Ayman, we’re so glad your time on Cape Cod was a success. Please keep our place in mind for any future Cape vacations! It was a pleasure hosting you all.
Both the property and communication with the hosts were excellent. We loved the cozy back porch and outdoor areas. This property is centrally located and very comfortable. We would definitely stay again!

Sara it was a pleasure hosting you. Thank you for taking such great care of our place and leaving it in easy to clean condition. You are welcome back any time!
Th door lock was a challenge, but the owner responded immediately. The tiny step down from the living room to the dining room was not ideal. The house was clean and well supplied. We enjoyed our stay.

Charles I’m glad you stay was good and sad you felt the door lock (which you did figure out) warranted a less than perfect score for us! Going forward keep in mind these scores can be detrimental to renters and should reflect your overall experience which from what you shared with me, you were very pleased.
This home was in a great location for us to explore Brewster, the flats, the rail trail, shops, and nearby restaurants. The backyard was fabulous for throwing a ball around and to store our bikes, as well as access to a fire pit for great evenings outside!

So glad you enjoyed your stay at our “Escape Away” cottage Heather! We would love to host you all again any time!

Simply a great place. I won't spend time gushing so just know that we loved it and you will too. The only nitpick I had was there was no way to start a fire for backyard pit ( no matches and so on )and while there was bar soap, there wasn't any shampoo or the like. The place was so great that these two tiny details were the only thing I could find lacking.

Andrew so glad you had a great week here on the Cape. Thank you for leaving our place in easy to clean condition too!
I apologize about the matches and shampoo. Each bathroom has a basket under the sink with shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste, razors etc. I am sorry I didn’t check if we had run out. Thank you for the heads up! Likewise the matches should be in the kitchen drawer. I appreciate you mentioning these details! I’m on it!
This place is beautiful, and Karleen's prompt response made the entire trip experience lovely. Thank you for welcoming us to Cape Cod and into your beautiful, serene place.
Our trip to Brewster was the perfect winter getaway. The house was clean, updated, and in a great location. Karleen was an excellent host and had great recommendations for eating and activities. We will definitely be returning!

Karleen is a great host, communication was excellent. The house was perfect for our family, very spacious and so clean! The beds were very comfortable. The road is a little busy but we were not there enough for it to bother us. Would definitely stay again!

The property is lovely. Karleen was an incredibly accommodating and responsive host. It is a very comfortable place to stay. I loved the sunroom and the proximity to cute shops and beautiful beaches. Very clean and well equipped. We hope to come back again!
Karleen was helpful and responded right away when was needed. Clean vrbo with everything ready to go. Would stay again, especially if judging by its price point vs location.

Kathy I am sorry we only earned a 4! Would have loved to know what you were not happy with as we went out of our way to accommodate you even with your late checking out and damaging the towel bar. As you know our ratings are important to us, as they help travelers decide what property to choose out of the many good ones available. Please let me know what we could have done better as we are completely puzzled!
The cottage was in a perfect location on the cape -- close to both 6A and 6 which made it easy to get around to other parts of the Cape. Breakwater Beach was 3 minutes away which was a great place to watch the amazing bayside sunsets. The cottage was clean and comfortable, and we loved the layout. The host was warm and welcoming and was very responsive to our needs.
We had a great time reuniting with family in Brewster. We played board games, ate together, and went for family walks. We used the sand toys and chairs at Breakwater beach. We slept comfotably and enjoyed our stay. Thank you!!
