Perfect little vacation on the cape! Quiet spot just a short drive to the beach with quaint shops and restaurants nearby. Our hosts were so hospitable, leaving us with dog treats, coffee, toiletries, and even a gift card to a local cafe. We had such a relaxing stay. Thank you to our amazing hosts!

Rondi was a great host and this was a fantastic location for my wife and our Labrador. A quiet dead end street with plenty of shade. The detached space was thoughtfully appointed and had its own private outdoor space for grilling and relaxing.

The place was pristine clean and just adorable. The owner was easily accessible. The gift certificate covered our whole breakfast. A very nice bonus!There were even dog treats and doggie bags with feeding bowls ( we had forgotten our own bowls) so it was great.

Our stay was fantastic! This was exactly what we needed. Very quiet setting on a dead end road. The place was very clean and nicely decorated. It was wonderful to have our two dogs with us too. The owners provided everything we needed for us and for the dogs.The outdoor sitting area was quaint and quite comfortable! Highly recommended for a couple looking to be by themselves in a peaceful setting!! ENJOY.

Perfect escape

A perfect tiny cottage in a lovely little town. So nice that this area still feels like a quaint historic village - less traffic and less commercial. And the beaches and waterfront dining all very nearby.

Cute quiet location close to beach

My husband and I booked a long weekend here after the Labor Day holiday to ride our bikes and visit the beach. We were conveniently located to several trails and Sandy Neck Beach. This newly renovated garage had all the comforts of home, was nicely decorated, and perfect for us. If I had to make one suggestion it would be for a small dehumidifier to be added inside as it felt slightly damp each morning. We would recommend this rental property and would not hesitate to return.
