Family Reunion House in North Dennis

15 members of our family recently stayed at this wonderful historic home. Everyone from age 82 to our 3 year old had a wonderful week. The house itself is well preserved, yet remarkably modern. After just a few minutes the house magically wraps itself around you and you are under it's spell!!! Every room has marvelous wall paper, and the furnishings are cozy, sensible, and comfortable.. The main bath on the second floor is quite large and appears to have been fully renovated very recently. With 3 baths, there was never a problem waiting!!! The kitchen was fully operational for any type of meal, and we cooked often. Even made birthday cake! Plenty of pot's and pan's and what not. Laundry room off the kitchen is perfect. We spent many hours on the back deck relaxing earlier in the day and later in the evening. Very quiet and peaceful! The air-conditioning worked perfectly during a beautiful but very warm week. The location of this home can't be beat. It is on the road that takes you to Mayflower Beach, a truly spectacular spot. My husband and I took a power walk from the house to the beach every morning, (1.3 miles) but this is not something you would do with all your beach needs. You would want to drive down to the parking lot, which fills up by 10-11am and either pay $20 to park, or drop off all your things and family, go back to the house, and ride a bike or walk back! There are other beaches near by as well. Being on Mid Cape allows you to explore in all directions without having to drive for hours. Bike trail is nearby and is a fun day out. Plenty of restaurants, and food nearby, with the convenience of the Dennis Market practically across the street!!!! Stop and Shop is a ten minute drive. Chris is the nicest guy to do business with, very easy going. The only things I could find fault with was the grounds. They really aren't manicured, so don't expect the outside to look like some kind of a resort or million dollar property! But once you step into the home, it doesn't matter!!! Also, the lack of internet connection is hard for those who do not have a smart phone.
I Highly recommend this home away from home. You could easily pay double or triple the weekly rent in order to accomadate 15-20 people, (Just check on this website, the prices are crazy for 1 week) but you would be hard pressed to match this charming getaway!!!

We had a wonderful trip at the Nathan Stone House in Dennis. We were a group of 18 and slept absolutely comfortably in this home. 2 kitchens make coordinating cooking/eating and food storage a breeze! The back yard was a fantastic space - nice and shady (with some great spots of sun) - we spent all day and night out there! The men in our group played golf at some of the nearby courses and the women spent their days at the beach, which was only about a 5 minute drive from the house - doesn't get much better than that! You're a stones throw away from a great market which supplied us with phenomenal food/snacks throughout our trip (check out their deli counter, they have some great marinated meat!)

We were also perfectly situated to take some day trips and had a great time in Chatham and Provincetown.

We really had the most wonderful trip - everyone in our party was very sad to depart and we cannot wait for our next visit to the Nathan Stone House! Chris Hart made renting this house such a pleasurable experience. He is extremely knowledgeable about the area and answered any and all questions I had about what to bring, what was around town, suggestions on things to do, etc. I would highly reccomend this house to anyone looking to bring a large party to the cape.

Can't wait for our next trip to the cape!

You may be able to go out and spend a great deal more money and find a nicer place on Cape Cod. But you won't find the ambience, character, location and value that we found here. We comfortably slept 23 in this home and had great access to all of the attractions and more importantly, beaches that we could have wanted. This was a fantastic vacation home and the yard allowed for some great football, wiffleball and frisbee.

The fact that this home was built in the late 1700's only added to the experience. My family is still talking about this vacation and it's been over 4 months since we were there.
