Cape stay,,
The house was clean and nice for an older structure. It appears that the surrounding land is used for boat storage or something. Didn’t bother us but was unexpected. The house itself was clean and the property owner didn’t bother us which is super nice. We would stay again!

Beautiful cottage
Everything about the cottage was fantastic. It's a beautifully renovated antique house that really sets the beach mood. I almost felt like I was on a movie set.... We enjoyed kayaking, and the host couldn't have been more accommodating.

Our lovely stay in Marion at 288
Myself and my three daughters stayed a week in this lovely beach cottage by the bay. We loved the unique beach decor with a mix of old style nautical and modern touches. We enjoyed sitting by the water, and watching the crabs and herons when low tide would come. Having a fire by the bay while the girls played ping-pong was just perfect. The host Kellie Was Great and very easy to communicate with for any needs that we needed or questions that we had. Having a beach pass to the local Silvershell Beach was so awesome, the beach itself was great and very close by. We enjoyed getting ice cream at Annie’s ice cream shop and sitting by the water and watching the boats. We would love to visit again and definitely recommend this rental to anyone! Thank you, Kellie We loved every second of it and every inch of your wonderful, inviting bayside rental home!

Sweet old house made new!
We’re old-house lovers, so we were looking forward to our stay — and we were not disappointed! The updates to the house including the kitchen preserve older features like exposed beams and ceiling boards, and lovely old furniture pieces mixed with new comfy ones. The location is perfect for exploring the South Coast of Massachusetts, a hidden gem and much less commercialized than the Cape has become. Kellie was very responsive to our every need. The only thing that disappointed was that I thought we’d have a view of the cove from the house, which is not the case. It’s an easy walk though, and we might return when the weather is better for kayaking!

Very cute New England Cottage. Part of an older home with the entry around the back and beautifully appointed with nautical design elements. Downstairs is roomy light and airy. Stairwell to the upstairs bedrooms is a little tricky to navigate. Lots of perks. Great little kitchen, laundry, Bikes, beach chairs and towels, water excess, kayaks, outside fire pit, grassy area, easy, parking, This is a really fun little property.

Amazing home + Amazing property!
My family and I just returned from a 3 night stay at the home and we could not have enjoyed it more! The moment we entered the house we felt like we were in a home! The small details (kids toys on the bath, chalkboard note, other details I won’t spoil here) had my two children (6yo & 2yo) feeling comfortable immediately. Not to mention the amenities allowed us to pack without fear of being without something essential. In regards to the outside, we never lacked for activity. Walking around the property, swimming in the water (again, young kids), playing on the dock and watching the small crabs and fish made for a tremendous trip. This is a terrific family home and I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone. My wife and I were commenting on details of the house and it’s character until the moment we left. Thank you, Kellie, for making this such a great stay for us!

Our stay was amazing! Kellie was so welcoming and helpful throughout our time there. The home is so gorgeous and cozy and is a great place to unwind at after a day of touring the area. The little eating area is the perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee and start the day. Highly revommend this place if you're loking for the Cape Cod feel!

The house was by far the cleanest property we have stayed in to date. The house was filled with beautiful accents and was well stocked. The grounds were big and our favorite part was a couch set up overlooking the water. It was peaceful and beautiful and we miss the tranquilty afforded us in this rental.

A lovely place to re-charge your batteries
We had a great stay in this period property, which is beautifully appointed and decorated, and leads directly onto the water. Kellie was an extremely responsive host who was very helpful when we left some items behind. We enjoyed exploring the local area - New Bedford was very interesting and the water park in Wareham was a lot of fun, we loved it! When we first arrived at the property I was a little surprised to find it was on a main road but in fact you can’t hear any noise in the house and it was never an issue for us. We really enjoyed our stay here.
