About this property
Beautiful Victorian Carriage House w/Private Beach. Special Sun-Fri!
Just a pebble's throw (about 100 feet) to the private beach, the Carriage House of Onset Village is situated on beautiful Onset Bay. The Carriage House is just a short walk over the stone bridge to the village with shops, restaurants, the Onset Pier and a summer full of events. From the cocktail deck, there is a lovely view of Onset Bay!
The second floor unit has a contemporary, open layout with the feel of a modern cottage. The kitchen and living room are open with a sectional in the living area. There are 2 bedrooms, one with a queen size bed and another with a double bed and trundle bed underneath. The kitchen is outfitted with all the necessities, including dishwasher. There is a full bath with tub and towels are provided. A stackable washer/dryer is located in unit.
Linens are provided along with beach towels, beach chairs, wireless internet and cable TV with DVD player. There is an outside shower to keep the beach out where you'll want it and a gas grill for those slow summer evenings.
While we welcome children, with respect to our downstairs guests, the upstairs is not a good fit if you have younger children who are active. With that in mind, we ask there is no running in the unit.

Great place, forget about all you have left undone. Put up your feet, walk on the beach, go for a swim, relax and enjoy the simple things in life, no better place than here.
We enjoyed our stay in Onset Ma. The rental location was really good. The rental was good too. The outside balcony had a beautiful view of the harbor which we enjoyed for morning coffee and evening cocktails. We had great communication with the owner.. The rental was clean and well appointed. I would definitely recommend it.

Thank you, Peter! I hope to welcome you again soon!
Had a delightful week, the rental was clean and well positioned steps from the beach in a quiet neighborhood (other than the continual barking dog for 5 days!!) It is very easy to visit other areas of the Cape and with the good weather couldn't have asked for a better rental. Sit back on the beach with a good book. I will definitely return and hopefully next year!
My husband and I had a fantastic stay at the carriage house at the end of July. The location to the private beach was excellent, it was right there. Perfect way to spend the day, especially during the pandemic. The house was lovely, very clean and everything you needed. The balcony was wonderful. It was the perfect place to relax and enjoy the sunset or have coffee in the morning. Communication with the owner, Jude, was fast and easy. Definitely recommended staying here. We can't wait to go back.
The Carriage House in Onset has pretty much been a staple in our lives for the past 14-15 summers with 2 exceptions (Covid when we did not travel to East Coast & ‘21 when we were unable to make our dates work). It feels like home for us!
My girl friends and I were on our 22nd girl trip and our first time to MA. The house is in the quaint village of Onset and is just a few steps from the beach. It was clean and nicely decorated and well supplied with necessities. Off road parking was a great bonus. It was also an easy drive to Buzzards Bay, Hyannis and Barnstable to take whale watching tours or the ferry’s to Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket. Owners were very pleasant and understanding when we accidentally locked ourselves out of the carriage house. Would highly recommend the carriage house, the owners and the location.

It was such a pleasure to host you! Thank you for the lovely comments and will hope to welcome you and your friends back another time.
Adorable property, very clean and accessible to walking distance restaurants/downtown/beaches. My kids (5&3) thoroughly enjoyed the deck and the wonderful private beach. The kids still talk about exploring the shells and tide pools.
I would highly recommend Jude’s property… we stayed in the top unit, but she also has the bottom unit. She was staying downstairs with her family the weekend we visited and did complain about the kids walking around in the morning, so if you have kids I would recommend staying downstairs if you can (we booked that first but she asked us to shift upstairs so her family could visit)… very difficult to have young children sit still :)

Onset Vacation
The listing stated a trundle bed, however it was just a twin mattress on the floor under the bed.
The silverware drawer had mouse droppings.
In the coffee table drawer were used dirty tissues.
In the dresser drawer there were a pair of mens underwear.

Hi Barbara, thank you for your review. This is first I've heard of any mouse droppings! I will have an exterminator come over immediately.
Please note that I have also just changed cleaners so do apologize. As for the mattress under the bed, we found the trundle bed was just not comfortable so put a twin size mattress under the queen bed that is much more comfortable.
Very nice property and very responsive owner.
Pictures need updating and the fact that there is now central heat and air versus window units liasted in amenities makes it more desirable.
My husband and I and our adult daughter stayed here over the long holiday weekend and had a delightful time. The place was very clean and well-appointed, the beds extremely comfortable and the kitchen seemed fully stocked, although we didn’t do any cooking beyond making some toast in the mornings. Jude was quick to reply to any messages— and was very gracious about my parking in the wrong place one evening😊. Even though the weather was a bit cool for it in early October, I loved starting each morning on the deck with a cup of coffee, gazing out at the bay/ocean. Would definitely return on our next trip to the Cape.
Jude’s place was perfect for our September visit to Cape Cod. Communication was fast and easy. The place was exactly as described. The beds were comfortable and it was a quiet neighborhood so we were able to leave windows open at night. We used the place as home base and drove to a different city every day. We were able to walk for pizza and breakfast. We loved having coffee on the deck looking at the water.
Very enjoyable comfortable vacation. Jude was easy to be in touch with.
Loved the short walk to town for breakfast at Pier View Resturant each morning. Sitting on my balcony enjoying the ocean breeze. Nice for my daughter & granddaughter to be able to visit.
Great location, property exactly as described, owner was responsive and great to deal with. The private beach was fantastic for our family. Also went to the town beach which was great as well. Would definitely stay here again!
My group and I had a great time at this property. It was clean, comfortable and the proximity to the beach can't be beat. Highly recommend. Jude kept in contact and was super helpful/nice.
Great location within easy walking distance of downtown Onset. Clean, cozy upstairs apartment that was perfect for three -- my wife and I plus our teenage son.
This unit was absolutely perfect for our stay. The owner was very friendly and easy to communicate with all the way up to our arrival. The unit was clean and spotless and just a few steps from the beach as promised. Everything you could possibly need was supplied.. We had a great time there and hope to go back again!
