This is a Cape Cod gem. We enjoyed the quiet of the private beach and the singing of the many birds. The property was spotless and much larger than we expected. We like that our fur baby was welcome too. Our hosts were amazing and so eager to make sure that we had all we needed and were comfortable. I would recommend this property to anyone looking to stay on the Cape. I wish I could give more than five stars.

We enjoyed our stay in Harwich in this wonderful place. The hosts are very nice and there is lots to do in that area. There is an excellent place to walk the dogs right down the road called Thompson's field. This is our 2nd year staying here and the unit is always very clean and comfortable.

Nicely decorated and clean. Host was friendly. The only thing is we didn't realize it was a basement apartment as we had searched for 'whole house.' There was some upstairs noise, but not awful. Overall a nice place to stay.

We hope that your single ⭐ was a mistake . Only one star is the worst response possible, and does not match the kind review you wrote. VRBO has tried to reach out to you to clarify your bad rating for your stay at our property. We hope it was inadvertently made. If we have done anything to displease you we certainly did not mean to . We have never had any of our guests award less than 5 ⭐✨🌟🌟🌟 stars in all catagories, and we would be deviated if we failed to please you. Please won't you respond to VRBO to correct your poor rating if it is an error
