Absolute find of a house in Harwich. House was in great condition and had everything you need for a great vacation at the Cape. Owners have created a terrific spot ranging from the bedrooms to kitchen/common areas to back yard, all within a short walk to the beach. They are also very easy to work with. Highly recommend them and this property for anyone heading to the Cape.

Comfortable, roomy house that is well stocked with supplies. The area in back is nice for children to play in. The Pleasant Street beach is a good one and is not far to drive to. For those who go to mass, a Catholic church is very close by and can be walked to.We had a nice stay.

Everything about the stay was wonderful. The only criticism I would have is that the downstairs shower does not get hot, however, because there was a second shower upstairs this was not a major issue.

Beautiful Home

The house was perfect for our family vacation. The neighborhood was very quiet and the town was inviting. My family was very surprised to see rabbits about in the front yard upon our arrival. Can’t wait to come back!

Host was great! Location is fantastic. We rented bikes and enjoyed the quick and easy access to the beaches and Main Street shopping. Owners have put care into the home and have completed some nice updates. Rental included access to 4 beach chairs, wagon, large cooler, a few boogie boards and lots of beach toys.

Great place on the Cape!

We really enjoyed our stay at this house. It's a very cozy and nicely decorated Cape house, walking distance to the beach and to some restaurants, and close to lots of other fun locations like mini golf, the bike path, playgrounds, and Harwich center. The house is pretty spacious and the beds are very comfortable, and the kids enjoyed the hammock in the back yard. The owners answered our questions right away, and even left us some champagne and delicious snacks! We highly recommend this place.

Perfect Spot!

We loved spending time at Harwich Hideaway! The home was perfect for our needs….so many amenities were thought of by our host which made the week even more enjoyable. Everything was super clean and tastefully decorated- including a welcome basket of snacks. The nearby beach was exactly what we were hoping for, on the quiet side with local families visiting. We are already counting the days until we can come for a return trip! Thank you, Drew!

Amazing stay! Great property!

Couldn’t be happier with our stay. The location was perfect. We took a walk to the beach each morning and it was so peaceful. Great neighborhood and close to everything we wanted to do ! Grocery store was down the road and great restaurants near by! The house was so clean and had so many rooms it was perfect for our family. They had a pack and play there for us so I didn’t have to bring one ! Host suggested restaurants which were spot on and exactly what we wanted and the house was ready hours before check in time. Couldn’t be happier and can’t wait to stay again next year!

Harwich Fun

We had a great stay. The house was walking distance to the beach and also all the other essential stores like a breakfast spot, Luke’s Liquors, supermarket, and good Italian deli for sandwiches, especially when you are hungry at the beach. The house was clean upon arrival. We were able to check in early, especially for the group up and out early. There were four bedrooms and AC in all rooms. There was a side room off of the kitchen which was great for the younger kids. They could watch tv in their our space which the adults could chill in other areas. We all loved our trip to Harwich.

A Perfectly-Located Gem

Our family has been visiting the Cape for over 40 years, and this house was an excellent choice for this summer's vacation! The location is hard to beat; this house is right off of rt 28 with immediate access to all of the attractions there, but there's also a beach a half-mile walk down the road. The house itself is lovingly maintained by Drew and Kristen, and could comfortably accommodate a large group. As hosts, Drew and Kristen anticipated every potential need we could have! In addition to all of the local information they provided to make sure we felt at home, we were greeted by a welcome basket upon our arrival. We could not have asked for better hosts! If you need a place to unwind with plenty of space and a firepit out back, this is it!

Family trip for wedding

We had a wonderful time and can't wait to return. We appreciated the GREAT communication with Drew from the time we booked to addressing some minor issues while we were at the house. Drew is a fair guy who wants to make your visit a happy one. His property manager Kristen was great as well. The location of the house is perfect. The neighbors on both sides were super friendly. The house is adorable, and we loved the outside backyard. The barbeque, fire pit, and the turf backyard made for the perfect spot to entertain our family. The string lights out back were a nice added bonus to the backyard area. There is a shed with extra chairs for sitting out back, corn hole, a wagon, and cooler for the beach. There may have been beach chairs in there as well, but I didn't look for them as we brought our own. The small room on the main level was a nice added bonus, when my group of 5 wanted a little more space from one another. The beds were plenty. My husband commented on the comfort of the king bed, offering a very restful night's sleep. There are three bedrooms upstairs (two of which are very large). The smaller room has two twin beds. The upstairs bathroom was plenty spacious. The washer and dryer appeared new and were nice to have. There are A/C units throughout the house, and, worked well to cool off the home. There is one bedroom downstairs with two twin beds. We had a lovely experience renting this home. Thank you, Drew for opening your home to us!!!

Magical Cape Cod Getaway

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Drew, Kristen, and this incredible home! From the moment we got there, we were impressed by the charm and cleanliness of the whole property. The kitchen was fully equipped for all of our culinary ventures. We enjoyed tons of family time in the backyard and on our daily walks to the beach. Anything we needed or had questions about were answered promptly by our hosts. It was a dreamy experience, I highly recommend this home for your next vacation. 5 stars all around ✨️

Perfect Cape house for larger group

I rented Drew’s home for a family vacation—three older adults and three adult children. The house is very nicely furnished, light, and spacious with 4 bedrooms plus a den with an excellent sleeping sofa—so essentially 5 bedrooms and easily sleeps 11 people. Ample space outside to eat and relax. It was too cold for outdoor dinners when we stayed in mid-September but the large kitchen table was great for the 6 of us and also for 8 when we had some nearby family over. Very nice kitchen. A few small items were needed and the host was responsive to my suggestions and planned to provide them for future guests. Everything worked and was well maintained. Drew was a pleasure to communicate with, prompt and responsive to questions. He got in touch to mention a change he was considering making in case it would affect our stay (in which case he would have waited). And the location was great, close to Harwichport and only a half mile walk to the beach. If my kids keep wanting to travel with me, we’ll be back!!
