Cape Cod Gem

My wife and I spent two glorious weeks in this wonderful Falmouth beach house and we both agreed they were two of the best weeks we have ever enjoyed. Although the fact that we had bright sunshine for every single day (it only rained at night), the house itself was a primary factor that made our visit very special.
The 1980's design is beautiful and innovative, providing the perfect setting for capturing the very best that is the essence of Cape Cod. The views are spectacular: Vineyard Sound and Martha's Vineyard from the front, and a beautiful salt pond in the back, which teems with waterfowl. A few steps across the road is beautiful Menauhant Beach, quiet, peaceful, and inviting any time of the day or evening.
We made easy day trips to P-town, Wellfleet, Orleans, and Chatham, plus two voyages to Martha's Vineyard, taking in the arts and culture, quaint and modern shops, and great places to dine. Falmouth itself was one of our favorites and we spent parts of several days exploring and enjoying. Anejo, a wonderful Mexican restaurant, merited three visits and would have been more, but we had to move on.
The house itself is so very well provisioned that one immediately feels at home--or maybe how you wish home was. The design and finishes of the interior are wonderful and their careful maintenance belies the fact that the house was finished in 1980.
We loved every minute of our two weeks' stay and definitely plan to return soon.
