We stayed at Nina and Dave’s place for the month of July and had a great experience! The house is a short walk to restaurants/bars, ice cream, and the beach. It was well stocked (especially the kitchen) and if we needed something, Nina was responsive and accommodating. We really enjoyed our time in Onset and would rent from Nina and Dave again.

Home is just as listed and photos show. Nina was very welcoming and communicative with anything that may have been needed (we didn’t need anything, the house is fully stocked/furnished and everything worked great!). My kids enjoyed all the fun decor and we all enjoyed comfortable beds. No A/C as usual for beach homes here but the fans throughout the home kept it a very comfortable temperature! We’d love to stay here again.

We have made our trip to the Cape an annual event for a few years now. We specifically stay at this property. It has easy access to local beaches and for further distant adventures. Very quiet neighborhood within walking distance to a small local beach. Property has everything you need and the hosts are wonderful. Highly recommend.

This is the second year we have rented from Nina & Dave and have fallen in love with the home as well as the attentiveness of the owners. We feel at home in their vacation home and plan to make this a yearly trip - we’ve been coming to Onset for close to 15 years and so far this is the perfect rental for us

We have nothing but high praises for this delightful gingerbread cottage. It had everything we needed to cook, be comfortable and completely relax. The attention paid to numerous whimsical touches elevates it beyond your average cottage. You can feel the lovely vibe as soon as you open the door. The proximity to the cove and the town beach is ideal. Thank you Nina and Dave for creating such a lovely place to be. By the time we left my grandson was well on his way to playing piano, a gift from the hummingbirds and butterflies I am sure! We would love to return next year.

Very well equipped, lovely cottage close to beach and a few minutes from the center of Onset. We appreciated the well-stocked kitchen, the games and books, the herb and flower garden, and sitting on the deck. Highly recommended!
