About this house rental
Nestled in East Falmouth, this lovely house for $525 per night is a fantastic choice for your next break. Welcome to the quintessential Cape Cod town of Falmouth in the desirable Great Harbors neighborhood! We are excited to share with you our dream beach cottage. Having rented on the Cape for over 30 years, we consider ourselves the “professional renters” and know first hand what helps to make the perfect worry-free vacation! The Space Our home was completely renovated inside and out in 2020. Literally everything is BRAND NEW! From the fully stocked kitchen to the cozy and comfortable beds. As you enter the front door you are welcomed into a large, open great room with cathedral ceilings, plenty of lighting including recessed and coastal fixtures, brand new bright white kitchen with high end finishes and appliances. The quartz island that seats four has plenty of room for games, puzzles and happy hour cocktails! For a sit down meal our dining area has seating for six with an extendable table for guests. An oversized sectional provides comfortable seating for everyone along with a 65” wall mounted Smart TV with cable. Hardwood floors throughout, central AC controlled with a Nest thermostat. Off the main living area is a full bathroom with a tiled shower and upgraded finishes. Hand soap and towels are included of course! Down the hall are two queen bedrooms, each decorated and furnished in a casual coastal theme. A spacious closet and dresser in each so you can unpack and feel right at home. Nightstands on BOTH sides of the beds!! The master bedroom completes your single level living with a king sized bed, another spacious closet, dresser, and a full en-suite bathroom with high end fixtures. All our bedrooms include brand new mattresses, freshly laundered linens and beds made upon your arrival. The house is great but you may enjoy relaxing in our private, peaceful backyard even more! The spacious patio has a wicker dining set for six, an offset umbrella, propane grill, and Adirondack chairs around a wood fire-pit. Tiki torches and patio lights complete the evening ambiance! Plenty of lawn space for games, they are included too and will be stored in the garage. Who doesn’t love an outdoor shower after a long day at the beach? Our brand new oversized shower with separate changing area will be perfect! The Extras Our cottage is stocked with all the comforts of home and absolutely everything to help you enjoy your best Cape Cod vacation ever! Just some of the extras include beach chairs, umbrella and beach towels; plenty of lawn games, board games and puzzles; hand soap for the bathrooms and kitchen; hair dryers; iron and ironing board; all towels and bedding freshly laundered. We also include enough basic supplies to get you through a day or two without having to go to the store: k-cups, paper towels, toilet paper, dish, dishwasher, hand and laundry soap. The Green Harbors Resident Association allows renters to purchase a weekly pool membership which includes unlimited access to the in-ground heated water view pool, children’s pool, tennis courts, pickle ball courts, recreational club, beach house and all association activities for that week. It was $350 for a week (Summer 2023 season) and includes passes for 6 people. A child 3 and under does not require a pass. This can be purchased ahead of time through the association or when you arrive. The Location Great Harbors is one of the most desirable waterfront neighborhoods in Falmouth. We fell in love with the area immediately! We are a short walk away from a small private association beach on Great Pond. Great for little ones to play, launching your kayak/paddleboard or watching the sunset with a cocktail. The association also includes a playground, beach volleyball court and dock space for drop-off and pick-ups. All within a short walk. There are several public boat launches nearby as well. If you need to venture outside our community, you will find a sidewalk along Acapesket and Menauhant Roads to bring you right to the ocean! Just a little over a mile. Both Menauhant Beach and Bristol Beach are a short bike ride away. Within 2 miles you will find Smitty’s Homemade Ice Cream, Cape Cod Winery and Bad Martha’s Brewery. Something for everyone! Less than 10 minute drive to downtown Falmouth. Honestly, too many great things in Falmouth to mention but know that you are close to all of them!

Kathleen and her family welcomed to us into their home and we very much enjoyed our stay. The house is in beautiful condition and offers all the amenities a family with small children could ask for. The location was very convenient to beaches and downtown Falmouth, and we would certainly stay there again in the future. Kathleen was a wonderful host and very responsive, we thank her for making our trip to Cape Cod so nice.

The house was pristine, comfortable and so well-equipped! We enjoyed evenings eating on the patio and hanging at the firepit as much as our days at the nearby beaches and other Falmouth activities. We look forward to returning.

My wife and I rented this property for three nights in early August 2023 for ourselves, our son and daughter-in-law, and their children, ages 1 and 3. The property is well situated in East Falmouth, where there are several beaches, many restaurants, and shopping, all within a few miles.
We spent one morning at Menauhant Beach, one morning at Surf Drive Beach, and one morning first at the Great Harbors Resident Association playground (within walking distance) and later at the Cape Code Children's Museum. Both beaches had ample non-resident parking for $20. As the youngsters needed to nap, we spent afternoons on the property, playing games in the house or yard. The backyard is lovely, tree-shaded, and sporting a hammock, ring-toss game, Adirondack chairs, and a patio with a table surrounded by chairs and shaded by a large folding umbrella. In the garage are several games for older children as well as a wooden cornhole set appropriate for any age.
The owners responded to our pre-visit questions quickly and were very accommodating. For example, we knew we would arrive early and asked if we could enter the house before 5:00. They said we could enter as soon as it was cleaned and that they would text us when the cleaning was finished, which they did.
The kitchen and bathrooms were stocked with everything a visitor might need and we were surprised with the addition of a welcome basket. The beds were comfortable. Lighting was excellent. Electrical outlets were plentiful.

Beautiful and spacious inside. Great for everybody close to everything. Close to the beach close to Main Street shopping you can even take a bike ride. Then at night you can relax at the fire pit roasting marshmallows.

We loved our week-long stay! The house was in immaculate condition and was incredibly comfortable. Our family especially loved the backyard for grilling and hanging out after days at the beach. The other huge positive is the pool at the residents association, where our kids went to swim every afternoon. This wasn’t our first time staying the the neighborhood and won’t be our last! Would recommend this house to anyone! Thanks for an amazing week!

The home and location was beyond our expectations. The house was tastefully decorated and very clean. Kathy truly thought of everything to create an inviting and fun environment to create lasting memories with our family. She was kind to check in with us upon our arrival, leave a welcoming basket with essentials to get us started, had a well stocked kitchen, and the garage had plenty of beach chairs and games to play in the large yard with a forest view. The outdoor shower was great to clean off the sand after a day at the beach. We enjoyed Menauhat Beach, which was close by and not too crowded, but recommend taking a 15 minute ride one day to Old Silver Beach, which had less rocks. Loved our stay and hope to return!

The Fords have thought of everything you might need to make your stay enjoyable. From a well-stocked kitchen (including sharp knives & grilling utensils!) to spotlessly clean bathrooms, Tide pods for an unexpected load of laundry, very tasteful furnishings and even a front-porch day bed to enjoy your morning coffee. We very much appreciated having a "home" that included king and queen beds and wasn't crammed with sleeping spaces. Because, let's face it, once you reach a certain age, you just don't want to sleep in a twin bed or share a room with someone other than your significant other. And, not everyone travels with children. We're already talking about a return trip and please let us know if you ever consider selling. :-)

My family has been to Cape Cod many times. This was our favorite house rental to date. The home was beautifully decorated and spotless. The owner was very responsive and even checked in to make sure my family was having a good time. The backyard is perfect for sitting around the fire pit to make s’mores and there were several lawn games to borrow in the garage. We would definitely stay again.

Wonderful Stay!
We had a great time at Kathleen’s home; she was a wonderful host and was friendly, accommodating, and quick to answer any questions we had. The house was very nice, clean, and worked great for our family. The location was great; we were able to quickly get into town or the beach but also enjoyed walks around the neighborhood. We hope to come back!
