About Jeanette Robinson /Proprietor

I grew up in Menlo Park California, my Father was a native Cape Codder and my mother was a native Californian. I suppose my mother's influence kept my Father in California, but he always entertained the notion of moving back to Falmouth. The stretch of land Frederick William House sits on has been in my family for nearly a century, strawberry fields encompassed the stretch, and the 4 houses to the left and the right all belonged to long gone relatives. One by one the cousins, aunts and uncles sold, but when I discovered that 594 Palmer belonged to me after my last living relative on Cape Cod passed away, I felt impelled to keep the last of the homes and share this magical place with you.

Jeanette Robinson /Proprietor purchased this estate in 2001
Why Jeanette Robinson /Proprietor chose Falmouth

Frederick William House has been in my family for nearly a century. We enjoy sharing this magical spot with others. The best memories are made with family.

What makes this estate unique

If you want to 'get there' Frederick William House' is located in an deal spot for the active vacationer who wants to antique downtown, bike, or take in our picturesque landscapes. Easy drives to historic points of interest, walk to breakfast across the street to enjoy the best Irish Eggs Benedict you have ever had. Location, location, location. Come visit the birthplace of 'America the Beautiful' written by Katherine Lee Bates, and visit her child hood home. Take a trolly tour, see Nobska Light House in Woods Hole, still occupied and operated by the Coast Guard Chief. Take in every season, the colors of fall, the impressive frozen ponds in winter, the yellow bursts of color in spring, and the bluest, quiet lapping waves in summer. Cook out, enjoy your family, ferry to the islands, there is so much to do and see here!

Quaint Little Village By The Sea

5 of 5
Submitted: February 21, 2013 Stayed: February 2013
The listing was very accurate, great service, friendly and curtious. The property was very clean, the location was just what we were hoping for.

What I enjoyed...watching the sunset through the bare winter trees in the kitchen, browsing through the specialty shops in the village...reminds me of shopping in Carmel by the Sea California, but Falmouth is better, especially in the off season because it was not so crowded. I enjoyed the upscale salon and spa in town. They were nice places to pamper myself.

I enjoyed sitting by the fire while it gently snowed outside. The snow was beautiful while I was here.

I stayed in the downstairs bedroom, it was very warm and the bed was comfortable. My bathroom was pristine!

Great stay.

Five Star Vacation

Submitted: January 15, 2013 Stayed: June 2012
Location is what we were looking for and what we got with this reservation. Everything is less than a mile away...shops, food, boats, tours, museums, woods and water. Beds were BIG and extremely comfortable, linens top notch, clean white crispy towels, all the things you usually forget to bring were already here...from soap to salt and pepper.The Firework display the town puts on out on the waterfrount is definately a must see if you come during the 4th of July festivities. Awesome time!

I just want to let you know how much my family and I enjoyed our vacation on the Cape. For 12 people we were all very comfortable and enjoyed spending evenings playing different board games. We all had a wonderful time. Your house is certainly a place we would like to return to again,

Thank you,

Wonderful Vacation Home

Submitted: January 15, 2013 Stayed: July 2012
We are very happy Jeannette rented her home to us. She was very considerate and responsive to our needs. It is a lovely old, but completely renovated home. With 5 bedrooms we had plenty of space for our group of 9 adults. Each bedroom had its own bathroom. We were happy to find there was no shortage of hot water, even when we were all getting ready at the same time.
This is a great location if you like to bike, run, or roller blade as you can walk out the back door and be right on the path. Beaches are a short drive away. It is also possible to bike to the beach.
We definitely recommend this home.

Springtime Perfection

Submitted: January 15, 2013 Stayed: April 2012
This house was springtime perfect with all the yellow bulbs bursting our of every corner, even the Spanish Broom was color coordinated with the daffodils. You suggestions of places and garden to visit during the spring really made our vacation. Spohr Gardens was even more breath taking than you had described.

The house was immaculate. I cannot describe it any other way. The weather at this time of year really was not a time to barbeque, so we did not use the grills you had, but we were so excited that the bike path was in our backyard. This is the perfect spot for any avid cyclists. And for the garden goers, springtime really is spectacular.
