Description of the Cotuit vacation house rental

This pet friendly home is located directly on Shoestring Bay in a quiet part of Cotuit. All the rooms & decks have direct water views. Your rental consists of three (3) bedrooms, a TV room, kids activity area/table, two full baths, pool shower/ room, and a full eat-in kitchen. All rooms are on one floor, at pool level. The home is very light and airy, with just fans to cool it. As you walk out of the living room you can relax on the covered deck, walk down the steps to the beach that is covered in sand & sea grass or swim in the 20x40 in ground pool. You can even anchor your boat or kayak right on our beach. This is an outdoor living home that takes full advantage of the water and incredible views of the Bay. Crocker Neck Nature Preserve is across the street for hiking, dog walking, bird watching, biking, kayak trips and another small sandy swimming beach. Also available (otherwise unoccupied) as an add-on, a HUGE 'Au Pair Suite' attached to the main house (inquire).

Car: recommended

Our house is located directly on Shoestring Bay in Cotuit. We are at the North end of the Bay and the house faces in the direction of Willowbend. There is only one road in/out of the Cotuit Coves area. Cotuit is for the family that does NOT want to be in the center of the action. The Cotuit Coves 'neck' is surrounded by water on all three sides and the nature preserve at the entrance. We are about 25 minutes from the Bourne Bridge and Sagamore Rotary. The beaches of Shoestring Bay are covered in sand and seagrass. The shallow area of the water is sand and then it changes to sand/silt in the deeper parts of the bay. The kids will spend hours digging in the sand at our beach and looking for crabs! Don't forget we are just across the street from Crocker Neck Nature Preserve. There you can hike, bike and kayak. There are miles of trails and many viewing areas plus a great private sandy beach, with shallow water and tidal pools.

Both have daily parking. You can also bike to the Cotuit Main St beaches, they are about a nine minute ride. All town beaches require a parking sticker or daily parking fee.

No crowds, no parking problems, you can eat dinner without reservations and the water is just getting warm!
