Reviewer Comments:
We were very excited about our vacation. AllOf our children and friends were coming. It was embarrassing. The house was very dirty and many things in bad condition. Mold in the showers and bathrooms, very dirty kitchen, appliances, missing shades, weeds all outside and growing into the screen porch. Dirty dishes in the cabinets, most closets were a mess with old bedding and clothing and items. None were usable.

Nice quaint house in a great area in Wellfleet. Very well situated, close to town center and directly on the bayside. Kitchen well stocked with pots and pans. Spacious. Was not as clean as we expected but still ok. The only negative was the quality of the mattresses. They are severely old and require an upgrade.we would rent again if mattresses were replaced with comfortable options.

We had a great stay at this historic home with spacious living area and wonderful screened porches. Proximity to bay beach was perfect an easy walk for our 4 y/o grandchildren, playground also walking distance for adults with stroller. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking and dinning with basic supplies well stocked. We enjoyed our stay here.

My family and I had a wonderful stay in this lovely Wellfleet home -- plenty of room, great kitchen with modern appliances, and the a/c came in handy during our humid week. We would stay again.

We love Wellfleet and the location of the rental is great. This is the 4th or maybe 5th year that we rented this location and things were pretty much as they had been in the past with 2 negative changes; 1) the mosquitos were bad, treatments need to be done weekly as it was impossible to enjoy any time outside the house and 2) the cleanliness was a bit worse than in prior years, not sure if the service company was changed but the stove was dirty with debris on several of the stove knobs.

Our family really enjoyed the house. The kitchen and living room area were nice and spacious. We also enjoyed the view from the Adirondack chairs outside. Wish we could have enjoyed the screened in porches more but they were a bit soggy from the rain. Nice walking distance to beach - 10-15mins. Overall great experience. Clean and charming, very Cape Cod-esque!

A private estate with tons of room to stretch inside and out. Relaxing outdoor space close to oceanfront and beaches. Comfy rooms with lots of space to cook and entertain...helpful realtor helped me find the quiet road and home.

Reviewer Comments:
We loved the location and layout. But, the cleanliness was very disappointing. We understand, you are probably dealing with labor issues, however we feel a home should be vacuumed well before new guest arrived. It was not. The house vacuum is old and does not work that well anymore. We know as we re-vacuumed the house multiple times(when we arrive, during the stay and upon leaving). Please upgrade for the sake of your guests.The multiple fans and AC units in the house need major cleaning after heavy seasonal use during a hot summer. As soon as you turned them on, they blew dirty air throughout the rooms they were in.For the $$ paid for our visit, we just feel the house was not as clean as we would expect.

Reviewer Comments:
We enjoyed the house, but our experience with Oceanview Realty was awful. Upon taking possession of the house on Saturday afternoon we immediately saw that the freezer part of the refrigerator was broken, as the door would not close. We immediately reported this to Oceanview and asked that it be repaired ASAP. We also continued asking for the repair on Sunday and Monday, all to no avail. By then the refrigerator was not functioning well as the unit kept trying to keep the freezer cold. We had to go out and buy bags of ice to keep our food in the fridge at an appropriate temperature. On Tuesday my husband went to the Oceanview office and stated he was not leaving until the problem was taken care of. Finally someone was sent to fix the freezer on Tuesday morning. The people we spoke with at Oceanview were either nasty or of no help. We have not been offered any rebate on the rental fee or even reimbursement for the ice we had to buy to keep the fridge cool. We will not be doing business with Oceanview again and we would warn others not to as well.

This is a really nice large house close to restaurants, beaches and town It is well equipped in kitchen and patio areas but the blankets and some pillows left for use didn’t match the standards of the rest of the house .This is an easy fix.
We enjoyed our stay after a year of Covid quarantine

Reviewer Comments:
A fine house, in very good condition (happy to have air conditioners, and the screened porch in the back was wonderful). Difficult to get answers from property management staff prior to our stay. But nice people. Only downside: the property was besieged by mosquitoes, by the thousands. Walking on the property meant being under attack.
