Excellent place

Really is a terrific place, and looks as advertised. Lawn is huge and great for kids. No real place to swim @ their portion of beach, but good for launching kayaks, etc. -- and a nice beach just down the road. Good sleeping options in the house, and it was perfect for our large group (14) of adults and kids.
Owner was very nice and helpful on arrival and departure.
Owner's Response: I am really pleased that our guest from Philadelphia gave us a review rating of 5/5 and titled their review of our property as an "Excellent Place." I just wanted to clarify the swimming arrangements at our private beach. Swimming can be accomplished at our private beach and many people have done so. But since there is a 12 foot rise and fall of the tides in New England, swimming time has to be scheduled to coincide with the height of the tide. At high tide the water comes right up to our stairs so the beach disappears for approximately one hour. Conversely, at low tide, the water in the harbor pretty much drains out for two hours. Many people like this because they can go clamming at low tide, kayaking at high tide, and swimming or fishing at mid tide. Some guests have gone fishing right off our beach or in one of our kayaks and have caught some good-sized blue fish or stripers. I have myself on many occasions. Next year as an option for my guest I will have available a small Carolina skiff with a small outboard motor moored right in front of our property. For a small fee they can rent our boat for the day and tour Plymouth harbor or go outside the harbor and explore some of our secluded pristine sandy beaches that you can only get to by boat or 4x4.
