We had a fabulous stay at Sandtrap. The cottage is lovely and had everything we needed. Communication with our host Mary was good.

The perfect Cape Home for a getaway!

We absolutely loved our stay at The Sandtrap! It is perfectly located a short walk to the beach, putt putt, and a short drive away from restaurants, other towns, with plenty to do/explore. We had so much fun for the weekend staying here- it is a beautiful home that is very cozy and lots of space! Mary is so delightful and quick to respond and provided all the information and support we needed before, during, and after our stay. Would recommend this property to any family looking for a vacation home in Cape Cod!

Our stay at Sandtrap was absolutely perfect for our family of six and made our first trip to Cape Cod truly memorable! The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and so thoughtfully appointed—it immediately felt welcoming and comfortable.Mary is a fantastic host—quick to respond, warm, and full of excellent recommendations for things to see and do around the Cape. Her local insights really enhanced our trip!The kitchen was well-equipped, which made dining in easy and enjoyable. We especially loved the backyard and deck, where we shared several meals in the fresh Cape air. The provided beach gear was a thoughtful bonus and came in handy for our relaxing afternoon at a nearby beach.The location was ideal for exploring—easy drives to Chatham, Dennis, Provincetown, and just minutes from the Hyannisport ferry, where we caught a boat for a wonderful day on Martha’s Vineyard.Sandtrap was everything we hoped for and more—clean, charming, and convenient. We are so grateful for Mary’s hospitality and are already looking forward to returning. A wonderful place to experience summertime on the Cape!

Very clean and cute place to stay

This was a very clean and cute place to stay. It is very comfortable and has everything you would need or want from everything in the kitchen if you want to cook in or have a cookout to everything in the bathroom that you would need. Very quiet neighborhood. The owner is very friendly and very helpful with information for the area and for Martha’s Vineyard. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to my family and friends. Thank you for a pleasant stay.

Comfortable, very clean Cape Cod escape!

Four adults stayed very comfortably in this beautiful home. We loved this house as a base for exploring all of Cape Cod! The location allowed us access to basically anywhere we wanted to travel in a short amount of time. The host was very responsive and helpful with questions we had! The house was the most clean home we have ever rented. We loved our stay at this home.

Perfect home away from home

The Sandtrap was a perfect home away from home for us during our son’s baseball tournament. From the moment we walked in the door we felt so relaxed and comfortable. The Sandtrap is beautifully decorated, immaculate, and has all of the comforts of home and much more. We loved the local mini golf and ice cream right up the road and the central location close to Hyannis Main Street and many local beaches. Mary was a wonderful host and truely thought of everything. We look forward to a return visit!

Pretty Cottage in W Yarmouth

Well stocked kitchen in both appliances and supplies. Everything for the beach - chairs and towels which we might have used had there not been a hurricane. Lovely main bathroom with roomy shower (one of three). Easy to check in and out. Everything wee needed was there. After a steamy week in New York we could have used a washing machine. Three of us had a lovely time.

Great Spot!

Sand trap was a great location, nicely updated and clean. 15 min walk to the beach, and easily can walk to restaurants (ice cream and mini golf a min walk away). Mary was very responsive, and she stays on the property. We had two adult couples, setup was okay but the second bed is a tight squeeze (would be harder for older adults to get in and out). Great set up for kids though. Decor is nice but lots of breakables and notes, just had to be careful.

Lovely, clean home in perfect location

Highly recommend this property. Mary’s home is immaculate and beautifully decorated. The backyard and garden are lovely and so peaceful. Our family of 6 (3 generations including an infant and 5 year old) fit very comfortably in the home which was incredibly well stocked. It is in a prime location on the border of Hyannis and West Yarmouth and walking distance to a private bay beach (perfect for kids) at the bottom of the street. Mary was impressively responsive and thoughtful. We will definitely be back!

Charming beach house

Great location for ferries, restaurants and local points of interest. This house is so cute, cozy and well-appointed you don't really need to go anywhere else to have a relaxing vacation. The owner has thought of everything to make your stay welcoming and enjoyable. The travel brochures were informative to see what is available in the area. We were only there 4 days/nights and were busy with trips to Nantucket and Provincetown, kayaking on the Bass River and enjoying the nearby beach. It was also fun to walk over to the mini golf course, play a round and have their fabulous ice cream concoctions. Treat yourself to the ice cream in the mason jar!

Cape Cod Girls Trip

First, the host, Mary, is incredibly friendly, detail oriented, and very responsive! There were notes and thoughtful touches throughout the house. Instructions very clear and easy to follow. Questions answered quickly! As for the house, it was clean and our small group loved the color scheme and decorative accents. Kitchen was fully stocked with dishes, glassware, keurig and brew coffee pot, etc. The location on the mid cape area made it easy to get to the ferry for Martha’s Vineyard and the dock for a whale watching excursion. A drive to the Outer Cape to Nauset, Truro Vineyard, and Provincetown was an easily doable day trip from the house. Thanks Mary for a great stay for our girlfriend getaway!

About the host

Hosted by Mary

Host profile image
From just North of Boston, I am a true "Washashore" here on Cape Cod. I traveled for 30 plus years all over the US and many other places for business, but my heart still flies lighter once I cross the Sagamore Bridge onto Cape Cod. Sandtrap was once my "go to" second home, but now is my year-round landing spot! I am outgoing and enjoy meeting new people, but also mindful of my guests' privacy as I expect for myself. I am committed to providing the best visits for all of my guests and strive to address any need or concerns quickly!

Why they chose this property

Historic Hyannis Park is a seaside family neighborhood with our own beach less than half mile at the end of the street, and so much more very close by; ferry terminals, local shopping, dining, major travel routes, airport, other wonderful beaches, golf, kayaking and so much more. The location is just terrific!

What makes this property unique

Beautiful landscaping, large private fenced in yard with expansive deck and sunroom. Less than 50 yards to mini golf course and ice cream and all other beaches and hot spots, yet still a quiet respite.
