About this property

Shop, Swim, Hike, Bike in Historic Brewster MA!

Beautiful barn wood cathedral ceilings in the living area open to a fully equipped kitchen with composting and Britta filtered water! Newer mattresses and pillows on all the beds in bright naturally lite rooms. A spacious master bedroom suite is separate from two other bedrooms and bathroom, all have air conditioning. Each room has ample closet space and dressers for storage. With the linen and towel option, you aren't charged a large fee for a small group! This option allows you to rent at $12 per person, providing a face, bath, washcloth and beach towel or bring your own with no charge! Extras in the closet. We provide a moveable desk that can be set up in any space to create a private work area. Our sunny dining room has a sturdy table that seats 7 comfortably. The sunporch is a great space for a quiet read or enjoy a board game with the gang! The grape vine covered pergola is the perfect outdoor dining space! Meet friends for dinner after a full day or linger over a glass of wine and great conversation while grilling out (charcoal provided). Our spacious backyard is secluded with woods at the back, field on one side and grove of evergreens with a gated wood fence on the other. Great for early morning coffee with birdsong or an afternoon game of Bocce or frisbee! After a day on the beach use the outdoor shower, cold and hot water provided!
The Adirondack chairs and fire pit (wood provided) are a great way to sit back and talk thru the day's adventures. All this is located in a quiet residential area that is great for dog walking or strolling with the benefit of being on a main road for easy access to all spots on the Cape! Escape Away is cozy and relaxing with an atmosphere where guests can enjoy being with their family and friends while enjoying all the Cape has to offer!
Bikes and equipment can be stored in our shed out back.

Simply a great place. I won't spend time gushing so just know that we loved it and you will too. The only nitpick I had was there was no way to start a fire for backyard pit ( no matches and so on )and while there was bar soap, there wasn't any shampoo or the like. The place was so great that these two tiny details were the only thing I could find lacking.

Andrew so glad you had a great week here on the Cape. Thank you for leaving our place in easy to clean condition too! I apologize about the matches and shampoo. Each bathroom has a basket under the sink with shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste, razors etc. I am sorry I didn’t check if we had run out. Thank you for the heads up! Likewise the matches should be in the kitchen drawer. I appreciate you mentioning these details! I’m on it!

Great location for a short stay

This home was in a great location for us to explore Brewster, the flats, the rail trail, shops, and nearby restaurants. The backyard was fabulous for throwing a ball around and to store our bikes, as well as access to a fire pit for great evenings outside!

Kathy I am sorry we only earned a 4! Would have loved to know what you were not happy with as we went out of our way to accommodate you even with your late checking out and damaging the towel bar. As you know our ratings are important to us, as they help travelers decide what property to choose out of the many good ones available. Please let me know what we could have done better as we are completely puzzled!

The cottage was in a perfect location on the cape -- close to both 6A and 6 which made it easy to get around to other parts of the Cape. Breakwater Beach was 3 minutes away which was a great place to watch the amazing bayside sunsets. The cottage was clean and comfortable, and we loved the layout. The host was warm and welcoming and was very responsive to our needs.
