Little Gem with stunning water view of Great Bay and 1/4 mile from Bristol Beach

View stunning sunrises over Great Bay from your front lawn! Why rent a hotel room or B & B when you could rent this cute cape cottage located on a quiet street on the popular Maravista peninsula? It has a water view of Great Bay near a salt water inlet perfect swimming and kayaking. Master bedroom has queen bed, water view and tucked in en-suite 1/2 bath. Second bedroom has double bed. Eat in kitchen has water view and side door to outside shower (currently not enclosed). Large living room with double sofa bed for guests. Private side yard has gas grill, table and chairs. Relax on the large front yard with a view of the bay. Enjoy walking, running or biking on the picturesque great bay path. Take a scenic walk along the beach road to restaurants in Falmouth Heights or ride your bike from the house to the Island Queen or Shining Sea Bike Path. Downtown Falmouth is a short drive and the village of Woods Hole is 6 miles away. This house is rented WITHOUT linens.

Rustic seaside stay
We love the local ambiance of the neighborhood and water views of salt water Great Pond. We walked everywhere. The beaches are so close and pretty and have basic amenities. Falmouth is where our heart is and Paula made it easy and was there if we wanted anything. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Great little gem so close to the Bay and Ocean
This cute, clean and homey house was great for my daughter and I. We had the best time looking out at the bay from the windows. Riding our bicycles along the trail to the ocean was amazing. The house was super clean and neat. Eat in kitchen was great and well equipped to make a meal. Beds were so comfortable too. We loved staying here. Can’t wait too return.☺️

Great cottage and great location
My wife and I enjoyed our 5 night stay at the cottage. It's a great property and the location is convenient to the beach and the main drag in Falmouth, which is terrific. We would absolutely stay here again.

Better to be pleasantly surprised than let down
The property is conveniently located for any activity. It is quite small but manageable. Our biggest gaff was that the property was advertised as two BR and two baths. Not so. 1 - 1/2 baths. We would have passed this by had we known that. The second shower was outside with zero privacy screening. We also did not appreciate that the trash and recycle were each at least half full on our arrival.

Sweet little beach cottage
My husband and I stayed here in June for a long weekend. This cottage is so cute. The quintessential Cape Cod cottage. It’s small, but really was perfect in every way. Its well decorated, very clean, and has views of Great pond. It’s a short walk to a little beach on Great Pond - easy kayak launch. The owner stopped by and gave us a little history of the cottage, she was very hospitable and easy to communicate with. Bring your own linens, and paper products.

Great location, quiet neighborhood
This small seasonal cottage is as described in the listing. The location is excellent -- downtown Falmouth and plenty of shopping within a few miles, but the cottage itself is on a quiet dead-end road only a few blocks from the sea. The place was big enough for the two of us; it would be pretty cramped for 4 however. We had a few chilly nights in late September; the small single heater struggled to keep up, and unfortunately we were instructed not to use the fireplace. Kitchen gear was adequate, but there were no condiments/salt&pepper, etc. All-in-all, a good stay for a week in a lovely setting

Great Getaway
Smaller property, but big enough for the 3 of us. Walking distance to little local beach on inlet and a quick bike ride to larger beaches. Convenient location, but tucked away on super quiet street. Very clean.

Cute little cottage right by the bay. Older but charming.
Would rent again. These little gems might not be around in 5-10 years. People are buying them up to rebuild large homes. I’ll continue to rent and enjoy them while they exist. This was cute and great location. Paula was great to work with. Neighbors are nice.

wonderful and cozy cottage
My husband, daughter and I enjoyed our 5-night stay here. The weather was ideal - warm enough for the beach during the day and cool enough at night to leave the windows open and take advantage of breezes from the water. The cottage is rather small for 3 adults but we made it work. Having the extra half bath made a big difference. Beds were comfortable, kitchen had what we needed for simple meals, and grill worked well. I would definitely return!

Exceeded my expectations
Exactly as described but even better. Great location, close to anything you’d need but out of the way in a quiet neighborhood. A perfect getaway for me, my daughter and my mom. Paula was so helpful and went out of her way to give detailed info about things to do, where to eat, etc. Hope to return.

Great place to get away for a week
The property was a very nice cottage a short walk to the beach. There’s a big front yard and a small side yard with a nice propane grill. Beds were comfortable and there were plenty of soft pillows and blankets. Only downside was that there wasn’t any hand soap in the second bathroom, no toiletries and hardly enough TP for the first night. This wasn’t a big deal to us as we had brought these things. Paula was very nice and was communicative. She actually rents three houses in a row on the block.

Cozy Home, Perfect Location
This property is in an ideal Falmouth location - walking/biking distance to beaches, downtown shopping, and all kinds of restaurants/bars. The home comfortably slept 3 of us, and had some lawn space to relax and grill. Paula made the whole process very easy . . I would highly recommend staying here.
