Prepare favorite meals in the well-equipped kitchen. Helpful gadgets include a toaster oven and coffee maker. When you’re ready to eat, dine together at the table set for six.

Pool Time Fun
I rent a home every year for two of my sons and two granddaughters ages 6 & 7. They don’t know how to swim so I got them lifevests. The first day they went in the pool they loved it and by the end jumping around the deep end. House was so spacious one girl thought it was a mansion. We had the quiet suite downstairs which was amazing. And we all played ping pong in the basement. It brought back memories as a kid. So much room for the kids to play but not much time with them spending 8 hours a day in the pool. The kitchen had to much stuff in the cabinets we couldn’t put our stuff in it but it was fine. Nice deck out back but had no umbrella. We brought a pop up gazebo which worked well especially since the sliding door made the deck extremely hot. Awesome time was had by all!

Excellent home for a away-stay-cation
We took my parents and kids away for an anniversary weekend, intending to spend most of our time at the beach, but the house was so comfortable and the pool was perfect, we mostly hung at the house and LOVED IT. The house has two bedrooms upstairs and the office space, and the main bedroom is on the ground floor-perfect for my older parents who didn’t want to walk up and down stairs . The stairs are tucked away enough that we didn’t worry about our 1 year old crawling up them. Loved the house and quiet neighborhood, would definitely return.

A tranquil place to relax
This was our family’s annual vacation to Cape Cod. We typically stayed with our Boston family in Falmouth but elected to try something different and we were not disappointed. Great access to our traditional treks to Chatham, golf courses and the beach a short drive away was great. One can’t forget the heated pool as my Granddaughter as well as the rest of us enjoyed it every evening. The games and books available on site also provided us an additional enjoyment. Our family members in Boston that visited were very impressed with the property and location. Will look forward to next year.

Memories made
My husband and I, two sons, one daughter in law, and almost 4 year old granddaughter traveled from opposite ends of the country to be together. We enjoyed glorious weather, pool time, and playing games to create some wonderful memories. I was disappointed that the pool was not heated as promised and the fire pit was not functional, but otherwise, we loved the home. I did reach out to the manager and did not receive a satisfactory response. My granddaughter asked if we could stay forever! It will certainly be a forever memory.

Worth it
We were so pleased when we arrived. My mother (75) particularly enjoyed the downstairs suite because it was private but wasn't totally removed from the activity. Towels and sheets were provided and it was requested that we start a load of laundry at check out which was easy enough to do. It was a nice surprise to also see items like dish soap, trash liners, and sponges. The kitchen was well stocked with plates and cookware and some pantry items like salt and oil. We were happy to have labeled light switches, AC, and ceiling fans. The fire pit and heated pool were exceptional. It's the best house we've stayed in yet.

Nice house; bad management
Our family stayed for 3 nights recently and while the house was nice, dealing with Vacasa was difficult. The house is large with lots of room to spread out and relax, plus there is a finished basement for games and reading. Although we stayed in March and were not able to enjoy it, the house had a nice backyard with fire pit and pool. The problems we had were with the management company, Vacasa. From the time we made the reservation, it was difficult to communicate with them since they do not use the VRBO app for emailing and were always 5 days late with responses. Plus while we were in rental, we could not contact local team due to outdated information in binder in house. We had a problem with toilet in bedroom on main level and questions about operation of fireplace. The toilet was never fixed while we were there and no one ever contacted us back about our fireplace questions. We plan to never stay in another house managed by Vacasa after our experiences during this stay.

Golf Getaway
I stayed here with three golf buddies in late September. The house was well appointed. We enjoyed a late September swim and many hours around the outdoor fire pit. We cooked in the kitchen and on the grill and had all that we needed. There was plenty of space for the 4 of us. The neighborhood is quiet and there's much privacy in the backyard. I'll likely come again. D

Cape Cod holiday
The property is a large and well equipped family property with everything we needed and more. The pool and garden area are beautiful with shaded areas for hot days. We all enjoyed table tennis tournaments in the basement. The pretty town of Falmouth is a 20 minute drive and the closest beach is about 10 minutes away. We would certainly recommend for a family holiday.

First Time in Falmouth
My family are frequent visitors to the Cape and the Islands. This year we decided to come to visit Falmouth after a multi year absence. The house was immaculate and the location was convenient to all of the Cape and the Vineyard. We will be back to stay at this location and will recommend it to friends and family.

family vacation in Falmouth
We enjoyed the home and the location very much. It was spacious, clean and well equipped. It has been lived in with love. It did not contain the blender listed in the kitchen equipment which was unfortunate, as many of the recipes we had planned to cook required one . The house itself transmitted sound easily so it was easy to hear others walking and talking no matter how quietly. The management did not repair the damaged toilet seat in the upstairs bathroom, although they initially said they would do so.
