Matt and Elyse's home is just magical. The kids loved their whimsical carriage house, which was renovated thoughtfully and stylishly. Situated on a freshwater pond, we had a blast canoeing out to long pond and spending the evening together on the quiet beach. We hope to be back next year!

Excellent VRBO
Matt and Elyse were high accommodating and responsive. The carriage house had a lot of charm and was perfect for what we needed. The dirt road to the house was a bit rough, but other than that, a very good stay.

A great stay
This is one of our favorite VRBO experiences. The guest house, which faces the main house, is clean and well appointed. The setting is idyllic and good for kids, with ample property to explore, including 2 ponds with canoes and kayaks. Brewster itself is fairly low-key, but you can access the rail trail, beaches and other parts of the Cape with a 10-30 min drive. Communication is excellent, and owners Matt and Elyse are great - welcoming, but not intrusive. We're already plotting a return.

Peaceful week on the Cape
The house is well designed and even prettier in person; we had everything our family of five needed for the week. Beds were comfortable. Kayaks and canoe were fun to use for the five minute trip across the pond to the swimmable fresh water lake - which my kids (ages 9-15) did almost every day. The house is centrally located between charming Brewster and vibrant Chatham, a little closer to Brewster. The best swimmable open ocean beaches were about 25 minutes away, and we did find the trek worth it - especially for my two active teens. All three kids also spent a fun day taking surf lessons with Sacred Surf School, which the owners’ son owns. The owners, Matt and Elyse, live right next door and were communicative and helpful. Lovely home base for the week!

A place to forget about everyday life issues....
This house tells a story of 200 years and is so well maintained and very cozy. We greatly enjoyed being part of that story as we felt transported back in time. The property is quiet and peaceful and was perfect for us to rest and relax and enjoy the attractions of Cape Cod. We spent a lot of time at the beaches, which are a short drive away. Our stay at the "Carriage House" with two different ponds with paddleboats, kayaks and canoes kept our 13 and 16 year old boys busy. The kitchen and bathroom are totally new and very nice. Elyse and Matt cared so well for us with coffee beans and other kitchen basics and even brought us a deck of playing cards on (the only) rainy day. We were welcomed with flowers and a bottle of wine. They were happy to help us out in any way. We felt like we were in paradise with the tranquil, beautiful setting and all the fun things to do on Cape Cod close by. Too sad that our days on Cape Cod went by so quickly.

Not a property for us
I will start off by saying this is an absolutely beautiful home. Well cared for, well restored, clean. This part of the description was in fact accurate…
My husband and I are 50 somethings from CT. We rented this home in January for our family of 4 for two weeks. Our children are grown and we knew they would not be able to come for the full time, but wanted them to have a room for when they could.
Our daughter ended up having emergency surgery just prior to the trip, so she ended up joining us for the full first week. We had already invited 2 family members up for a few days, before knowing our daughter would also be there. When I book a home that accommodates 6 with the intention of only having 4, I have never had it be an issue if there was an additional guest for a few nights (staying within the 6 limit).
Potential renters should be aware of the following about this rental:
1). There is an additional, non-refundable insurance fee required when renting. Not the usual refundable security deposit.
2) Owner’s home is less than 100 feet from the door of this house. The view from the deck is the owners home. If they are entertaining, you get this as your view.
3) You do not get the full house. There is an unfinished area occupying approximately half of the main floor (the area with the big barn door). This contains some of owners items (which are accessed daily), as well as a sleeping area for owners guests. Owners daughter stayed in the unfinished part of the rental for 3 days of our stay. Walls are thin - sound carries.
4). Owner says he ‘has to know’ of anyone you choose to come to the rental property. We were caught off guard upon returning from the beach with family with an inquiry on who was there and how long they were staying. This made the rest of the stay very uncomfortable.
5) Property listing indicates it accommodates 6. There is a pull out couch that realistically would only accommodate 2 small children in sleeping bags or 1 adult. There is no way to put sheets on this sofa (it is an odd layout when folded out).
6) There are no more than 2 parking spots at this property. Hard limit. Owner was able to find accommodations for our kids additional cars, however, this is not guaranteed.
Cape Cod is a wonderful place to be, and we have stayed there and in Brewster many times before. Had we known any of the above items prior to booking, we would not have chosen this home for our stay.

A peaceful retreat with water view
This was our first time using Vrbo , what a great find.. While it is so close to everything - less than 10 min. to super market, local bakery, restaurants, local town beach, rail trail ..., the carriage house (authentic and well appointed ) itself is hidden away on this serene lake (pond) front property via a narrow private road. we are very happy to find this home away from home for a week and it is everything we have hoped for.
We have a family of 5 with three young adult children , we enjoyed the lake as much as the beach, we swam , canoed and relaxed in the stillness and quiet that the property has offered.
We were surprised on our last night with a huge rising golden moon over the shimmering lake , truly memorable. My oldest daughter later told me that she actually went out late at night just to be immersed in this magical light..
The host Matt and Elyse are very gracious and so easy to communicate , checking in and out are so easy.
It was a truly special stay!

Wonderful, quaint, and convenient spot to enjoy Brewster
Our family of four throughly enjoyed our stay. The pretty carriage house was clean, comfortable and perfect for our group. The pond was great fun for canoeing and paddle boarding. We didn't fish, but it looked like a great spot for it. The house is so convenient to the beautiful beaches and attractions of Brewster as well as the surrounding Cape towns. The hosts were very helpful, kind and pleasant to deal with! Highly recommend.

Peaceful lakeside retreat
We had a wonderful week at this very special property. It’s a beautifully renovated carriage house across the lawn from the main house with a tranquil view of a quiet neighborhood pond. Perfect size for a family with plenty to entertain the kids outside. After a long day at the beach, it was wonderful to return to this little paradise tucked away from the summer hustle and bustle. The owners are extremely gracious and generously share with their guests all the amazing amenities this property offers including access to two different lakes with a number of different boats to choose from. We could have easily stayed another week just to get to enjoy it all!

Big HUNK of HEAVEN!
This home is the epitome of DIVINE! Beautiful renovation of a magnificent carriage house - every amenity - on a beautiful estate; set on a pond with a stunning garden and beaches and swimming ponds at your fingertips. Special hosts who shared their garden vegetables and were generous about questions. We are world travelers with a home in Europe and we sincerely appreciated the thoughtfulness that went into everything that made this a paradise!

Brewster Retreat
The beautiful Carriage House has so much character and little touches to make it very comfortable. It is a wonderful, secluded, peaceful retreat with a beautiful view of the pond. The fishing (which my 12 year old son and husband enjoyed), kayaking, canoeing, and swimming make it a great summer location. The owners, Matt and Elyse, were so helpful with info on nearby restaurants, walking and biking trails. They made us feel so welcome and at home. We left feeling relaxed and happy. We hope to be back again soon.

This property has been in our family since 1969. We live and in the Boston area and have two grown children. We have countless fond memories of summers here.
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
This property is extraordinary and unique. It is very old property with a historic home and carriage house with large lawns and a beautiful view. It has exceptional privacy and serenity. For those who love swimming in the ponds, it is ideal. The large deck is a wonderful feature and is great for visiting, hanging out, eating and stargazing. The house is also centrally located to many of Cape Cod's amenities, including Chatham (15 minute drive), Wellfleet (25 minute drive), Cape Cod Bay, and Nantucket Sound .
この宿泊施設の特徴
This house is unique in that (1) it has pondfront and there is a sandy public beach on a large pond just a short canoe ride away; (2) it is exceptionally private as it is located on seven acres of land, most of which is protected conservation land; and (3) the house is historic yet newly renovated.
