We had a great time at the dune house. Before we arrived I had a slight concern about the size of the house but 6 adults 2 kids and a large dog were very comfortable. The view on the deck upstairs is simply amazing and nightly fires on the beach unforgettable.
Everyone around was so friendly and loved dogs which just added to the charm. Thank you for letting us use you home!!

We totally enjoyed our stay in this charming beach cottage. Cool experience being in the dunes. Loved the upstairs deck….peaceful place to enjoy the morning.
Location was great..pretty close to highway. We explored Cape Cod easily.

This is very special place. It has all of the Cape Cod charm and beauty without the typical Cape Cod crowds. It’s a beach lover’s paradise.

Great location right on the ocean. Please note if you have anyone in your party with mobility issues, getting to ocean may be a challenge as you have to walk over a small dune and the view is from the magnificent upstairs balcony.
Great sunset views every night! Watched 4 seals by the marsh outlet. Saw striped bass in the water. Lots of crabs too.

The quintessential beach house, comfy, inviting, and well loved. Coffee in the morning and sunset dinners on the upper deck were phenomenal! Set in a sand dune, you knew you were at a beach house, so be prepared to live with sand everywhere. Was thoroughly enjoyed by humans and doggos.

Great stay in Cape Cod! House was great for our 4 adults and 3 kids. You cannot get closer to the beach, that is for sure! It took some deep breathing and letting go of clean expectations to live with the constant sand, but that's the beach, right?!
The owner was wonderful to work with. Responded quickly to my questions during the booking process. Than you, Jay for sharing your home!

This property is not expensive for beachfront, but the downside is that it needs a deep cleaning and some maintenance. The everyday issues are all taken care of-bathrooms and kitchen are clean, etc., but you can smell definitely smell pets, and there is a lot of sand and pet hair. There was a bucket catching a slow leak in one of the bathrooms.
That said, this property provides a fascinating perspective on the beach. It is sited IN the dunes, so that from the lower level you are surrounded by dunes on three sides. You can’t really see the ocean from the lower level, but it feels like being in a hobbit house. We loved the experience.
The location is also interesting because you are facing the ocean, but a short walk along the beach also takes you to a gorgeous salt marsh.
We were there in October, and we had campfires on the beach at sunrise and sunset, as well as a glorious dinner on the second story deck one evening.
There are a lot of bedrooms for the space, so a lot of us were able to work remotely during parts of our stay.
Overall, I will never forget spending a week with family in the dunes at Cape Cod.

7 adult family members stayed at this lovely, comfy home for 7 nights. The house technically sleeps 10, but we all agreed that 10 would have felt really tight!
We absolutely loved the beach, especially the sand bars at low tide and the nearby channel for floating. The 2nd floor deck was perfect for dinners and sunset viewing. We had a beach fire one night and saw fireworks at a neighboring property, which was a fun surprise!
The first 4 days were super hot, so fortunately there were plenty of fans available, in addition to the ones we brought from home.
Parking is tight, but we made do with parking spaces that were available on the street.
We had trouble with the refrigerator on the first day, but Jay got right after it and resolved the issue quickly.
All in all, we loved this quintessential Cape Cod beach home and would definitely return!

You couldn't ask for better beach access and even on the hottest sunniest week-end of the summer the beach was basically private. The house is definitely "shabby chic" but has the important basics: comfortable high-quality beds, great hot showers (including outdoors), a well stocked kitchen and a gorgeous deck. There are 5 true bedrooms so no one sleeping on a pull-out! And our well-behaved dogs had a great week too! Jay is a super responsive host.

Location was wonderful. The house is nestled in the dunes, which means its sandy. Kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms all clean. Would rent again!

A true beach house with good bones.
Having a working fireplace in the house and the capability for nightly beach fires is a real treat. Parking can be a challenge. But once you're there you don't want to
leave.

This beach gem is hidden in the sand dunes. The deck across the second floor became our living and dining space. Each of the three couples had their own private access to the deck and their own private bath. The outside shower was primary for bathing. The house is beside the public beach trail but the house had its own beach path from the back door. The solar lights lit our way at night. Parking behind the house is limited to three cars. The extra small refrigerator was greatly appreciated.

We had a great family vacation at this house, right on the beach with amazing panorama of Cape Cod Bay from the expansive upper deck.
We were longing for some quiet time with our adult children, a chance to reunite and enjoy each other again in these crazy days. We felt quite safe on this beach, which is essentially private. We did have one issue with a malfunctioning refrigerator, and Jay the owner brought over a mini- fridge to tide us over until appliance repair could be facilitated. It was one example of this owner’s outstanding responsiveness. Thank you, Jay!

Jay was helpful in this crazy COVID time. We were so pleased with the cottage and the pictures did not do it justice. We had our beach shoes so the pebbles on the beach did not worry us at all. The smooth sandbars were such fun we took our chairs out and made our sandcastles. Chairs were provided so we didn’t have to Bring them from home. Thanks for a great week!

This house is perfection. We had a fairly large group and although the house is small there was plenty of room. The house is right on the beach! That is what you are paying for. The beds were very comfortable and the house was fully stocked. I cannot wait to return to this house we had the best time and we love Sandwich! Jay the owner was so helpful and quick to respond.

We had 10 people in this house and there was room for everyone - with the exception of the galley kitchen. That was a tight squeeze but we took turns cooking so it worked out well. The dining room table did seat 10 but that left a few people on the inside of the picnic style bench so they couldn't get out easily. Two of the beds upstairs weren't as comfortable as others. (one with a headboard not attached to the wall so it rattled when people turned over)
There were so many amenities - we packed too much! Plenty of beach chairs for everyone, tons of sand toys for kids. Lots of books and board games, fully stocked kitchen with two coffee pots, a blender and all silverware, dishes and utensils we could think of.
Jay was terrific, responding quickly to questions.
The only issue we had was no fault of Jay's - the dunes had piled up so it was a little incline to walk up and out to the beach. The grandmother of the group needed assistance.
Fabulous views from the deck upstairs and the kids really enjoyed the sandbars at low tide.
Terrific house - thanks, Jay!

Its the second time we rented this lovely home and still don't want to leave it! This house is so Cape Cod, comfortable and easy access for seniors. No stairs to the beach, you are on it! Everything you need is here, well furnished kitchen, great fireplace and yes fall asleep with the ocean dancing at your window. Lovely, can't wait to go back next year and next year and the next...DaRin family
