Great stay here. Small but has everything you need especially AC! The fenced in yard was super helpful for our dog and the location next to Nickerson was amazing. Super easy to walk on the trails and over to the ponds. Thanks for a great stay!

Cozy Cape Cod home in April

We have stayed at this lovely home many times during the month of August which is the height of the season. Great location for access to Nickerson State Park and bay beaches. The house is clean and well equipped. It's so nice that we can bring our dogs as the home has a fenced in backyard. This was our first time staying at this home off season. We found it to be as cozy and welcoming as our other visits here. The delightful hosts who make you feel right at home! We look forward to our next stay here!

Great location!

We loved this house! It was clean, a nice size and a wonderful fit for all our travelers (people and dogs). We were thrilled with the fenced in yard, so our dogs could relax outside. The proximity to Nickerson State Park was also amazing. We enjoyed so many of the trails and access to the pond was an easy walk. We will stay here again!

Peaceful Cape Retreat

This was our 4th stay at this comfortable and cozy Cape Cod home. It is literally 50 feet from Nickerson State Park which we love! It is also close to Brewster beaches and in general centrally located to restaurants and various activities. The yard is fenced so our dogs are safe outside. The backyard backs up to conservation land and provides for a peaceful deck experience. The home has all the amenities for a comfortable stay. Hopefully, we will be back next year!

Great home to experience Cape Cod!

This is our third stay at this cute home and it doesn't disappoint! We were fortunate to stay three weeks here and enjoyed every minute! The house is well equipped for eating in with a full kitchen, clean, air conditioning, washer/dryer(a must on the Cape),comfortable family/den area downstairs with large screened TV, deck and fenced in yard for our dogs. The home is 50 feet from Nickerson State park, rail trails, and less than 5 minutes away from beautiful Brewster Bay beaches! Also, the owners are very responsive to renters. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to staying here again!

Great location for accessing bike trails!

My family of 4 stayed here for two nights to be able to ride the Cape Cod Rail Trail. This house was in the perfect location! Just feet away was access to the paved bike/walking trails in Nickerson Park and the paved Cape Cod Rail Trail was about a 1.5 mile bike ride away at the entrance to Nickerson Park. The house was clean and had everything we needed. Checkin was easy and communication with the owner was great. We brought our dog and walked him on the trails in the park and even took him when we went for a drive to Provincetown. The whole Cape is very dog friendly! We would like to stay again for another weekend in the future!

Close to so many things!

The property was perfect for what we enjoy doing-biking, kayaking, beaching. It is so close to the state park, about 3 houses from the entrance and a short walk or bike ride to the pond. Stayed cool inside, coffee pot was excellent as was the outdoor shower!

With fully fenced in yard for dogs and direct access into Nickerson Park for pond swimming and bike riding (including great mountain biking) and then Nauset beac within a few minutes drive it’s the perfect spot for our family.

Great Winter Getaway.

The property was well kept, clean and in an excellent location! The proximity to Nickerson Stare Park can’t be beat! As a family we enjoyed winter hikes in the State park and trips to nearby beaches. Highly recommend and hope to book again for a summer stay!

Fantastic Winter Getaway

Our family just spent a long weekend at this house and it was perfect! It is clean and comfortable and has everything you could need. The fenced in yard was great for the dog! We walked to Nickerson State Park, we drove to several beaches and even did an easy day trip to Provincetown. It is so central and there is so much to do. We also spent lots of fun family time playing games and hanging out in the living room because it was so cozy and inviting. Liz was very easy to work with and answered all of my questions. There were no issues at all - the driveway and walk were cleared of snow when we arrived and there was even a welcome bag! I'd absolutely recommend this property for anyone looking for a cozy winter getaway!

Good spot for a biking vacation

This house is located a stone's throw from the bike paths at Nickerson State Park (which means you don't have to load your bikes on a car and drive there.) That is the biggest plus. However you are not close to a pond or swimming area. There were no chairs for the deck so we had to carry metal folding chairs up from the basement. I would hope the homeowner would spring for some resin chairs from Target and also do some lawn cleanup. House has decent appliances, wi-fi and TVs.

September on the Cape!

We really enjoyed our stay here. What a perfect spot next to the Park and only a 5 minute or so walk to one of the ponds. Just a lovely morning to wake up to. So perfect to bring our daughter and her family and our dogs! We were in the area for a family wedding and this was a perfect spot to relax in between events. Thank you for the games in the closet - I had the privilege of teaching my granddaughter how to play solitaire while we waited for others to wake up, just like my grandmother did with me. Lovely deck to enjoy our morning coffee and unwind. The neighborhood is so quiet and peaceful and the owner was so responsive to questions. Very comfortable and clean which is a must for me as I travel for work. Perfect backyard for the dogs!!! Thank you again!

About the host

Hosted by Liz

We love to travel, and we love Cape Cod. So many beautiful beaches! We camped in Nickerson State Park for years before buying this home right next to the park.

Why they chose this property

We are dog owners and love travelling with our pets. We wanted to offer others the same opportunity, and enjoy all the hiking, biking, swimming and relaxing both the home and park nearby have to to offer. Plus we are a 15 minute bike ride along paved trails to the lovely Crosby Beach on Cape Cod Bay. The trails in Nickerson State Park also connect to the Cape Cod Rail Trail, so we can bike to the ocean beaches too!

What makes this property unique

- fenced in back yard, great for kids and pets
- 10 minute walk to gorgeous Cliff Pond
- 15 minute bike ride (or 2 mile walk) to the sunsets at Crosby Beach through the paved trails at Nickerson State Park
- convenient to amenities, but still a world away
- pirate inspired dining table & beach mural
- nice deck off the kitchen for relaxing with morning tea or coffee
