Beautiful and quaint little home. Close to the beach and the Knob where we watched the sunset and enjoyed short walks and bike rides. The bikes and beach chairs are a nice touch. We enjoyed the patio and drinking coffee in the mornings and a glass of wine before dinner. A little piece of heaven and we hope to be back.

Excellent accommodation and location, but the couch and rugs need a deep clean.

The only thing that prevented this, from being a five star review is that the couch needs a shampoo, as well as some of the mats on the floor. We enjoyed our stay immensely, and would likely stay again at the same place.

Quissett Cottage

It was really nice. Clean & neat there was everything we needed. Found somethings at the end, o well. We like to bike ride so location was great.Easy to store bikes. Always enjoy Falmouth restaurants ... Would love to go back! Keep me up dated if rate go's down during any season. The coach dose need to be cleaned.

Ghosted by the property owner

Full disclosure, we never actually got to stay here. We had been planning our honeymoon to Cape Cod for a YEAR and had this property booked the whole time. Initially had pleasant contact with the owner. Never received arrival instructions, so after we had already flown to Boston and rented a car, I messaged her saying we would be there right around check-in time. Didn’t hear anything, but I’ve stayed at a million home-stays and know arrival is always different and sometimes you get a code or something right at check-in. Drove to the house and it was locked up, no clear entry instructions. Tried calling and messaging her for about an hour until we gave up and called VRBO. They also couldn’t get a hold of her. We ended up having to find a hotel to stay at and then coming home early. We thankfully got a quick refund from VRBO but this completely ruined our honeymoon.

Mia - I don’t feel this is a fair review. Like you said, you never stayed at my home. I had 2 missed calls and one from VRBO. You got a full refund. I had a medical emergency and I called you within hours. I text, called and messaged you repeatedly through the app letting you know you could check in and I would give you a free stay for the inconvenience. You chose not to respond to me in any way. Had you answered I am sure we could have made things right. I apologized and that is all I could offer given you would not respond to me.

We had a lovely time! The bikes were a great bonus (just check the air before you go anywhere). Check in was so smooth and the location of the cottage was perfect for us. We enjoyed the walk to The Knob and riding bikes to Falmouth and the beach. Overall a very pleasant trip!

Great place in between Woods Hole and Falmouth! Love the area! You could come to relax, walk, read, bike or go out on the town in either place! Home is small but great for 2 people. Marissa has thought of everything to make your stay comfy!

Small but it grew on me.

Took a day or two for us to adjust to the size of the place but we absolutely enjoyed our stay. We now love Falmouth. Rode bikes every morning to Woods Hole for coffee and muffins. Did some morning jogs on the roads by the beach. Went to beach every day from around 4 until 6:30 or so. No crowds. We most likely will be back.

Weekend on the Cape

We had a weekend stay at Marissa’s place. Our first night was impacted by a recent nor’easter but she provided us with an alternative option until the heat and power were restored. We were appreciative of her communication and offer to provide us with a backup. Luckily, the amenities were fully up and running by 10pm and we enjoyed the rest of our stay!

Lovely & Clean, Tho Close to Busy Street

We enjoyed our stay and Marisa was a great host. House is thoughtfully set up, including on little things that matter a lot (to us) like dimmable lights, kitchen supplies, etc. The house is right off Woods Hole Road, so you will hear traffic. Loved the air conditioner in the bedroom, which blocked out the street noise.

Well located and perfect for couples or family with small children

The property was well located and well kept. Some minor maintenance was needed. There was A/C only in the bedroom because the family room unit was down, and the back patio lights also were out. But that didn't keep us from having a great stay in Falmouth.
