Our vacation at Denise's Dragonfly home, was wonderful! Her home is very charming, clean and comfortable. She had all of the amenities we were looking for. It was truly a great place to relax with family and friends! Thank you again Denise for everything!
Sincerely,
Dina

Our stay at Denise's was very enjoyable. There were many amenities at the house, including convenient items like high chair for our little one. The beds were extremely comfortable. The house was clean and spacious and having two full bathrooms was key for our group. The pool was a huge plus. The area was nice for walking and we loved strolling to electric beach or driving the short distance to Onset beach, both of which are ideal for small kids and not overly crowded. Denise was responsive and helpful. Overall a good experience and would recommend it.

We came down for a nice and relaxing vacation for a week and had the best time. The kid's ages 17, 15, 15, 11, 11 and 10 had a blast playing chess in the yard, swimming and the hot tub. The 3 younger kid's spent a lot of time on the swingset while the adults would enjoy the back patio relaxing and vooking on the grill. We also played a lot of cards and ate all our meals at the big dinning room table that fit all 10 of us. Everyday we would go for a ride to beaches and shopping, even did whale watching which was amazing.
Denise the host was amazing and she checked in with us upon arrival and made sure everything was great during our stay also. She provided an ornament for our tree with a picture of the house on it and we are excited to hang it this year on our tree. We would definitely stay here again :) thank you Denise for letting us enjoy your amazing house.

Our family with two young kiddos had a blast jumping between pool, hot tub, games, playground, kayaking, and seafood lunches, all available on site or walking distance. The house itself was very nice and well maintained. Overall we were very impressed with our stay at the Dragonfly.

The Dragonfly House was a great option for our stay in the Cape Cod area. It was clean, spacious, and within a reasonable drive to many attractions, which was great since we experienced cooler temperatures and had to rearrange our plans a bit. Although we didn’t get to use the pool, we were able to use the hot tub, kayaks, and bikes which were all added bonuses for our stay there. Denise was great to work with through the entire process! We would definitely recommend this house for anyone looking to stay in the Cape Cod area.

This was our second stay at the Dragonfly House! Our family of 6 adults, 2 children, and 2 dogs stayed for the weekend and enjoyed the Polar Express, which was a 2 minute drive. The house is always so so clean and homey! The kitchen/dining area is great for a large family and living room has plenty of room for everyone to enjoy.

Our family of 8 really enjoyed our stay at the Dragonfly beach house. The house was cozy for our large group and we enjoyed all the amenities of the outdoor games, hot tub, fire pit, short walks to town and to the water. It was well equipped for the large group, with plenty of dishware, flatware, towels, toilet paper, etc. Five of us worked remote and the WiFi handled it fine—which was particularly important. We loved playing cards and games at the oversized dining table.
Thanks, Denise, for a great stay and for your special touches for us! We will be back!

Beautiful home and amazing experience! Denise made sure everything was in order for our stay. The kids had a great time and we enjoyed exploring the Heritage Museum and Gardens and the Cape Cod Children’s Museum. Denise’s book of recommended activities is also very helpful! We would definitely stay again. :)

We had a wonderful, relaxing time at this house. Denise is a welcoming and supportive hostess who goes out of her way to make you feel comfortable (the robes in each bedroom are great for a journey to the hottub on a cool Fall day!) It was so nice to relax with a fire in the firepit! The house is beautifully appointed, the beds comfortable, and the location perfect, with local restaurants as well as easy access to historic Plymouth, the Cape, and Boston.

Great location just at the start of the cape. Came here for a week at the dragonfly house with friends and small kids. The property was perfect for the group and kids. Location was nice to be able to hang by the bay or drive out to other areas of the cape. Easy walk to nearby town. We had minor issues with the fire alarm but Denise addressed it quickly and we didn’t worry about it for the rest of the week. House was stocked and all you need to bring is food (and containers if you plan to cook or have leftovers). Mattresses were all very comfortable. Plenty to do and see! Denise left a very handy welcome book at the house.

Beautiful property! The kids enjoyed all of the outdoor amenities. So much to do right at the rental- pool, jacuzzi, playground, firepit, and more. Plus only a 5-minute walk to Electric Beach. It's my second year staying and we will be back again.

Our family really enjoyed our stay at Denise’s. The house had everything we needed on days we wanted to stay close to home. The pool and hot tub were very clean. The house was supplied with plenty of dishes, cups, etc. for 10 people to stay. We played cornhole everyday and the kids loved being able to go on the swings. We loved to take the five minute walk to Electric Beach to swing and watch the beautiful sunsets. Great location just a short drive to the places we love in the Cape. There were a few issues during our stay and Denise was quick to respond and take care of them. I would say this is the perfect house and neighborhood for a family trip!

Perfect for Families
One of the best rental properties I have stayed at. Denise was so helpful and thorough leading up to the trip and throughout the stay. Plenty of household items that made life easy and special touches like s’mores and sand toys for the kids. The pool, hot tub and playground were all a hot!

We had such a lovely vacation at the Dragonfly Beach house! A few little problems at the beginning of our stay, but Denise was very attentive and addressed them quickly which we appreciated. The pool was a hit while the kids were napping. Lots of plates and cups in the cabinets. The house had very nice appliances. The outside grill was great too. The swing-set at the house didn’t work out for us, but the nearby splash-pad was awesome for the kids and there were a lot of great playgrounds close driving distance to the house too. The corn-hole set was great and we enjoyed playing after the kids went to bed. Fire pit was fun at night. We really appreciated Denise’s sweet gesture of s’mores ingredients upon arrival at the house as well as champagne for those of us celebrating anniversaries on the trip. The beach near the house (Electric beach) was small and quiet. It made for a nice short walk and the kids loved swinging on the swings overlooking the water. Also near the house, was a great ice cream spot called Mic’s. We found ourselves walking there almost every day and strolling along the canal overlooking the train bridge (very cool!) eating our ice cream. We drove to a few other nearby beaches all of which we would recommend: Onset, Scusset, and Old Silver Beach. We also took a day trip to Falmouth to do a little souvenir shopping—very cute town. We also visited the Treehouse Brewery in Sandwich which was a cool spot (need to make reservations in advance). The location of the house was great —lots to do. It gave us the chance to venture around without having to drive more than 25 minutes. The neighborhood is very family friendly too. Overall, we had a wonderful time on our vacation! We look forward to coming back to Cape Cod! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Perfect rental
I decided to go to cape cod for something different. We usually go to rhode island/block island. I found this perfect house with everything you would need. Spacious, clean, hot tub, pool & dog friendly. We didn’t bring our dog because sometimes rentals say they’re dog friendly but they’re not…this definitely was…I highly recommend this rental:..owner was excellent about communicating as well.

We were looking to get away with family to celebrate key birthdays & a wedding engagement. The Dragonfly House was the perfect choice!
The gingerbread victorian house was roomy, stylish, charming, yet modernized. The beds were so comfy. The kitchen & the showers were top notch! The yard was beautiful and we enjoyed the hot tub, yard games, fire pit & grill when relaxing "at home". The home is close and convenient to day-trip locations on the Cape, while nestled in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood. This home seems a perfect "base" in any season, year-round. Our host, Denise, could not have been more attentive and easy to deal with. She has filled the home with more special touches & luxuries than one can list here to make her guests feel pampered.
We can wait to return with more of our family!

Highly recommendable. Excellent communication with host. Clean, clean, and did I say clean? Utilities were top notch. The kitchen was well stocked. Great coffee products, etc, etc. Although we did not use them the hot tub and pool are right there in arms distance. Very close to all activities. Research what you want to do nearby and this is the place you want to stay.
