Thanks so much for your lovely review! We're so glad you had an amazing time and got to enjoy the beach and some great local spots. It means a lot to us that you had a memorable stay. Hope to welcome you back soon!
Great rental! We spent 2 weeks at the Family Retreat. We love Harwich and it was so close to our favorite beach, Pleasant Road. Quiet neighborhood, house was amazing and kitchen had everything you needed. Check in so easy with the passcode, and great to have the AC on the warmer days.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed your two-week stay at the Family Retreat and loved Harwich, especially Pleasant Road beach. We’re glad the quiet neighborhood, fully equipped kitchen, and easy check-in made your stay comfortable, and that the AC was helpful on the warmer days. We’d love to welcome you back anytime!
Beautiful house and backyard in a lovely and quiet neighborhood! House was clean, updated and perfect for my family and little dog. We will definitely be back!

Thanks for staying with us! Looking forward seeing you in 2025!
We had a wonderful time at this house! It is centrally located and perfect for a family of five – it could comfortably hold at least two more if not 4 with the pullout couch in the basement. This property was clean and tidy, beautifully decorated, and just perfect for our needs on vacation! Will definitely book again!

The check-in was seamless. All was exactly as portrayed on the listing. House was very clean with good quality bedding and towels. Large and lush yard with nice fire pit. Very quiet neighborhood - close to beaches, restaurants and shops. Definitely would recommend staying at this property.

This home is exceptionally clean, and the pictures are very accurate. The beach was a three minute drive from the home and the owner supplied enough household samples to get you started the first couple of days. The yard was immaculate, and there were beach chairs and umbrellas available for use. Would definitely rent here again!

Great house, great Town
The only complaint is that check in was difficult and frustrating. The digital door lock is unlike anything I've every used and the person I spoke with didn't fully explain how it worked. After that is was smooth sailing. Harwich is a lovely town, the neighborhood is safe and quiet, the house was every bit as good at the pics. Now that I know how the lock works I would absolutely go again.

Thank you for your review, We understand the lockbox may be a bit frustrating to those who have never used it. Though your check in was a little early we hope you enjoyed every other aspect of your stay. We will take your feedback to heart and communicate the lockbox instructions more clearly for future guests. Thank you and we hope to see you again soon.
