Great summer getaway!

What a wonderful, relaxing mini vacation! We stayed at Port Cottage for 3 nights in mid-August, and couldn't have been happier with our VERY last-minute reservation! The cottage is adorable, roomy, and very thoughtfully stocked with just about everything you can think of needing. The owner was so lovely and welcoming! We enjoyed roaming around the small private beach just steps away, and the location was nicely off the beaten path, but still very accessible to all the Cape has to offer. There were plenty of suggestions for things to do, and our party enjoyed nearby Mashpee Commons (the cupcake bakery, Cupcake Charlie's, offers $1.50 "frosting shots" -- fun!), whale watching in Hyannis, a day trip to Martha's Vineyard, delicious breakfast at Persey's, an afternoon at South Cape Beach, lazy evenings with the DVD player, and so much more. The cottage and location were even better than described, and I would recommend this property VERY highly! The wifi connection was a lifesaver when a work emergency came up, and while the August weather was predictably warm and humid, the open windows and many thoughtfully-placed fans kept us quite comfortable. I think our only regret was not taking advantage of the outdoor shower while we were there! All in all, this was a delightful getaway, and I can't say enough good things about the owner, who was just a dream. I hope to visit again soon!
