The property and view are beautiful on their own, but the owners have done a great job curating furniture and decoration to give a fantastic and cozy beach theme. Many items and appliances are included for a nice stay such as utensil, seasoning, coffee machine. The location is an easy drive to most points of interests in the area.

Couldn't have been in a better place for a 9 day (rare) Sept. nor'easter than here!! Absolutely, the BEST accommodations for our 45th wedding anniversary, despite the weather. The cottage is perfect in every way w/ the views breathtaking from a very much used enclosed porch. (loved this room) We enjoyed everything about this "magical gem" and can't wait to return in August, hopefully with some sunnier weather (ha)Sally and Bob - thank you for sharing such a special place, where fond memories are made for all those, fortunate enough to experience!!!

Sally and Bob were wonderful hosts. The Cottage is adorable and we loved the 3 season room. The location is second to none and the view/sunsets are spectacular. Being right on the beach and a short walk to the harbor and Mattekeese wharf restaurant was paradise. In summary. this Cottage and it's fantastic hosts have everything a family of 4 would need.

Nice Beachfront Getaway!

We had a wonderful stay in a cute cottage on the water. Beachfront property was important to us and this property delivered. Also, we like to cook and the kitchen was newly renovated and was well appointed with items that we needed.

This was our third stay at this charming beach house. We had a wonderful time again this year. Having the water just steps from the house makes going to the beach so very convenient. It also allows us to have a view of the sand and water from the enclosed porch while we read, eat meals, do jigsaw puzzles, or just sit gazing at the lighthouse, the boats, and the beautiful sunsets.The house is clean and comfortable. We had everything we needed.It was a great week. We look forward to next year!

The Perfect House

This house and location couldn't have been more perfect for us, a couple on their first vacation with a young toddler. The space is comfortably small, thoughtfully stocked, and the view is incredible. Being able to just walk a few feet to the beach, and then down the road to lunch or dinner, made for a low stress vacation for our family. We would definitely stay here again and again and again!

Fantastic

This was our second year staying at this gem and, once again, it was fantastic. Being on the beach/water can’t be beat, especially with 2 small kids. We took full advantage of the beautiful lawn for coffee in the morning and the sunsets in the evening. Bob and Sally have the place in great condition and can’t wait to come back!

Absolutely adorable cottage! Perfect for a couple or small family. The view was outstanding and some of the most beautiful sunsets I have ever seen. We rented a kayak which was so fun to use right off the private beach. Lovely short walk to restaurants and marina - we loved the location and will be back! Sally was such a pleasure to communicate with and very quick to respond. Bonus - ice cream boat pulled right up to the beach!

Absolutely lovely!

Our stay at the ocean cottage was lovely. The view and outdoor space is incredible. The cottage itself is clean and tidy and with great seaside decor. We had a baby and a toddler so it was so easy to be right on the water and not have to go anywhere to have a day at the beach. The beach is very quiet and calm. The owners were also very responsive and helpful with any questions we had. Would definitely come again!

Wonderful week on the water

Exactly as described! The view was outstanding. You could see the water from the porch and from the living room. Convenient to a nice seafood restaurant and a fish market. Did I mention the great view? Small but comfortably furnished. Very responsive hosts.

Always fantastic!

We have stayed here many times but have not been back in several years. Our kids are now teenagers and the house was just as perfect as we remember! We loved the new kitchen and the entire house is always clean and neat. Bob and Sally think of everything you could ever need. We will be back again!

A perfect week

This was our first stay at this cottage, which has many, many regulars who return year after year. Previous reviewers have uniformly given this cottage perfect ratings -- and now we are so pleased to do the same. Our very high expectations (based on others' reviews) were exceeded in every way. Indeed, everything about the cottage is exceptional. We will be back next year, and look forward to someday being a regular ourselves!

We had a delightful, week-long stay at this cottage. It was our second stay. The private beach was just steps from the well kept yard. We loved that we could see the ocean at all times. We enjoyed the screened-in porch, the yard, and the beach each day. Everything about the cottage made it an easy week. The Wi-Fi was great, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the linens were provided. The cottage was extremely clean and comfortable. And the sunsets never disappoint! We will return!

I had the most relaxing time! The cottage is cozy & had everything I needed! It was very clean, which is something you don’t always get, despite listing otherwise. The view never disappointed, be it daytime or sunsets, which were fantastic! It’s close to so many things, golf courses, brewery, marina that had whale watches, grocery stores & other shopping close by…. Sally was fantastic! She responded quickly to a few questions I had. It was the perfect vaca! Thank u!

We came to the Bob and Sallys rental for our Sons first beach vacation. The location is perfect. Having a yard to spend time on right by the beach was very nice. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Outstanding

The cottage was perfect for our family of 4. The beach front location made for easy sand/water time and the evening sunsets are the best we’ve experienced on the Cape. The cottage is exactly as described and had everything we needed for our week stay. Some other highlights: the great backyard lawn, awesome back porch, and the easy walk to restaurants/ice cream. Thank you Bob & Sally and we look forward to seeing you next year!

Wonderful for first time vacation with a little one

We took our daughter on her first beach vacation and having immediate access to the water was a major plus. The cottage is also a single floor so if you're kid is walking, no need to worry about safety there. Outdoor property is well groomed and nicely decorated. The view is incredible at sunset! Lastly, Sally and Bob, thank you for this great family trip!

Perfect Cottage

A small cottage by the Bay that was extremely well maintained, upgraded and very clean. Every detail covered and we wanted for nothing. It worked in all weather conditions whether hot with air conditioner, large enclosed porch with full bay and beach view, out on the lawn or right on the beach out front. Wonderful hosts. Gorgeous sunsets. Yup, we’ll go again.
