About the owner: We have been vacationing on the Cape for years and we are excited to welcome guests to our new rental property to make memories! We LOVE Falmouth due to the variety of beaches, amazing seaside bike path, proximity to Martha's Vineyard, and charming, lively downtown! Our neighborhood, Great Harbors, is extremely family friendly and you will see plenty of people out walking, jogging, and riding their bikes all summer long.
Why this property? Our house is a quintessential Cape style home, with one bedroom on the main level and two bedrooms upstairs, which allows for privacy for guests. Our favorite room is probably the outdoor shower, followed by the spacious yet cozy living room!

Charming Cape house in great location
Great location near playground, beaches and Falmouth center. Charming Cape house with three comfortable bedrooms and spacious backyard. Located less than a five minute walk to a local playground and five minute drive to the beach to enjoy the sun. The house was comfortable and clean with all our needed amenities. The location was ideal to enjoy all Falmouth had to offer and on a quiet residential street. We had a wonderful long weekend and would love to return again.

Harbor Haven
The Seaside Gem is just that! A peaceful retreat after a day at the beach, or cycling the Shining Sea Bikeway to Woods Hole! The location is perfect, close to everything you would want on a Cape vacation. I actually slept better here than I do at home! Thanks for sharing your home with us….we will return!

Awesome cape house
This house is in a quiet neighborhood with easy access to pickle ball courts and a playground. Kat (the owner) was very friendly and accessible. The house is surprisingly large on the inside and has 6 beds. We loved the hammock and the outdoor shower and grill. We will definitely be back!
