We had such an amazing stay! There’s so much space for a big group and we were all very comfortable. The outdoor space was breathtaking as well and we were less than a 10 minute walk to the beach. I would definitely recommend this property for your next group trip.

This gorgeous historic home in Falmouth turned out to be perfect for our annual family get-together (4 children, 6 adults). Everyone had their own bedroom and each family had a bathroom. There were so many thoughtful touches throughout that we felt like part of an old New England family. High-end appliances in the kitchen and laundry room. An easy walk to the Point where we watched many sunsets. We all loved the wraparound porch with rocking chairs. The outdoor shower was great after the beach. Our host, Melissa, was gracious and responded promptly. Altogether an unforgettable experience!

Best Bachelorette Stay!! We had the absolute best weekend. The house is beautiful, the instructions covered everything and we were so pleasantly surprised by the beach access. So many of us took the opportunity to take a swim. Perfectly relaxing and gorgeous home. With the beautiful grounds we also had backyard hibachi - truly was the best weekend and would book again!!

The house was perfect for our girls weekend! A beautiful porch big enough for everyone to have dinner and watch the sunset. We were pleasantly surprised by the private neighborhood beach - but would recommend bringing water shoes as it is a bit rocky. The house was fully equipped with everything we could have needed & Melissa was a great host!

We had a wonderful time at this spacious and charming home! Everything was immaculate and the house is beautifully appointed. Check in was simple and I was able to easily contact the owner when we had a question! The access to the beach is a lovely walk down the street to a neighborhood beach (with an adorably active osprey nest!) I actually cannot say enough about how great our stay was at this beautiful home!

About the host

Hosted by Melissa Billings

Host profile image
We are the fourth generation of our family to own this house. It has so much history, love, and joy in it! In fact, we've included QR codes next to many items in the house so you can have fun reading the history and/or stories about the house and the family.

Why they chose this property

Gunning Point, when my great grandfather first bought this house had only 5 residences on it! Can you imagine?! In fact, in our house you can see some photos from back then. While there are more houses on the street, it is still a serene, quiet neighborhood, perfect for getting away from it all while only being 10 minutes from Woods Hole or the center of Falmouth.

What makes this property unique

Our house has the perfect blend history and new amenities. Enjoy the beautiful original woodwork, the curved walls, the small historical details while also having a contemporary kitchen with new appliances and usb towers for all of your electronics. Have fun using the QR codes around the house to learn about the history of the house and fun stories!
