Wonderful, though rainy week!
In spite of challenging weather, we had a wonderful stay at Myra's home. The living space worked beautifully for our family of Grandparents, adult daughter, great-grandfather, infant and two year old. Myra greeted us on our arrival with a tour of the spotless house and easy to work systems. Her home is easy to clean, well stocked, and lovingly decorated. The outdoor shower is perfect. The neighborhood is gorgeous. A rocky beach with beautiful views is within an easy walk, even for children. Wear beach shoes to explore the beach, it will make your explorations easier. Most summers ,I go to the outer cape, yet I was happy to learn this close to Boston area is just as beautiful in its' own way. I recommend Myra's home for a happy vacation!
Thank you Margie and Arthur for choosing to stay at our home during your vacation. I wish I had more control over the weather, but it sounds like you brought your own sunshine with you. We enjoyed meeting the whole family and can't thank you enough for taking such incredibly good care of our house. We wish you all the best and hope to welcome you back to Falmouth in the near future.
My best, Myra
Highly recommended
Such a beautiful home & great location. This was the perfect pick for our mini-family reunion. Large open living room/kitchen area was ideal for time together, with separate den, sun room and large deck to spread out. Easy access to Falmouth village, but tucked away from the congestion. Myra made the entire rental process easy, and was very responsive throughout. Highly recommended.
We're delighted you enjoyed your time in our house and were happy to see such wonderful weather for the Falmouth Marathon. Congratulations to all the runners!! Our best to the family.

Perfect Month in Falmouth
We found Myra to be a great, fast and very helpful in securing our stay. We were at her house for a month and enjoyed everyday. This is the first time that we felt like we were at home. The house is a wonderful and beautiful home away from home. From sun room to the sun deck watching the sunsets. We were blessed to have found Myra and her home in Falmouth and will return for another adventure in Cape Cod.
Thank you, Carl & Candy, for your lovely comments. We are also grateful for the pleasure of having you stay at our Falmouth house for a month. We couldn't have asked for more perfect guests. We're delighted you enjoyed your stay and would love to welcome you back next time Cape Cod beckons.
Our best to you both, Myra & Richard
Perfect Family Vacation - We will return !
From the very first contact with Myra I knew her beautiful home in the Sippewissett neighborhood North Falmouth was going to be great for our family. The experience exceeded our expectations. The home was spotless, and the layout perfect for late night conversations and catching up . The deck and grill work well for dinners, the kitchen is well equipped and the yard was large enough for a family games of "corn-hole". The location is ideal, it felt like we were five minutes from everything, great beaches, Woods Hole, and Falmouth Center. This is the 4th home we have rented over the past 8 summers and it is by far the best. We will return!
It gives us great pleasure when wonderful families like yours get to create very special memories in our house. Thank you for the lovely feedback . . . . we are already looking forward to welcoming you all back to Gunning Point next summer! Our best, Myra & Richard
BEST EVER RENTAL!!!
Thank you so much for sharing your home!
Let me begin with how easy it was to communicate with the owner, Myra. She quickly responded to my every message. Checking in was a breeze with Rebecca meeting us there even earlier than we expected! She showed us around so we felt at home and even gave us her number in case we needed anything.
The house is beautiful with the open floor plan, we enjoyed sharing our time in the kitchen and on the deck. A VERY short walk to a beautiful beach (with some rocky sections). We enjoyed bonfires at sunset. Everything was a very quick drive from the house/ Woods Hole ferry to Martha's Vineyard, groceries, restaurants, shops, bike trail, beaches etc. (we especially enjoyed the beach at the end of wood neck road that was a 2 minute car ride away).
Beds were extremely comfortable and house was immaculate.
The yard was beautiful and we loved playing croquet in the evenings.
I highly recommend this property
We are delighted you and your family had such a wonderful vacation and enjoyed the time you spent in our house. And we are so grateful for the incredible care you showed our house and the outstanding condition in which it was left. Thank you so much for your consideration. Please come back to Sippewissett soon! Have a wonderful summer! Myra, Richard & Rebecca
Outstanding house...
Look no further in Falmouth area..This is an outstanding house in a great location. Perfect for a couple or for a family.
The views of the water from the upstairs deck are gorgeous, so are the sunsets over the water. The upstairs open living, dining and kitchen area is beautifully furnished. The house has all the high end amenities that one would want or wish in any rental . The spectacular art work is the icing on the cake in this property.
Very short drive to center of Falmouth for dining. A private small beach is diagonally across the street from the house.
This house is truly a rare find. Enjoy!
And our good fortune is to have guests like you, George, who appreciate and care for our house while there. We love that you have made this your Cape getaway from the big apple and look forward to your next visit! Our best to you both.
Location
