Gorgeous rental home in an ideal location!

The pictures do not do it justice. We were renting some equipment from a local rental agency and the woman called me and said "Have you seen the house yet? Its SPECTACULAR. You are going to have an amazing vacation!" She was right. We were stunned when we arrived and saw what a beautiful home and property it was. The attention to detail is wonderful, and the owner provides everything you need for a lovely vacation on The Cape. The grounds are expansive with absolutely beautiful gardens. As you walk out to the pool, there is an abundant stack of towels to be used on the comfortable lounges, or to be worn as you walk around the side of the house to use the fabulous outdoor shower or the jacuzzi. He also invited us to pick our own herbs out of the garden, which we did when we cooked up our fresh fish from the incredible Breakwater Fish Market, which is just down the road. The master bathroom was a delight with its relaxing whirlpool tub, amazingly therapeutic steam shower and fluffy, soft towels. The bed linens are magnificent and made us feel right at home.
I've rented many homes for our vacations, and we really appreciated all of the attention the owner has paid to making this home as convenient as possible for the renter. There is no guessing about how anything works, he has left easy instructions for everything (from the tv to the pool cover to the sound system). It was a truly relaxing experience. He is also very attentive if you were to have any questions, making himself available via both cell phone and email.
The location is great as you can walk to many shops and especially for ice cream at Kate's, a wonderful Cape Cod tradition. Brewster is also a perfect location as it is an easy drive all the way up to Provincetown or Wellfleet one morning, or all the way down to Falmouth or Hyannis another. Getting to Chatham was also easy, as you can avoid all of the traffic on Route 28. We enjoyed the convenience of its location so that we could visit the different beaches and harbors, but we also spent time enjoying the quiet, peaceful evenings outside in the garden. We had friends over for dinner and they were amazed at what a lovely home we had rented. We ended up having dinner at the house several nights over the course of our vacation because our friends loved it so very much.
I cannot recommend this house or its owner highly enough. My only regret was that I didn't rent it for a longer period of time!
