Beautiful. Just make sure to check address with host: there is another very similar address only a mile or two away which is not correct, and some map apps will navigate to the wrong one when clicking on the (otherwise correct) address given in the property details.

Very clean and spacious. Many kitchen/bath extras, which were appreciated. Quiet and private location at the end of a private road. No swans though, for our stay. Kept saying “Queue the Swans” to no avail.

This was our first time to the Cape (Oh my, why??). We greatly appreciated the fenced yard for the dogs. There was a water bowl ready and waiting when we walked in!Though we spent most of our time out and about (beaches are dog-friendly this time of year), the time here was made more relaxing knowing that our dogs were with us. The sunrises are fabulous! Swans are indeed there, along with other water birds. Quite picturesque, awesome...The sunsets, reflected across the pond, are super too!. Although we did not use the patio, firepit, or water access, it looked well-kept and added to the ambiance. This is certainly a location to consider for a return stay )

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful home on the pond! The view was stunning and so peaceful, it made for the perfect backdrop to our long weekend. I was initially a little nervous about bringing our toddler given the waterfront location, but the yard was thoughtfully and securely fenced in. It gave us peace of mind without taking away from the amazing view.The house itself was clean, comfortable, and spacious—ideal for our family. We also loved how close it was to the beach and nearby recreational areas. Everything we needed for a relaxing and fun weekend was right at our fingertips. 10/10 recommend this property, make sure you catch a sunrise over the pond!

This was our 2nd stay at this fabulous Swan Pond cottage! Located down a dirt road, adjacent to a wildlife filled marsh, the serene setting with beautiful pond views is so peaceful and quiet. We enjoyed rowing the canoe down to Clancey's and then stopped at the island to watch hundreds of baby crabs as they darted about and into holes in the sand. Lazy afternoons reading in the hammock, evenings by the fire pit, enjoying the rainbow after an afternoon storm in addition to the sunrises & sunsets added to the experience on Swan Pond. The owners, Peggy & Russ, have created a wonderful escape from the everyday craziness of life. The cottage is clean, well equipped and dog friendly. I enjoyed our walks every morning & evening and we look forward to next year and another perfect vacation!

A truly dream stay at this cottage on Swan Pond! From the moment we arrived we were enchanted and thrilled by its decor, light and amenities. Clean and comfortable, it was the perfect place with which to begin and end the day with its charming cozy tranquility. Fantastic kitchen, working fireplace, and lovely outdoor deck, it felt like home right away, including for my dog Luna who kept finding cute spots where she could curl up. We all slept like babies at night in the beautifully appointed rooms, and woke to lovely sunrises over the pond. Location allowed us to easily explore many towns on the Cape by car. And returning to the cottage, along the winding country road, from our adventures at the end of the day, felt like we had a secret gem. I want to thank our host Peggy for all her easy, helpful communication. You have something so special here. Thank you for sharing it. We hope to make staying at your Cottage on Swan Pond a tradition in the years ahead…- Michael

We really enjoyed staying at Peggy’s pretty hideaway on Swan Pond. Loved being right on the water - great view and it was easy to get our kayaks in and out for a paddle. House was very clean and comfortable. Highly recommend!
