few families there and always sandy beach, regardless of high tide. Recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a perfect oceanfront cottage.

Cape Cod Charmer

My sister and I just spent 2 weeks here, and couldn't be more pleased with our experience! It was great working directly with the owner, Nancy, who answered all our questions very promptly. She thoughtfully included customer cards on the house key ring for the 2 major grostores in the area, so we were able to save quite abit. We ate most of our meals here, the kitchen is completely furnished with everything you need, the view of the ocean from the inside dining table and the table on the deck are really great. We appreciated the gas fireplace, it gets chilly in April, the washer and dryer, dishwasher and internet. This cottage is wonderfully and comfortably decorated, but not over done. Just very comfortable. The master bedroom and bath take up the entire 2nd floor and are really nice. A huge deck is off the Master Suite as is seating area for reading. The jetted tub was a luxury after a chilly day on the Cape. Another great thing is the location, centrally located on the Nantucket Sound side of the Cape, it is central to everything. There are very good restaurants in the area if you do not want to cook, and all the conveniences you need, but this cottage is away from the activity and a wonderful place to stay during your visit to the cape. Why stay in a motel or condo in a noisy area, when you can stay here, compare the price, you get so much more here and you are directly on the water, not ocean view, you are ocean front. Its just beautiful.

Thank you for the use of your fabulous home! It's perfect. We loved the mix of "old" and "new " Cape Cod. What a perfect way to de -stress. We are already looking forward to our next visit here.
