    Nicest Spot we found in 30 years - Five Stars

    We found this listing on Airbnb but understand all Summer weeks are booked through WNAV, even better no silly fees! We have been coming to the Cape for 30 years with family and this property is far and away the nicest place we have ever found. The location is great, the house is extremely spacious, the interior is immaculate and beautiful, every bed is so comfortable and the back yard is wonderful for BBQs after a day at the beach. Thank you for even supplying firewood for the fire pit, my husband loved it! We had 13 people so we did prefer to go to the ocean (Chatham beaches are the best!) but the little kids in our group loved using the private beach to take out the SUPs and the kayaks in the morning. Our entire family loved evenings in the finished lower level to watch sports, play pool, air hockey and cards. The entire experience was amazing and going forward we have promised each other to return annually. Thank you to the amazing host for all the hard work to create this space & for sharing it with us. Worth every penny! show more show less

    A beautifully well-kept, meticulously clean home that is well stocked with everything you can think of. The house is in a centralized location, close to everything yet very quiet and peaceful. This is a great home for big families, with plenty of room for everyone to have their own space but also provides plenty of common space to eat and play together. Tracy is a super host, she provides quick feedback and assistance when needed yet still gives the vacationer their privacy. We are definitely going to rent this house again next summer !!! show more show less

    Best Vacation Ever - Best Host Ever!

    Our extended family (ages 80 to 2) of 14 people stayed here for seven days and this property was really perfect for us in every way. To start with the host was very nice and took the time to chat with me before booking so all my questions were answered and I could prepare easily. The layout of the house is wonderful, very spacious and very clean. The kitchen is very well equipped and we wanted for nothing, the bedrooms were all very roomy and the beds were so comfortable! We liked having three bathrooms inside and an outdoor shower! The lower level was so fun at night to play games (lots of games in the closets), billiards, ping pong, air hockey, Netflix! The backyard was really fun with all the yard games provided and we loved taking the kids down to the small neighborhood beach, it was perfect for them and the adults made use of the onsite kayaks and SUPs. Long Pond is awesome!!! We have been coming to the Cape for thirty years and this is by far the best home we have ever rented, we did not want to leave. The memories we made here will last a lifetime and we will look forward to coming back again and again. show more show less

    Incredible House and Amazing Host

    Absolutely incredible property. Has all the amenities you could want. Lots of entertainment available in the home including a ping ping table and a pool table. The host was extremely nice and very easy to communicate with. The check in and check out process was smooth and easy. Great for a summer vacation or a winter retreat to spend time with friends. This will be the first place I look to stay when returning to the Cape.

    Best Rental Yet!

    This is our third time to Cape Cod, and we have rented different houses each year...this is the most accommodating house yet and will be happy to return here our next trip:) We were vacationing with three families...enjoyed a quick trip to beaches in Chatham, Brewster and Orleans (Rivervale and Skaket are two of our faves), the pond was great for kayaking, fishing and splashing around. The home is very centrally located to all activities. It was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The game room kept the kids occupied during our downtime and there was more than enough room to accommodate all twelve of us. Very happy to highly recommend this house. show more show less

    Relaxing Getaway

    Tracy, the owner, gave great thought and care to each step of this rental process. She handled the contract quickly, reached out before our stay with instructions for check-in and even had fresh flowers on the counter as we entered! The home was equipped with everything you need for the beach, and even games and some toys for the kids when we were hanging out at the house. The kitchen had all the essentials! The rooms are spacious and comfortable beds. The path to the pond led to a very small private beach. This walk was a little challenging for some folks in our party. My son however thought it was an adventure! Plenty of room for us all to spread out and relax. Highly recommend!
    Thank you

    Hi Jess

    Thank you so much for your kind and generous review - we are so glad you all had a great stay and found the house to be a good fit. I will say that the path to the beach is "temporarily challenging".
    We had a tornado come through Harwich three weeks ago and that is why the path is not 100 percent clear. We will have that all cleaned up in short order and your son will have to find an alternative adventure. How about a whale watch? Ha ha ha. Glad you liked the house and I am glad you all found it to be spacious and relaxing. Thanks for the recommendation - please let us know if you wish to return we would love to have you back to make more memories. Enjoy the rest of the Summer and be well.

    The Perfect Vacation Home for a Large Family

    We just returned from a fabulous week minutes away from Long Pond in Harwich MA. Fourteen of us with seven grandchildren found this rental ideal. Tons of space, immaculate and even more beautiful than the pictures.

    The early risers would take advantage of the huge play room and TV entertainment center in the finished basement, allowing others to sleep without hearing a peep from all the activity below. All of the bedrooms were large and the beds very comfortable.

    The two indoor dining areas handled our crowd with ease. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need. We bought a huge amount of groceries on day one and had room for everything thanks to the second fridge in the garage.

    The yard was great for T-ball and corn hole. The outdoor shower was perfect for rinsing off the little ones coming back from the beach.

    Long Pond was a perfect area for the grandchildren (all 7 years of age or younger ) to swim. We enjoyed Red River Beach in Harwich which is only an 8 minute drive away and the kids loved the tidal pools at Mayflower beach (on the bay side with a huge flat beach to explore as low tide approaches). They provided us with everything from beach chairs to kayaks.

    We rent a big place every year and this was the nicest vacation home we have ever found! If you are lucky enough to rent this property you will not be disappointed.

    Growing up in central Massachusetts every Summer my Sisters and I would get one week of vacation each Summer on Cape Cod - Usually staying with our Grandmother in the mid cape. That week each year was so special to us all, we left our cares behind and spent 7 carefree days by the sea shore, digging for clams, eating to our hearts content and experienced a family closeness that just was never achieved back home. As I got older and had children of my own (2 girls Grace (14) and Adrianna (9)) I made it my top priority to give them memories down in Cape Cod as well. My husband Mike and I are really over the moon grateful to have the house in Cape Cod, we call it our happy place. This is a home not a rental and once you step inside you will know that. We both work full time and are busy raising our darling daughters, we only have so much vacation time so we want to rent the house out to friends a handful of weeks each Summer so we can afford to keep making upgrades to the property over time. Thanks for helping us live our dreams.


    What is special about this property?
    This house is like a home and when you stay here you feel it. The house itself is immaculate, spacious, accessible and so so comfortable. Just outside the front door you walk down the quiet street and in just a few steps you are convenient to so many attractions. Just across the street you can jump on the bike trail and bike all the way to P Town! The location cannot be beat!


    What is special about your town?
    Check out trip advisor and other online spots to see all that the town has to offer then tell me what you like to do and I can direct you towards the best activities to match your interests.

    We want you to come to our house and have the time of your life with the people you love the most in the world - that is what life is all about folks !!!
