Eastham, MA Vacation Rental

Our extended family had a great time at "The Big House" in Eastham, MA this past week in every way. The proximity to beaches and other area attractions was just as advertised. The pond located steps away from the house was even better than expected with the younger folks in our group fishing and swimming there almost every day. Our family is looking forward to our next vacation on the Cape already!

Perfect

Ideal location for us. The location and parking setup was extremely convenient for our large family. The game room, playground and pond made it extremely easy to keep our children happy whenever we were at the property. Host was outstanding and the house is setup perfectly. We couldn’t be happier!

Charming home in a beautiful setting

Our group (grandparents plus two families with children) spent a week in this lovely home. The weather was ideal, which meant we spent relatively little time inside, but the house was comfortable and met all our needs, with a well-stocked kitchen and space to accommodate the group throughout. We particularly appreciated the ground-floor main bedroom for the grandparents. We spent most of our time exploring the area, and it's a convenient location from which to do so -- in addition to visiting beaches (by car and bike), we did a whale-watching trip from Provincetown, a fishing trip from Dennis and a sunset cruise and ballgame in Hyannis. While at the house, we were generally at the large table outside, eating all our meals, playing games, and watching the children play. The pond was a huge plus and a nice break from the ocean-side beaches; we brought paddle boards with us, and the pond was the perfect spot to use them. Lauren was highly communicative throughout, and provided an immediate response on a couple of minor issues. It is an older home, but given the size, location and amenities, we thought it was a good value and would rent again.
