Further details for this vacation house rental in Barnstable, Massachusetts

Family Reunions: Family reunions are our largest kinds of bookings. I think it is because we have 7 bedrooms and 6 1/2 baths but also that we have sitting areas in each of the bedrooms and 2 bedrooms on the first floor if someone can not do the stairs. We also have a yard with 2 acres of wood for privacy and another acre that is mowed and has nice gardens spread throughout and 2 patios to lounge about or have meals on. There is also a barn for recreation, games, or just to gather. We are located in the historic district considered the 'historic mile'. It is considered by most the prettiest and quaintest part of the Cape. You can walk to several nice restaurants and the village of Barnstable from this property. From the Barnstable harbor there is a whale watch boat that leaves for family outings and many deep sea fishing boats for hire. Come and enjoy a bit of history in this very historic property.

Weddings: A great place to host family and friends and get married. Many have been married in the yard or at the beach just 7/10th of a mile away. There have been bridal luncheons, rehearsal dinners etc. A quaint place to gather and host a special event.

Golf: For the golfer there are many courses to try out your talents. Some with water views and many that are a challenge to even the best golfer. Ask us for names to the local courses that we have tried or a list of the best Restaurants to host your group. We also have available several caters and or lobster bake grops to make your gathering even more memorable.

Other Activities: whale watching and deep sea fishing

Beautiful Spot For My Wedding

CS&JS Buffalo, NY
Review Submitted: March 2, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2008
My husband and I rented the Crocker Tavern House as the location for our wedding and it was absolutely fabulous. The house was large enough for both of our families to stay under one roof and spend an unforgettable week together. We had a great week at the Cape with many trips to the beach and lots of time just relaxing and enjoying each other's company at the Crocker Tavern. At the end of the week we had our wedding ceremony in the backyard amid the beautiful gardens. We held our reception in the gorgeous restored barn which was large enough for our families as well as other invited guests. We can't say enough about how great the Crocker Tavern was. In fact, our families have now decided to make it a yearly summer event - a family reunion of sorts since we're all spread across the country :-)

Great summer spot!

JNCM MA
Review Submitted: January 30, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2008
This was the ideal setting for my summer family reunion! This historic home is full of charm.....the perfect place to entertain at night! Plenty of space for our party to socialize together in the evenings- then when it was time to retire, we all had our privacy as well. The barn out back provided extra space and the home has a beautiful backyard for the days when we were not at the beach. Not your typical cape rental- this is a unique destination. We hope to gather there again next summer!

Beautiful house but amenities are not as described

RenterJB New York
Review Submitted: September 4, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
Crocker Tavern is a lovely old property in beautiful Barnstable on Cape Cod. While the house is historic and lovely, the amenities aren't as described on this website, and as a result our family reunion ran in to some problems.

First, the house is not "air conditioned" as described. There are some air conditioners iin some rooms -- but, for example, 3 of the 7 bedrooms are not air conditioned. Many of the windows don't open -- this is an antique house. While fans are supplied,many of the bedrooms and dining room were *sweltering* on hot days.

Second there is no internet access. This website claims that there is, and we planned our family reunion around having that access (we had some family members who absolutely needed to telecommute at odd hours, even while on vacation). A couple of weeks before we arrived we got a note say while the house is not wired, occupants can get signal from the library across the street if they sit in the correct place in the dining room (!). When we arrived we found that this was not the case. While lack of internet access on vacation isn't a tragedy , it turned out to be a real source of hardship and difficulty for the 2 people who had been given the impression that they would be able to continue to work remotely.

Bottom line: Beautiful historic old house, but description on this website is misleading at best.
Owner's Response: Air conditioners are located in 5 rooms with 7 large floor fans also available for use. With the ocean breezes from the bay and harbor just 400 yards away these are rarely needed.
For the 2009 season, internet wireless access has been expanded.
