Quaint, clean house. Beautiful backyard that has a nice flat section for sitting and then slopes down to the lake. It was wonderful to have kayaks for afternoon jaunts on the lake after a morning of walking at the Mashpee Town Beach- which is connected to the South Cape Beach State Park. Drawbacks are 1) the property manager never got back to us with a solution to an issue. 2) the neighbor's house is very close and they have a TV on their porch which ruins a quiet evening on the renter's porch.

This is rustic cabin style. Some furniture is dated and some breaking (dining room chair backs cracking and broken). This furniture was the same last year when we were there. It’s not updated as the listing shows. Could use more pots and pans, baking pans. Wonderful to have kayaks and row boat available Would be nice if dock was cleaned occasionally of duck poop. It’s not part of cleaning agreement and we found brush and bucket and cleaned it ourselves since there were lots of poop on it.

Enjoyed our stay very much Not excited about Vacasa. We think we left a set of keys. They would not contact the owner. Charged me $28 to return them if found and never heard back from them. Cannot understand how they cannot contact the owners for a tenant Not fair to the tenant or the owners. Very disappointing.

The location was great. The cottage was cute and clean and the screened in porch was awesome! We used the queen bed and it was very comfy. We wish there was a real couch as a loveseat is small for 2 people to curl up and watch a movie. And the kayaks were full of water so we had to empty them before use. But we would consider renting here again.

We loved our stay. Felt secluded even though there were housed on both sides. Wonderful view with the leaf change. Cabin had everything we needed for our week on the Cape.

We have mixed feelings about this property. On the one hand the location is perfect - secluded and lakefront - yet close to everything on the western part of the Cape. We loved sitting on the dock in the early evening. And our boys LOVED fishing the pond. (They used the kayaks and caught over 100 fish between the two of them during the course of the week.) On the other hand, the cottage itself is tired and dirty. If you have allergies do NOT rent this place. As soon as we opened the door we were hit with a pungent, acrid, musty/mildewy smell. We had to buy a candle to help mask the smell. My allergies were off the chart because of the mold/mildew. The couch cover and bathroom rug were so filthy we couldn’t use them. And the amount of dust and dirt on the screens of the the enclosed porch was appalling. The fans inside the house were covered in dust so we couldn’t use them either. There were no utensils for the BBQ (and the grates in the BBQ need to be replaced). We saw similar complaints from late in the season last year but subsequent reviews suggested they fixed the problems. We communicated immediately with Vacasa about the issues (and there are more than I've listed here) and was told someone local would contact us and make everything right but no one did. Instead, they credited the cleaning fee which was nice. This property could have a lot of charm, but it needs someone to care just a little bit more.
