Ideal base for exploring the Cape
Joe and Pattie's home is a wonderful place from which to enjoy the beauty of Cape Cod and the islands.
The rooms were clean, the beds comfy, the towels (well worth the extra) were soft, the sofas broad and enveloping, and the kitchen modern, with everything we needed (even, for British visitors, a kettle!) And the kids were very grateful for the smart TV and the fast wifi...The basement with washer and separate drier were a godsend. The biggest success was the brand new (and quiet!) air conditioning units in the bedrooms. The gardens are actually quite large - large enough to throw a new american football around, and the gas BBQ was easy to operate. A lovely touch is the outdoor shower, which we used to get rid of the sand and salt from beach trips, but which was private enough to be your main option if you wanted a bit of Maldives-style al fresco experience each day.
From the very first contact, our hosts were sending helpful advice and information - things to see, stuff to do, places to eat, where to park, how much to expect to pay, what to do when it rains (and despite the scorchingly hot weather, it still did occasionally). The board games provided even managed to get the kids off their phones when we were stuck inside one day. If we had questions (which happened a few times) or an issue (just once or twice) then Joe was exceptionally quick to respond.
Overall, a fantastic break, in a home with a lovely feel. If we come back to the Cape, we'd definitely stay here.
