We stayed at this Osterville home for 2 weeks in July. It is located in a quiet residential area about 2 miles from Dowses beach. There were 5 of us, 3 adults and 2 kids, and there was more than enough room for everyone. The house was welcoming and very comfortable, which was a good thing as the weather was not entirely cooperative. The kitchen is huge, and the entire house was very clean. The finished basement was great, the kids could play on the Nintendo Wii after a long beach day. There was also a pullout couch down there which came in handy when another relative visited for a couple of days.
There is a lovely deck on the back of the house and we very much enjoyed watching the birds and especially the hummingbirds that came to drink from the water feeder.
The owners were a pleasure to deal with, and we did have one small problem involving the hot water heater. The water would only be hot enough for one shower before running out. I called Joanne and she sent her husband Gary over right away. The problem was solved within the hour. We had no other issues and had a wonderful time staying there. In fact, we will be returning for another 2 weeks next summer. We recommend this rental!
