Experience the quieter side of cape cod. Scenic route 6A is chock full of antique shops and some of New England’s finest boutiques. The tree-lined winding road will bring you to many of the area’s finest restaurants while passing through some of America’s oldest villages.

“Landscapes, like beauty, may well be colored by the eye of the beholder, but steering along tree-shaded route 6A on a mild summer day, with blue inlets of cape cod bay on one side and white picket-fenced houses on the other, I’m tempted to conclude this may be the most appealing stretch of America I know.”
–Jonathan Kandell, Smithsonian Magazine, April 2005

Excellent location for easy access to beaches bike trails and marshes
We had a beautiful week weather wise. The house had plenty of games puzzles and bikes as well as kayaks available which we took advantage of. Bathroom shower curtains/ doors not the greatest but overall a very nice place to stay . Loved the outdoor shower and jacuzzi. Would definitely rent again!

First Cape Rental
This house is a beautiful rental property, my family and I could not believe it was pet friendly. There was plenty of room for my parents, 80 pound family dog, and me and my fiancé. Sunsets were beautiful especially if you walked down the street a bit to look over the marsh. The hot tub in the morning looking over the tall marsh grass with bright blue skies was very peaceful. The house had everything you could need. Plus it is only a mile from some very good restaurants like Inaho and Yarmouth Inn. The only thing that was a bummer was the bugs but we did not get citronella candles so maybe that could've helped. The grill was clean and worked well and the outdoor shower was very nice! The location as convenient and scenic, we were very pleased with this property.

Inviting and Comfortable Home for Family Trip
This house is a wonderful option for a quiet and relaxing getaway on the Cape. The marshland view just outside the plentiful windows was lovely and tranquil. Our group of five people plus our dogs felt right at home and we had plenty of room to unwind during our week long stay. Great location near the beautiful Gray’s Beach and easy access to everything Mid-Cape. It was clear from when we made the reservation, all the way until checkout, that the owner (Nancy) is hands on and takes great care in ensuring her guests are satisfied. She wants to ensure that the house meets or exceeds expectations. We had a wonderful stay.

Why they chose this property

The home is located on a very special piece of property that is surrounded by 300 acres of conservation land and overlooks Great Marshes, a tidal marsh. The nature trails that lead to Grays beach are easily accessed 50 feet away. The sunsets and views are spectacular. As one of our guests had said, 'You feel like you're on your own private island.' During the course of a day, the lighting changes and creates a magical setting. Cape Cod Bay is the only location on the East Coast where you can view the sun setting over the ocean. It is peaceful and serene to be surrounded by nature and view hundreds of species of birds that call this paradise their home along with white-tailed bunnies who frolick in the yard at dawn and dusk. It is located north of Route 6A, very desirable and within fifteen minutes of ferries, train, airport, pristine bay beaches, Cape Cod Playhouse, antique shops, art galleries, museums, clam shacks, multiple golf courses, playgrounds, kayaking, boat launch, charter boats, and whale watching boats. A five minute walk to the neighborhood playground and the village store/ice cream shop. A fifteen minute walk to Grays Beach. Only two miles to the newly opened Rail Trail extension and Kings Way Golf Club and Bayberry Hills Golf Course A perfect location in a perfect setting.
