We loved staying here!
The house was incredibly comfortable and very homely and had all the of the home comforts you would expect. We came from London so it was great to have beach towels, parasols and beach chairs! Onset town was not too busy but very pleasant, a few nice eateries, Marc Anthony's Italian, Quahog Republic and Stashes. We went Whale watching from Barnstable and used Hyannis whale watching, I would recommend a trip to Nantucket on the fast ferry, a beautiful place! Overall a comfortable and very pleasant holiday.
We stayed in 7A the downstairs unit which includes the backyard deck with a water view. Only a short walk to the beach with a private section. The house was very clean, cozy and comfortable. Our stay was Mon-Fri. Wish we could have stayed longer. We had a wonderful vacation.
Seeing the place in person was better than the photos! The place is cute, there was plenty of kitchen accessories to make meals, everything was very clean and the addition of extra linens were all thoughtful. The private beach was nice to be able to walk the shore, collect shells and watch the little crabs scurry into their holes when you walk by. The beach chairs left for you to use were sturdy and well-kept, the outdoor shower was helpful in keeping out the sand as much as possible from getting into the house and the patio was nice to eat meals on. Jude was incredibly responsive (we’re talking minutes, if that at times!) and respected the privacy of our family to enjoy the stay. I would recommend this place to a small family or just a group of adults looking for a place to stay with an hour-ish drive to other beaches and hot spots within Cape Cod.
This house was a great alternative to staying in a hotel. The living room and kitchen areas were very comfortable and had everything we needed for a week’s stay. The bedrooms are small, but if you just need a comfortable place to lay your head at night, it’s great. Great location with easy access to the nearby village. We would stay here again!
Great stay, everything is convenient, Communication with Jude was very efficient. Just one thing , don’t use the wall power outlet at the bigger bedroom to vacuum and use the AC at the same time, it might trigger the circuit break.

Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
Horrible sleeping with skylights and side windows with no curtains and street lights glaring in.
Disappointed for the money it was dirty and well used.
Poor air circulation, lacking window screens, holes in screens, back patio furniture beat up… kitchen floor needs better Matt’s to keep the home clean rocks from driveway come in every time!
Great location for access to the beach and to restaurants, all within walking distance even with young kids. House was perfect, even bigger then we were expecting and very clean. Communication with owner/manager wasn't even really needed but when I had a question was available to answer right away. Thank you again, definitely would stay here again if available!
We enjoyed our stay. It was clean, comfortable, and convenient.

The apartment was wonderful, very clean, close to everything. The only drawback was the fact that it was not handicapped accessible as proclaimed in the amenities. Yes it was on one level but a tight squeeze. Also the bathroom was not accessible as was the deck. There was a step, if you were not mobile, that become a problem. My son in law fashioned a step from wood he bought at Home Depot. The beach also wasn't handicapped accessible. That should have been noted. My family did have a good time, as they are all mobile. Every thing was close by and if one was mobile easy walking distance.
The property was spotless and had a completely functional kitchen and laundry. A residents only tidal beach is a minute's walk. We spent every single day at the beach. We didn't really need to check in with Jude as she had given very clear instructions.
Great location within easy walking distance of downtown Onset. My parents and sister stayed here while we rented the upstairs unit. The unit was clean and comfortable. There's a roomy kitchen, good sized living room, and a great deck with a big table and a grill. The only complaint was that one of the bedrooms has a skylight that doesn't have a shade, so if you're a light-sensitive sleeper, bring a sleep mask.
House was very nice and location was great as it was close to many activities without the traffic and business of the Cape. Our kids enjoyed searching for crabs and shells on the private beach. Jude was very attentive and easy to communicate with.
Wonderful well kept spot with great access to beaches! The property is very well maintained as well as very clean when we arrived. Thanks for a great trip!
Very clean, cute property. Lovely view of bay. A little crowded for three adults, as the bedrooms are quite tiny with just one teeny tiny closet. The owner was a pleasure to work with.
We arrived 30 minutes early and were dismayed to find the housekeeper in the unit without a mask. All doors and windows were open and I do not know if that is considered an acceptable cleaning practice during the pandemic.
While everything looked very clean, the couch smelled of dog. We don’t have pets and pick up quickly on any pet odor.
Something in skylight bedroom smelled unwashed.. The bed linens were clean and I never discovered the source of the odor.
Whoever sleeps in the sky light room will need an eye mask.
Location was wonderful, only one house from a private beach and a beautiful harbor.
We were in 7A (ground level) and the tenants in 7B were above our living area not our bedrooms so noise was not an issue. 7A does not have much of a view but the beach is so close that it was not a problem.
The mattress in the far bedroom needs replacement.
