Beautiful Waterfront-Relaxin' on the River!

Relax in this rambling Swan River retreat while the tides go in and out. Relish the multiple window views of river and marsh. Fish, sunbathe, or launch your kayak from the 60-foot private dock. Identify wildlife in its natural habitat - hawks, seabirds, and smaller birds that alight on the deck to feed.

Enjoy every amenity in this fully renovated ranch decorated in nautical style with wood laminate flooring throughout. Lounge in the spacious living room/kitchen below the vaulted ceiling. Settle in the family room to build a puzzle, read, or watch TV. Escape to the master suite with queen-size bed, two-person jacuzzi, shower bath, TV, and deck overlooking the river. One guest bedroom has queen-size bed, the other twin bunk beds, and guest bath has full tub. A fully enclosed outdoor shower offers bathing under the stars.

Within walking distance are restaurants, coffee house, antique shop, boat rental, and convenience store. Just over a mile away in Dennisport village are more antique and gift shops plus large grocery store. Close by are great golf courses and, of course, Dennis' famous beaches on both north and south sides. A bit beyond is the entire glorious Cape.

Great spot on the river in Dennis!
The location of this riverfront cottage can not be beat. We enjoyed morning coffee on the back deck overlooking the beautiful river views. Although the location was central and convenient to the Cape, the home and surrounding area were peaceful and private. The cottage decor was even more impressive than in the online photos. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to come back again!

Comfortable, Scenic, and Calming!
We are three friends and colleagues for 50 years. What a lovely accomodation for our mini-reunion. The home is cozy, immaculate, well appointed and charming. The location is peaceful and shady. The river view is wonderful! The TV 's were a challenge for we "older" folk, but we figured it out. The host, could not be nicer! 5 Stars!

Lovely house
We had a wonderful, relaxing time at the house. The location is excellent, with a beautiful view and feeling of being surrounded by nature, and yet just a couple minutes walk from Kream and Kone, Dunkin', and many other stores. The kitchen was well-stocked with pots/pans -- we had everything we needed. Overall a lovely house. Would definitely stay there again!

Nice and peaceful
We had a great relaxing weekend here. House is very comfortable and well equipped. Kids enjoyed the games and we enjoyed the puzzles. The sunrise is amazing, and I could sit and watch the water for hours. One note: the master bedroom is not well heated and was colder than the rest of the house. That was not a big issue for us, as we went there only to sleep.

What a view!!
We enjoyed our stay tremendously. We could have sat the porch all day to enjoy the breath taking view of Swan River. My husband loved kayaking from the private dock. Very conveniently located walking distance to restaurants and stores. The owner was easily available if we had questions. We would definitely book again.

Comfortable and sparkling clean riverside home.
The property was absolutely beautiful! Great care was obviously taken to make the space comfortable and relaxing. I have stayed in many rentals over the years and have never arrived to such a sparkling clean space. I was also impressed by the thoughtful and throrough owner.

Fabulous location, immaculate home
We watched the sunrise over the water every morning, and the moon every evening. From the deck, we watched swans, egrets, great, blue heron, green heron, kingfishers, cormorants, and a variety of backyard birds at the feeder. The kitchen was well equipped for the nights we ate in, and there were fabulous restaurants within 20 minutes in any direction. We’ll be back!!

Beautiful place on the water
This was a beautiful and clean house with a really remarkably lovely view of the Swan River. A group of college friends and I needed a place to stay for the weekend. This house had plenty to do for the pre-teens among us, while also having lots of places for the grownups to sit and talk. The location was perfect - everything close by - and it was a great pleasure to be able to explore the channels of the river. The house was super-clean and well-equipped and the owners were very helpful and responsive. Would totally stay again!

Beautiful Home and View
My family and I had a wonderful time at River Run. The home is beautiful, clean, spacious, well-appointed, and comfortable. Nothing beats the view of the river from the deck, and the large glass doors/windows allow you to feel connected while relaxing inside the home. My 3 & 7 year old daughters enjoyed kayaking, birdwatching, feeding the ducks, toasting smores by the fire. The location is fantastic as well, we found Dennis to be very central to everywhere we wanted to go during our stay on the Cape. Kelly was terrific, provided all the info and recommendations we needed and very responsive during our stay. Five stars!

Lovely Swan River Retreat!
This cottage is one of the best rentals we have ever had! The house was immaculate and beautifully furnished but not fussy. We were a party of 6 older adults and there was plenty of comfortable seating with views of the river. We enjoyed cooking in the well-stocked kitchen, eating together, doing puzzles, watching movies (brought our own dvd player) playing games. There was plenty of storage space in the kitchen and bedrooms. The appliances worked well and were modern. The bedrooms were very comfortable and serene. The houses are close together on the street but looking out back you would never know it. Just a splendid view of sunrises over the river. Loved watching egrets, swans, mergansers, and kingfisher along with familiar backyard birds. Kate was so helpful and attentive - the perfect hostess. We hope to come back!

Peace at Year's End
The essential, glorious thing to know is this: River Run off-season is balm for the soul. The house is spacious, light-filled, warm and cozy ... so much so that once in the door, you never want to leave. The view out toward the river is eternal yet ever-changing. We were mesmerized by the ducks, geese and other birds foraging for winter food. And then there's the sunrise...gorgeous and worth setting your alarm for! I'm sure the house is wonderful in the summer but, honestly, in the winter it's pure perfection. Thank you for letting us stay. We came away rested and at peace. What could be better?

Pull up a seat and enjoy the view!
What a wonderful spot on the Swan Pond River! You couldn't ask for a more beautiful, peaceful spot to enjoy a cup of morning coffee among nature! We had plenty of privacy yet had neighbors right next door. Besides the wonderful setting, the home is lovely and clean! It is light, bright and cheery! The beds were comfy! The ac works great! Water pressure is wonderful! The outdoor shower was a plus as we have kids that were looking for critters and were a mess and obviously couldn't come in the house like that. The house is a quick ride 5 min ride to the grocery store. 7 eleven and the liquor store are maybe a 4 min easy walk. We explored Paine's Creek, Mayflower Beach, Skaket Beach, Chatham Harbor and Main Street. All beautiful! None very far at all. Kelly was amazing! Communication, understanding were excellent! We will be back if she will have us!❤
