You'll love this quiet, charming, oceanfront, restored 1920s cottage with updates on a private dirt road. This is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the sea. You'll wake up each morning greeted by exceptional views of Cape Cod Bay, and possibly seals sunbathing on the nearby rocks. The private beach is accessible via stone steps next door, and a short walk on a country road brings you to two conservation beaches for walking and swimming. You may also escape to Cape Cod (the bridge is five miles down the road) or head up to historic Plymouth for the day.

If you're a fan of early American history, Plymouth is the perfect getaway! Visit Plimoth Plantation, a replica of the original village first settled in 1620. Don’t forget Plymouth Rock and the replica of the Mayflower soon to be returning. Situated in Pilgrim Memorial State Park, the rock is believed to be the spot where the Pilgrims first stepped foot on American soil. A ship- and rope-building mecca in the 19th century, Plymouth today boasts myriad historical sites, colonial architecture, shopping venues, and over 400 restaurants. The cottage is also five miles from the Sagamore Bridge, so you can also enjoy Cape Cod's beaches, quaint seaside villages, and wonderful seaside restaurants.

Fantastic view, cant say enough about sunrise and sunset. Nice away from it all spot close enough to places to go fora really good balance. The road in isa back road on the cape going any faster than 5mph will rattle you around but totally worth the slow roll in.

I will miss the seals
We thoroughly enjoyed the stay at this location right on the water. The road there was interesting as it is narrow and bumpy with tall weeds on both sides. But once you arrive, it is just breathtaking. The home was just right for us and our needs. The only suggestion to the homeowners is to provide better dishes, cups, and mugs. The gentleman next door was incredibly sweet and kind, as was his dog, Luna. You will enjoy the sound of the ocean tides and the seals. We got a kick out of watching and listening to them fight over who would be king of the rock. I highly recommend this spot.

Remarkably Mediocre
The location and the views are almost enough to give this property a higher rating, but not quite. The lane to the house winds through a dense, marshy area, and the house itself sits high up above the beach with a beautiful view of the Atlantic. We saw harbor seals basking every day, as well as many birds and boats. The ocean breeze was delightful, especially at night because the house has no AC. There were a few floor fans available (could use more ceiling fans) in the house to help with the heat, but they hadn't been cleaned in ages and were caked with dust. On the surface it seemed as though things had been wiped and vacuumed, but a closer look revealed that the effort was hurried at best. Many cobweb corners, spiders and flies, stained carpets and baseboards, and every window sill was in dire need of cleaning. The interior of each disorganized kitchen cabinet featured crumbs and dust, and the basement, which we were asked to venture into for loading laundry & disposing of trash was from a horror movie chase scene. A deck chair in the enclosed patio was broken beyond repair and a framed mirror sitting on a dresser was also broken. No way to let owner know - only robotexts. Many windows and one sliding door had broken locks. The decor is tired and old, old magazines and several buckets of rocks and odd other broken bits of things, cabinets left open or don't close. House could be a base for excursions, but would not recommend for a comfortable stay.

Way Too Hot to Enjoy
The location, cleanliness and quaintness of the cottage were great. Check-in was a breeze. But the positives end there for us. It was insanely hot in the cottage upon arrival and with little breeze we were unable to cool it down inside despite all of the fans. Sleeping was pretty miserable both nights and we were unable to stay long in the morning and enjoy the space because as soon as the sun rose the cottage became a hot box. Literally we were dripping in sweat by 9:00 am. Additionally, the three stars comes from the fact the alarm system went off at 11:00 pm. It was super loud and kept saying, “evacuate now.” We called the contact listed and VRBO “put in a ticket” and said someone would call back. We called 911 and the fire department came and cleared the place. They said that dirt and cobwebs were affecting the alarm sensors. Kids were terrified and crying as we sat outside in pitch black waiting for the fire department to arrive. Guess who we never heard back from? VRBO or the property owners. But we did get reminded to leave a great review about our stay. 😳

Quick summer getaway
We enjoyed the stay. The view was the best part. We got to watch seals and the vessel traffic. We enjoyed exploring the rocky beach at low tide and watching the tide cycle. House was fine for our needs. A few more glasses and mugs that were not chipped would have been nice. The move out instructions asked for us to start the laundry however there was no laundry detergent. Overall a relaxing stay at a vintage shoreside summer cottage.

Perfect getaway!
My husband and I visited in late October and were so happy we chose this home. The coastal view was unreal and the seals popping up were so special and we got a lot of enjoyment watching the local bird life as well! On a clear night the moon and stars shown so brightly over the water it was incredible. On our last day we chatted with the neighbor who is also the owner and learned some fun information about the house and life on the coast. Please know that the road to get to the house in unpaved and unlit but our mini suv rental handled it just fine. I can’t recommend that stay highly enough!

Horrible Experience
Property location was wonderful, but nothing else was good. We killed over 50 spiders during our stay and when we tried to communicate with the management company we got the run around. We didn't have enough towels for each person for our 4 day stay. House was dirty and had cobwebs and spiders living in each and every corner of the house. The furniture was also covered in webs. There was a vase of flowers that had been dead for awhile and the moldy water was also left.

This is a charming cottage right on the water. My husband and I spent 4 nights there in October. Weather was gorgeous, and it was a great base for visiting Cape Cod, Plymouth, Boston and surrounding areas. The road in from the highway is a bit rustic, but worth the effort!

Beautiful view. Terrible bed
The view was beautiful and the location rustic and charming. The porch was a restful and beautiful place to enjoy the view. Our grand children loved it. That being said…. An innkeeper should know how to put together a bed. The mattress was foam and looked fairly new. A foam mattress needs to be supported by a box spring or platform. There were significant depressions where it was not supported by the few slats that held it up. In addition there was no mattress pad or mattress protector on it… just a thin sheet, which makes me concerned about the cleanliness. I asked about it because of bad reviews and they said they checked on it and it was ok. The kitchen was poorly organized.

We loved the location, privacy, and the sound of seals in the morning! Well stocked and comfortable! Our only criticism is that you should invest in new mattresses. They were quite lumpy.

25th Anniversary
The property location was an absolutely stunning area. It was peaceful, quiet, and private. The view of the ocean was what we needed to sit back, relax, and enjoy together time. The seals brought so much joy every day, to see them bobbing their heads and frolicking in their environment was priceless. The view from the main bedroom was stunning, especially as the sun rose, again just peaceful and serene. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend to family and friends. There were a few easy things to be fixed, that would make a huge difference to the vacationers. Weeding needs to be done, weeds were growing into stairs going to main door, and the weeds growing in front of the deck need to be cut, they were causing many bugs to be flying and crawling around us as we tried to watch the ocean in the evening. The side yard was also overgrown and needed to be weeded and mowed. There needs to be a working clock in the house. The ones that were there had no battery. Lastly the mattress in the main bedroom needs to be replaced... To have a beautiful property like this with a very restless sleep just does not do justice for the renter. With these few fixes this property would be perfect.

Just what we hoped for
Booked this property purely because of the reviews that seals sunbathed on the rocks off the beach. They were there daily - on the rocks or even just visibly swimming by at high tide! Their barking was not bothersome at all. The private drive is very bumpy and single lane but the location was private, quiet, and very scenic. Centrally located to various attractions and towns. Property is somewhat rustic and bathrooms are small. Master bed had a sizable mattress dip but was avoidable. The deck is a little narrow and wish the railing extended all the way around for safety. Overall the experience greatly outweighed what may be perceived as things lacking. Loved it.

We enjoyed magnificent ocean views from glassed in porch the most. The one way road to property is a little rocky but no problem with food delivery. The sofa's back was to the Ocean, it be better against the side wall facing the TV to enjoy both. When the tide was out my sister and I loved walking to and from Ellisville National park.

The dirt road is something you really need a truck for, our Lincoln MKZ made it but OMG. The beds were comfortable but the sheets smelled musty. You go for the view and the quietness, we went to visit family in the general area and wanted to stay by the water, which is basically 15 ft from the back of the house. We would stay again. Bring a Keurig if you like your coffee that way.

Wonderful Location!
This house is in a great location, right on the water. There were seals on the rocks at low tide every day and lots of birds and other wildlife to watch. The deck and porch were wonderful! The house was also central to everywhere we wanted to go, but was a nice, quiet escape. The house was accessed by an unpaved, one-lane road but our Subaru did just fine. There is no AC, but plenty of fans were provided and it was always a good temperature. There were a few bugs, flies and a few spiders, but overall it was quite clean. We would definitely stay here again!
