We enjoyed our stay in Sandwich. The host was accommodating. The cottage is simple but perfect for a simple relaxing family trip. There were others around but it felt very quiet and uncrowded. The road in was a little rough so take it slow. We enjoyed painting rocks and adding them to those of previous guests. But perhaps the best part of the cottage was the story of the history behind it!

We are so glad you had a relaxing stay. Our cottage was built with love and we love that you could feel that and enjoy the history. We are one of a relative handful of true old Cape Cod cottages left and we are blessed. Thank you for your nice review and for staying with us.

The location to the beach is excellent, which is why we chose this cottage. The property has 3 cottages on it and this cottage was the furthest from the beach. The beach is private for the property. The shore is very rocky so we wore water shoes into the water. The cottage comes with 2 beach chairs that are shared with the 2 other cottages and were being used each time we went to the beach so we ended up buying chairs for our use. As far as the cottage itself, on the plus side, it was clean, the bed was comfortable, the WiFi worked well, and the mini-split did a fairly decent job of keeping the place cool (the temperature most days was in the 80’s and 90’s). And we did enjoy reading the information left about the family that built the house and still owns it. On the downside, the house and most of the furnishings are old and tired. A chair was broken (my husband fixed it) and the toaster was rusted. Even the brooms in the cottage’s only closet had seen better days. I’m sorry to give such a lukewarm review to this cottage as we really wanted to like it. But when you can’t open the windows because of the holes in the screens, it does take away from your enjoyment of being there.

We do our very best to describe our cottage accurately and encourage our tenants to let us know personally during the week if there is a problem. I was honestly unaware of any holes in the screens as I was opening windows with no problems a few weeks before this. Much of our furniture is antiques… things made or purchased 100 years ago by my ancestors. I mention this and it is all pictured in our photos. The vast majority of renters have a wonderful vacation, with many rebooking the following year, and leave messages such as this that we received yesterday: “Hi Jean. We are in. This place is absolutely charming. My husband teared up a bit and said it reminded him of the cottages his Nana used to rent as a kid. We are looking forward to the week.” We love sharing our place with those looking for a traditional beach cottage on Old Cape Cod. If that is what you are looking for we welcome you to spend a week… or two.

Peaceful private beach and just what we needed!

We had a wonderful week here in East Sandwich! We enjoyed the beach where often we were the only ones on and relaxed either at the cottage at night or ventured off. The area is very private, very quiet. The beach is a quick walk through a small path right from the cottage. I would recommend bringing water shoes for both adults and kids because there are areas on the beach where you will need them when heading down to the water. II also recommend wearing them in the water. Walking the beach in the morning is breathtaking. The stay was relaxing, peaceful and so enjoyable. We would definitely come back!
