Amazing Vacation!

My family stayed in this wonderful home and highly recommend it for anyone who wants to truly experience what Cape Cod is all about. The views from this waterfront home are incredible and are experienced throughout the entire house. The children loved playing in the water, the kayaks, fishing, and the swans / ducks who visited us each day. My wife and I loved sitting out on the lounge chairs soaking in the views - morning, noon and night. Having a nice backyard, on the waterfront was an added bonus as the children were able to play while we relaxed.
The private island location was superb as you are close to all the entertainment and amenities but without the noise. I have been to Cape Cod countless times, and never realized such a sanctuary existed. Literally 5 minutes from all of the great restaurants, shops, grocery store, nightlife and family fun - but once you turn onto the private road, you are transported into your own paradise.
The house was much larger than expected, and can comfortably sleep the amount of people advertised (and then some!) The kitchen is large and fully stocked with everything we needed and having the gas grill on the back patio was great. The living room with the huge sliding door to the backyard was very nice and let the ocean breezes and sounds fill the room - with the flat screen T.V. over the fireplace and that amazing view from the couch, I couldn't think of a better place to watch the baseball game. The unique wood floors, gleaming throughout the house added to the incredible character of the place. The furniture was very nice throughout, and very comfortable! There was an air conditioner in each bedroom, but we didn't need to turn them on thanks to the wonderful ocean breeze that fills the house.
I have rented several vacation homes in Rhode Island, Maine, and Cape Cod none have been this nice, this updated, and this private. I will definitely will be coming back!

Owner's Response: We enjoyed having Chris and his family this year. The little ones even got their first kayak ride and were thrilled with the
whole experience. I have got to mention we did received a very large thank you cupcake from Ethan, which I am pleased to report has been totally consumed.
