Family Beach Getaway

Centerville is the perfect, quiet, Cape getaway that we were looking for. Craigville beach was a 5 minute drive away and provided us with hours of entertainment. This house had everything we needed, and more. The kids loved being able to play in the downstairs finished basement while the adults enjoyed some quiet time on the back deck. We were able to make breakfast each morning and pack lunches for our beach days. We had planned on using the fire pit to make S'mores but the weather had other ideas. This was our second year at this residence and we have already booked next summer! Staying here has become our annual family tradition and we can't wait to come back again.

Wonderful stay in Centerville

Beautiful, comfortable house that had everything we needed for a great Cape vacation. Our party of 5 enjoyed the outdoor shower, used the grill, and appreciated the space this home provided. It’s about a 2 mile walk to Craigville Beach from the house and it is located in a beautiful secluded spot near a bog. Would highly recommend.

Roger's review of Dawn's Vrbo House

The house was everything described in the listing. It was a great place to stay with my family. We were quick to book the place again for next year. Thank you Dawn.

Best vacation rental experience

This was by far my best vacation rental experience. This includes my family’s experience as well. We loved the house and attention to details for every little thing. We felt at “home” throughout our stay. If and when we visit the Cape again I am definitely going to rebook this property. We were so impressed with the house, decor, comfort, and all the amenities in the house. We are also very grateful for Dawn’s proactive communication and overall generosity. Loved our stay!

About the host

Hosted by Dawn R.

I always gravitate back to the ocean. I was born on Martha's Vineyard, but grew up in California and raised our family in Northborough, Massachusetts. Now that we are retired, I have once again found my way back to the ocean! I love to travel but always look forward to coming home.

Why they chose this property

Not knowing where we wanted to buy a house on the Cape, we looked from one end of the Cape to the other. When we saw our Centerville house - so perfectly located in the middle of the Cape - we knew we had found a place to make memories.

What makes this property unique

After years of looking for a vacation property, we fell in love with the house as soon as we saw the complete privacy of the property! The meticulous interior and spacious outdoor patios and decks were the clincher!
