We loved our stay!

We couldn’t have asked for more. We were three families (6 adults and 4 kids) and perfectly accommodated, enough rooms for everyone and space for each to do their own thing. The mini house is a lovely added touch, kids loved it! The communication with Valerie was great, she provided lots of helpful tips to make our stay memorable (we loved Dowses beach!). The house was clean and fully equipped, really enjoyed having access to the beach chairs and some toys for the kids. Thank you so much to our host, we felt so welcome from the minute we arrived. Saving this house for our next trip to Cape Cod!

Fabulous!

Our stay at The Mills was just everything we could have wanted - and more! Valerie (the property contact/owner) was fabulous. Right from the start we felt welcomed - and not just because of the unexpected (above-and-beyond) welcome gift she left for us, either. The house was just so warm and inviting - and CLEAN! That's super important to me whenever I go anywhere, so it's something that I always note right away. It's very clear to me that she wants her guests to have a special and memorable stay right from the start - and we certainly did. Communication with her was very very easy - we could always count on her to respond quickly. She is also a wealth of information, and has put together a book filled with everything you need to know while you're staying there. And the house comes stocked with everything you might need, too - there isn't a thing I can think of that wasn't there. There were tons of bath and beach towels, a drawer full of Keurig coffee cups, cabinets stocked with spices, oils, other cooking ingredients, paper towels, toilet paper, paper plates, etc - and outside, firewood!! Tons of firewood for the fabulous fire pit! We loved sitting around the fire, and used it many of the nights we were there, so we used a lot of it. When we asked if we could replenish it, they told us that it's a gift from them to their guests! The "mini house" in the backyard is really cute and well done. All and all, I can't say enough about our stay at The Mills!!

Perfectly relaxing home!

Our stay was wonderful. Home was immaculate and everything you could want in a VRBO was provided. Owners were excellent in communicating with us and assured us if anything was needed they would tend to it right away but I can truly say this home was perfectly appointed and our family enjoyed all aspects. The outdoor shower was a big hit! Best I have ever seen. Loved spending family time on the huge front porch as well as meals on the back deck. Mini house was a fun place for our grandchildren too! Most of all very comfortable beds. I would highly recommend this VRBO and would rent again. Thank you Valerie and Greg for sharing your home with us!

A Wonderful Week!

I can't say enough great things about this property and the owners. The house is large, beautiful, and cozy. Located at the end of a culdesac, it is a perfect place for kids to run around and play and also have a quiet, relaxing vacation. The house has great places to relax (comfy couches, Adirondack chairs, and hammocks) and it is a quick walk to a beautiful pond. The hosts are extremely responsive (and accommodating!). A quick drive to most places in Barnstable, including our favorite beach. Final highlight: watching my 60+ yr old parents try to navigate the touch faucet in the kitchen. A week's worth of entertainment! :) . We hope to be back next summer!

Family Fun

Our family of 6 adults and 2 young children enjoyed staying at this comfortable, well-equipped house. The large lawn, front porch, and back deck were great for the children, who had fun playing with some balls and other toys in the garage. The house has a vast collection of children's books and games which were a big hit with the little ones. The back deck also was perfect for grilling and dining al fresco. Everyone enjoyed swimming and canoeing at Mystic Lake, which really is only a 5 minute walk or short drive or bike ride from the house.. We also visited Sandy Neck and Dowses Beaches (each about a 15 minute drive from the house) and had delicious seafood at the Chatham Fish Market. The West Barnstable Conservation Area located about a mile from the house was good for running/hiking and for mountain biking, but we found that the nearby roads were not well suited for biking. The hosts provided great service; there was a problem with the oven (even though it is modern), but Valerie arranged to have it repaired promptly and even dropped by with a blueberry pie as a friendly gesture to make up for the minor inconvenience. We would recommend this house for family vacation.
