Photos and Description of the South Dartmouth vacation cottage rental

Nestled at the end of a private road, this charming New England cottage opens to green lawns and stone walled gardens that slope to meet the Slocum River. With over 100 feet of tidal river frontage, there's plenty of room to swim and put in your canoe, kayak or Sunfish. A public boat landing is only down the road if you have a larger boat to launch. There is a private mooring in front of the cottage. Relax on the westerly facing deck that extends across the back of the cottage Soak in the spectacular sunsets and watch the many varieties of birds that abound along the river. Enjoy quiet evenings on the enclosed front porch in the hammock or porch swing as you watch moonbeams dance around the gardens and young oaks. With lots of privacy and choice of activities--great walks, bike rides along quiet country roads, boat trips, and bird watching--this cozy, well-loved cottage will make your summer living easy and memorable.

Fantastic Experience

IRM Maryland
Review Submitted: June 26, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2008
We had a superb rental experience! Not only was the cottage wonderful...just as described in the listing... comfortable, spacious, nicely appointed and thoughtfully equipped...but the grounds were lush, well-kept and just beautiful. The location was lovely...right on the water...although if you're not into nature, beaches, etc, and you'd rather not be in the lovely cottage much of the day, you may need to count on a bit of a drive out to the cape or into Boston to keep yourselves entertained (worth it but will take a whole day). There is a terrific beach, though. We visited Horsehead state beach two days before our departure and wished we'd had time to go back for several more visits.

The propietors were just great. Easily accessible by cell phone if you needed them, helpful in their instructions on how things worked or where things could be found, etc. Everything in the cottage was discretely labeled so you didn't have to do too much poking around to find things.

Only difficulty was the kitchen. Clean and orderly, but really only a "one-butt" affair and with little room for many pots, gadgets, etc and slim room for putting away groceries. So, if you're planning on gourmet cooking while there, plan on assigning the role to one of you and the others getting out of the way!! As listed, all condiments and other standard supplies were well-stocked.

We had a wonderful time at this charming cottage and you will most certainly, too!

We highly recommend this property and its owners!
