About this property

5 Min Walk to Red River Beach!

Summary:

17740 - Absolute Beach: 5 Min Walk to Red River Beach!



The Space:

Happiness in Harwich is hard to hide from. With Red River Beach just a 5 minute walk (¼ mile) away, the Cape Cod Rail Trail a 7 minute bike ride from home, and some of the area's favorite dining spots nearby, your vacation is sure to be an Absolute Beach.



Walk between the blue glass-capped deck posts and onto the side deck before entering this Harwich hideaway. Out here, you’ll find an outdoor dining table, propane grill, and access to the private backyard. Step inside to a cozy breakfast nook and living room, with a large fully equipped kitchen just to your left and plenty of counter space for cooking up a vacation meal.



In the living room, natural light streams through the bay window overlooking the front yard. An additional table is in the living room, the perfect spot for cocktails or a chips and drink station while watching a movie on a summer night.



Past the living room, you'll find the home's three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, all conveniently located on one floor. The primary suite features a king bed and en suite bathroom with a shower/tub combo. A second bedroom offers a queen bed, while the third has two additional queen beds. A second full bathroom with a shower/tub combo provides plenty of space for the rest of the group, while a washer and dryer make it easy to keep up with beach towels and vacation laundry during your stay.



Outside, a private backyard welcomes you to relax under the stars. Gather around the fire pit on the back patio, let your pup stretch their les in the yard, or rinse off in the outdoor shower after a day at nearby Red River Beach.



With Forest Beach also close by, plenty of space to unwind at home, and the beach just a short walk away, this Harwich getaway has all the makings of a classic Cape vacation. You know what they say- life's an Absolute Beach!

Our host was extremely accommodating to our needs and our request for early check in access. The setting was a perfect location and near the wedding we were attending in the area. The carpet in the primary and into hallway is in need of repair/replacement and the sink in the primary bathroom needs a clean out as it was very slow to drain. Otherwise, this home provides all the essentials needed for a comfortable stay.

Red River Getaway

We loved being able to walk down to Red River beach multiple times a day! The house is very cute, large bedrooms and the fenced-in yard was great for our dog.

Property was in an excellent location, and a nice walk to the beach. House was clean and neat. Only drawbacks were the carpet in the master b/r, and the numerous holes in the fence!

Great beach access

My husband, myself, two kids (6 year old twins), and my mother-in-law stayed here and it was a great fit for our beach location. It was a quick walk down to the beach and we enjoyed how easy it was to fit a beach walk into our day after a full outing. This is our first time in Harwich (we usually stay in Chatham) and we will definitely be back.

Perfect location

A wonderful location! Walking distance to beach and center of town a short drive. The hallway carpets need some repairing and a small ant problem in one of the bedrooms. Overall a lovely get away cottage.

Disappointed by end of the week

At first, check in was easy. The host accommodated early check in which was great. As the week progressed however, we noticed a significant ant issue throughout the house and the screens on the doors were poor quality which led bugs in. We were very frustrated by the end of the week.

Thank you so much for choosing to stay with us, hosting you and your group in August was an absolute pleasure. I was happy to assist with your early check-in – my goal is always to kick things off on the right foot by ensuring a smooth check-in process for our guests! I'm genuinely sorry to hear about the bug situation during your stay. Please know that we have a 24/7 service available for our in-house guests, and reaching out to us during your stay would have allowed us to address the issue right away. I hope the refund I provided helped ease any inconvenience you might have encountered and I hope you book with us again in the future so I have another opportunity to earn your 5-star review!
