Cape Classic, Near Bay Beaches & Walking Trails
West Barnstable - Old King's H Vacation Rental - ID 35011

Our first trip to Cape Cod and it couldn't have been better. The house was clean, well cared for, and exactly as described. Location was perfect - it was away from all the hustle and bustle but yet close enough to everything. We loved traveling the more scenic Route 6A when we could but it was nice that it was close to the highway when we wanted it. Beds were comfortable, kitchen was well equipped, and overall the house was very welcoming. Wendy and Van thought of everything.
Wendy was great with communication and provided all pertinent information for the house as well as for the area to enjoy Cape Cod. If we come back to the Cape, we will stay here again. Thank you for a wonderful first visit!

Amazing stay at cottage in Barnstable. The cottage is impeccably maintained, clean and welcoming. Wendy and Van were very responsive and welcoming. Highly recommend. Hope to visit again.

We very much enjoyed our stay in this lovely, well-equipped and quiet house on a residential street. Beaches and all amenities were close by - the town of Hyannis is a 10 minute drive away and Sandy Neck beach is even closer. Special mentions go to the truly enormous bed in the main bedroom, and how quickly Wendy responded to our queries. It was our first time in Cape Cod, and this house played a big part in making it a wonderful holiday.

This was literally a gem! Wendy and Van were amazing. They thought of everything. The house was so clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay there and hope to come back next summer. Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

The cottage in Barnstable, Cape Cod was terrific. The directions were accurate and the beach pass was a definite plus. The cottage was nicely decorated and comfortable. Wendy thought of everything, from the extra lunch bags,
cooler and stacked medicine cabinet to snacks and plenty of towels and supplies.
It's a nice, quiet neighborhood on a dead end street with the patio on the back of the property for privacy.
We highly recommend this hidden jem and would come back again.

This cozy cottage had everything we could want and more. A warm welcome from the hosts, comfortable beds, and a cozy setting inside and out. We were close to everything we wanted to see and do, and felt the unique Cape Cod experience even when we were relaxing inside between activities. I can't recommend this house enough, and can't wait to return!

The home was perfect for us. Immaculately clean, comfortable beds, and a quiet and convenient location. The owners are very thoughtful and responsive. We hope to return next year.

We greatly enjoyed our stay and had a wonderful time. Wendy and Van are gracious hosts and their cottage is stunning with cape cod charm and comfort. The home is in a beautiful location to all attractions, and we experienced perfect weather. Wendy's resturante pics were perfect. Thank-you for a wonderful experience!

Wendy and Van have thought of everything and have made this cottage such a beautiful retreat.
We really enjoyed our time as always here.

We came to the Cape for the weekend to visit family and had a lovely stay in Van and Wendy's beautiful home! When we arrived there were snacks out as well as a personal note and ample information giving us everything we needed for navigating our way around the area. The bed was very comfortable and we had everything we could possibly need at our fingertips for a lovely and comfortable weekend. This location is just around the corner from Sandy Neck, and is right off one of the most scenic highways in America. Van and Wendy are thoughtful and attentive hosts offering a classic and cozy Cape visit experience - we will definitely be back soon!!!

This immaculate home was a fantastic stepping off place for anywhere on the cape! Rooms are huge, all necessary items are provided and it's dog-friendly. We enjoyed daily walks at Sandy Neck beach and Barnstable Village is charming. The local general store has anything you might need including great take out pizza. We'd love to return again!

We spent our honeymoon on Cape Cod! What a wonderful trip….the cottage exceeded our expectations. Wendy thought of everything!!!! The cottage was so well-stocked and homey!! The washer and dryer were a huge plus because we didn't have to check baggage at the airport. It was a fantastic location.

We feel so lucky to have experienced Sandy Nook Cottage for a glorious week on Cape Cod. From the moment we arrived we were thrilled with the beautiful and inviting space Wendy and her husband have created in their lovely rental property. The cottage was spotless with everything needed from towels to a well appointed kitchen. The cottage is nestled among trees and peaceful. We were able to bring our beloved dog which made our trip fantastic. There is state of the art air conditioning that keeps all the rooms at a comfortable temperature. The beaches are a very short distance away and there is a beach pass provided! Even though we've visited the Cape many times the bay and ocean beaches were incredible! We couldn't stop saying "Wow". We've been sharing our photos and recommending this gorgeous gem to family and friends.

The Sandy Nook Cottage is a hidden gem tucked a few miles away from the main tourist attractions and traffic. We were most impressed by how inviting it was - beautifully decorated with comfortable beds, clean, and fully stocked with anything we needed. The owners even left all the little things you often forget like qtips, a med kit, and cleaning supplies. They supplied linens, towels, and toiletries -- and all kitchen items were there and available, including a Keurig. They shared their beach chairs and a beach pass to the local beaches, which we definitely took advantage of. In their welcome booklet it had everything we needed to know about the cottage, along with contact info, and they included some of their favorite places.

Our favorite was Sandy Neck Beach -- walking the trails in the sand dunes to and from the quiet beach. Our family absolutely loved it. Just like the cottage, it was a hidden gem. For families with dogs, this was perfect. The owners allowed us to bring our dog, and dogs are welcome to walk the trails and to visit a section of the beach, which is rare during the summer months.

Outside the cottage was a picnic table and some comfortable Adirondack chairs to relax in before starting or ending the day.

I must add the home owners were easy to communicate with and quick to respond. I would recommend this place to anyone - and will definitely be back.

Our time at the cottage was amazing! Such a beautiful spot and Wendy & Van thought of everything.
We loved the large bedroom... And sitting outside for morning coffee.
It was honestly the best vacation we have had because we found this place and it suited us to a tea! And the turkeys came back almost daily.
Thank you both!

This was the first time we traveled to Cape Cod. We wanted a quiet place to sleep at night. This cottage was perfect located on a dead end road! Wendy & Van are exceptional hosts who have thought of everything! They were very helpful in giving advice on places to eat. We like to eat where the "locals" eat when we go to a new destination. Very quick to respond to our questions via text and email. This cottage is exceptionally clean and we felt very comfortable calling it "home" for the duration of time we were there. This cottage is quiet, quaint, clean and comfortable with all the amenities you can think of! Nicely decorated with a New England personal touch. Other than your clothes, there is nothing else you need to pack!

Wendy was so accommodating! Our family was looking for a place for us and our dog at the last minute. Wendy was very timely in her responses and was able to rent her place to us for Memorial Day Weekend. The house was very clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed for our stay - we just needed to bring our clothes. We enjoyed the stay and would definitely rent from Wendy again!

This cottage was absolutely perfect, and exactly what I was looking for. As a travel nurse, it can be hard to find comfortable housing for a short three-month stint. However, Wendy and Van were more than accommodating in making their cottage feel like home to me.

Every possible kitchen utensil or cooking staple was thought of and stocked in the cabinets. The space is airy and bright, the wood-stove cozy, and it is located on the quietest of dead-end streets. Being in such close proximity to Sandy Neck Beach made daily walks on the beach my most prized ritual while on Cape Cod.

I would recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a quiet, comfortable, and cozy retreat.

Wendy saved our vacation! We had our expected rental cancel literally hours before our arrival due to an unavoidable issue. We travel with our fur baby so our options are limited. In a panic in the middle of the night I came across a cute cottage that met our needs. I emailed Wendy who responded to me promptly on the morning. After hearing our issue she was able to arrange for us to rent the week!

Pleasantly surprised at how lovely this cottage is. Open and bright with beautiful wood floors. Large and spacious, the pictures don't do it justice. Very clean, which is the most important thing to me. The yard and small covered patio are perfect for relaxing after a full day of activities. Definitely would recommend staying in this gem.

My husband and I had the chance to escape to the Cape for a weekend, but had to find a place that accepted pets. Wendy's home was the perfect spot for us and our dog. Her home had everything you could possibly need. The kitchen had every gadget you might require. There were food staples available, coffee, sugar, spices. Her beautiful home was so comfortable and inviting, we wish we could have stayed longer. And our dog was so happy to have a yard to play in, rather than being stuck in a cramped hotel room. You will not be disappointed with this rental. We will definitely come back!

We lucked out with this cottage. Wendy and her husband are great hosts and they are very accommodating. They are quick to respond and helpful. The place is clean and well decorated. We were surprised to find two bottles of wine and beer waiting for us. They thought of everything, even down to a frosted mug in the freezer for the beer and beach toys for the kids. We felt like we were at a second home and we intend to come back !

My wife and I stayed at the Sandy Nook cottage for a week. We enjoyed its quiet location, away from the busy main road but close to all the conveniences offered by West Barnstable and to both the Marshes and the Cape Cod beaches.

The cottage is very tastefully furnished, bright and cozy, and impeccably clean. The kitchen is small but well-equipped, it has all the essentials and more. We appreciated that the hosts had left for us a garnished pantry, beers in the refrigerator, and a bottle of red wine, which made us feel almost as we were staying at our own place.

We greatly recommend this cottage and are looking forward to our next stay at Sandy Nook!

We had a lovely stay at this cottage: it looks nicer in real life than in the photos! Very spacious, tastefully furnished, comfortable, well-equipped. Peaceful setting. Very responsive and helpful owners. Close to nice beaches and walking trails.

My husband and I were blown away by this amazing find on Cape Cod. The house was perfect - anything and everything we could have needed for our stay.

The beds were very comfortable and all the rooms were beautifully appointed. A delightful home in a quiet oasis of New England charm. We even got to spend a day at the beautiful Sandy Neck beach just minutes away!
