Fantastic home close to the water

Our family was thrilled with the cleanliness and size of the home and yard for our needs. All items required for our stag were available in the home. We were visiting the area for a family event and will definitely rent this home again when we come again!

Family Reunion

We enjoyed being back in Scituate to visit extended family and the house was located within walking distance of everyone we went up to visit. We had a great time showing off Scituate to our newest family members and plan to return next summer with the rest of our family.

Perfect beach getaway

Stayed for a week with family. The house is wonderful! Each morning we had coffee on the back deck and watched the local bunnies hop around! The house had comfortable beds and space to spread out. The outdoor shower was perfect after days at the beach. The kitchen was well stocked with all of the essentials to make our stay enjoyable. We will definitely be back! Thank you for a fabulous vacation!

Great Family Rental!

This property was a great fit for our family trip. The house was the perfect size for our family of 4 + grandparents. The yard was great for kids to run around and the swingset was a nice outlet. Surfside beach is a quick walk from the house. We'd definitely rent again!

Incredible family vacation house

The house was incredible and it comes with every possible amenity you need for a beach house vacation: beach chairs, corn hole, balls toys, towels, literally everything. This was the best house we rented in 5 years coming to Scituate. Will definitely be coming back.

Perfect family getaway

The house was very clean and well maintained and had all the amenities a family with small children could ask for. The back yard and play set was a big hit and the quiet street was great for after dinner walks. A bit of driving was involved but everything was within 20 minutes including great restaurants, bakeries, state park, playgrounds etc. Would definitely recommend to others and return for another stay!

Great, quiet beach house

We loved staying at this house! Often vrbo/other listing site's house or condo/apartment rentals leave something to be desired when compared to the description/pictures. Blake's Scituate property is NOT one of those experiences. Everything met or exceeded our expectations. The wetbar and family room are great because they are seperated enough from the rest of the house that it served as a spot to work or read while the family could watch movies in the living room on other side of house. Beds were comfy and the master bedroom has a nice ocean cross breeze when the evenings are cool. We'll be back!
