Property was well equipped ! Everything was in good working order. We had no issues at all !! Quiet location , good fenced in yard and we would stay again ! We liked the house a lot!
Literally everywhere we wanted to go was 7 minutes away! I am allergic to dog and cats and had no trouble staying here! Back yard and deck was very enjoyable! Had a campfire one night! Had to be near Grandma 90 th Birthday celebration!
The location is very convenient to the Cape area and easy to get to. However, the house is somewhat neglected and needs a good cleaning. There were a lot of spiders and roaches.

We take the cleanliness and condition of our home very seriously and would like to clarify a few points.
We have no record of a roach infestation at the property, and no roaches were reported to us during your stay. Had you notified us of any pest concerns, we would have promptly investigated and taken appropriate action. We also offered cleaning during your stay to help ensure the home was comfortable for you.
We were also surprised by the comments regarding the condition of the home, especially because we make every effort to maintain the property to a high standard and address any concerns brought to our attention during a guest’s stay.
Additionally, the reservation did not comply with our house rules regarding the number of guests. Six adults stayed at the property, contrary to the occupancy information provided in the house rules. Accurate guest counts are important for safety, cleaning, and property-management purposes.
We value our guests and welcome legitimate feedback, but we also believe it is important to provide accurate context for future guests reviewing this property.

I am sorry to hear that our home did not meet your expectations.
During your stay, we were never notified that the temperature was uncomfortable or that you were having difficulty with the air conditioning\. The central AC was in working order, and had we been made aware of any temperature concerns, we would have been happy to assist and adjust the settings accordingly.
The size of the home and the kitchen chairs are accurately represented in the listing photos, so guests can have a clear understanding of the space and furnishings before booking.
We also want to clarify that you received complimentary house cleaning and a complimentary bedding change during your stay. In addition, all garbage was removed during your stay as a complimentary gesture.
We also found some personal belongings that you left behind in the closet, contacted you immediately, and offered to send them to you.
We always welcome communication during a guest’s stay so that we have the opportunity to address concerns promptly and help make the experience as comfortable as possible.
We had a wonderful stay , as did our 2 dogs . The cottage had everything we needed . The dogs loved the fenced in backyard . It was nice to be centrally located to all the spots we enjoy at the Cape . We loved our accommodations!
My parents and I had a great stay. A lovely home, well decorated and very clean. Beds were comfortable. It was perfect for us and wonderful setting with fenced in yard for my dog. Location was convenient- quick drive to beaches and restaurants. We would stay here again!
The house was extremely well kept. There was plenty of room for the four of us and a little dog ! There is a dog friendly beach nearby. The backyard was also a great place to sit and relax. Would love to go back again.
Property was in excellent condition. Close to airline trail and close to dog park in Brewster. Great communication with host. Will definitely book again
We were thoroughly impressed with Dimitry’s place! Everything u need is here down to the smallest details. The beds were great and the home is impeccably clean. From the location of the home u can doing anything on the Cape!
Thanks for having us!
We traveled with our 2 dogs and it was great having a fenced back yard!
House is very nice, clean and beds are comfortable! I had brought a foam topper as I’d heard from previous reviews that beds were hard but they were great!
My family had a fantastic week at this house in Harwich. We appreciated the very close proximity to a quiet pond and also to great parks and the bike path in Harwich. It is also a short drive to both bay beaches and the national seashore. The neighborhood is quiet and nice for walking.
The house had all we needed for a week's stay and was very comfortable. Our dog loved the fenced in backyard and the sunroom. We were sad to leave!
My boyfriend and I stayed here for a week with our two dogs. The house was extremely welcoming and cozy, exactly what we had hoped for when staying at the Cape for the first time. The backyard was entirely fenced in which was very nice with the dogs, they had a private space to run around and have fun while we sat outside. The neighborhood was a cute place to walk around with plenty of trails, and multiple places to grab food under 10 minutes away. It was a wonderful experience and we would recommend this house to any couple or small family interested in staying on Cape Cod.
The location of this property is ideal for anyone looking to get around the Cape. So close to exit 82 (Hwy 6) yet in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood. The home is well appointed and clean. Most everything is there..just settle in. My only issue was the queen bed in the master...a bit too firm for my liking. Thank you D for hosting.
This comfortable house is ideal for a biking vacation. It is a short ride to the Cape Cod Bikeway. (If you’re on foot, walk to the circle at the end of Baker’s Drive and follow the woodsy path that takes you right to mile 4 on the bike trail.). The back yard has a shed for easy bike storage. It is entirely fenced in and is a great place for canine guests to run around.
Loved the place but the beds were like sleeping on cement slabs or bags of sand. I would love to come back but not with those beds.
Living room couch was not great.
Thank you for the opportunity to share this.
Perfect spot for us with our adult son and his dog. The fenced in yard was great for the dog. Extremely convenient to everything we needed on the Cape. Route 6 is right there. Check in was easy with the instructions we were provided. The beds were very comfortable. We had everything needed in the kitchen. There were plenty of towels and a sponge for cleaning dishes along with a dishwasher. I was glad that I brought a countertop cloth for wiping things down because there wasn’t one, an easy fix for sure. I would definitely revisit this property.
Great Location with Some Comfort Challenges for Larger Families
We recently stayed at this property and found several aspects we really enjoyed. The fenced-in backyard was perfect for our dogs, and we all enjoyed the outdoor shower. The provided linens, towels, shampoo, and soap were great, and the kitchen was well stocked with essentials. We especially appreciated the easy access to a new washer and dryer.
However, there were a few drawbacks. Although the property advertises that it sleeps 5, the house itself isn't very comfortable for that number of people. The dining area doesn't have enough seating for 5 to sit together, and the living room also lacks comfortable seating for 5. The biggest challenge was not having a full-size refrigerator, which made it difficult for a family of 5 who shopped and planned meals for the week. Additionally, the beds are a bit too firm for our taste.
Despite these issues, we would consider staying here again if some upgrades are made to make the home more comfortable for a family of 5 with three teenagers. The location is great, with the house being central to most of our favorite activities on the Cape.

We are sorry you didn't enjoy your stay. We try our best to provide our guests with an enjoyable vacation experience. We take extra time cleaning after every guest. We provide all the small necessities for free: linens, towels, shampoo, pots and pans, coffee, tea, beach chairs, that you will not find in commercially managed properties. Our house lists 5 people maximum, however with two bedrooms and a bunk bed, all clearly shown in the pictures, we really hoped it would be clear that we meant 2-3 adults with 2-3 kids for a maximum of 5 people. Teenagers are adults as far as sleeping space is concerned. Perhaps a 3 bedroom house would suit your vacation needs better in the future.
