Quick weekend trip with little kids. Everything we needed. Walk to the beach, clean comfortable beds, nice bathrooms and great outdoor shower. The deck is a nice spot to sit and relax once the kids have gone to sleep, without waking them. Would definitely recommend.
4.0 / 5.0
It had everything you needed.2 fans in every room. But one air conditioner in the window by the back door would have cooled the whole house down. Nice open floor plan. Was very hot and muggy when we were there. Much needed hand rails on front steps would have been nice. And some cleanup landscaping would have made the outside look much more appealing. Great walking areas. The ocean is just around the corner and 4 beaches are close by. You could even walk to one if you were up for it. Dennis is a beautiful area!

There's some benefits to staying in this home; close/walkable (10-12 min) to Bayview beach, very quiet & peaceful, and is close to parks, restaurants, etc.
Because there is no AC, when we arrived, both bathroom floors had a lot of water on them due to the toilet tanks condensing. The cable didn't work, the outside trash can was completely full. The coffeemaker wasn't cleaned, and the trash bags were dirty from being reused.
The property manager was very responsive. A contractor came by to check, the toilets, they scheduled a trash pick up, and had the cable company come out to replace the cable box.
5.0 / 5.0
Staying in the house was so convenient especially due to the accessibility to the ocean. The neighbors are non invasive and it is nice.

Less than stellar
Arrived at 3:45, 15 minutes early for check in and cleaner was just getting there, claimed that they had gotten lost. Was not finished in time for us to check in at 4.
Found tampon applicator and empty bottles under master bed.
Trash cans were all full on arrival, animals got into them and spread trash through yard, and we had no where to put bags. Took 3 days to get a response from 1 of the 3 phone numbers we were given as local contacts. I picked up the trash so we didn’t have to look at it.
Advertised that house has AC, it does not.
Outdoor shower is a great feature but extremely unkempt with rotted wood.
Second time staying here, first stay was similar, had given them a second chance as everyone has a bad day, figured it would be better. It wasn’t.
Liked the beach it’s close to, and the walk was easy.

Nice house, no A/C
The listing specifically said the house had air conditioning, and it did not. It was a clean enough home, with a short walk to the beach, but not having air conditioning (especially when that was expected) was a huge disappointment - particularly with children and during a heat wave no less. It’s a decent place for the money, but be warned.

Great Location and Comfy
I rented this property for my son and four other friends as they prepared for our son's mini-wedding. The house was very comfortable and welcoming.

Drains and coffeemaker
Drains in the kitchen and master bedroom are not drains too well. We had to buy our own coffee maker since we could not get the one in the kitchen to work

This place needs TLC!
Although this rental is only about a 5 minute walk to Bayview Beach, the property and house need A LOT of work. Not worth the money that I was charged to stay here!

Sweet home in East Dennis
This home was exactly as described . Immaculate to walk into. Had hard time getting key lock to open and there was no back up key. After 3 phone calls got the right person who knew the trick to open lock box. Home is spacious and rooms were good size. I would live there year round If I could. Growing up on the cape is hard to go back and not have your family home anymore and have to rent a place. But loved our t iij me there and would recommend this home to anyone.
4.0 / 5.0
Rented this cute place. Found it immaculate and cozy. There were some issues getting with the lock box and after the 3rd phone call got someone who knew how to open it. Would for sure rent this place again. With two full bathrooms for 3 ladies it was perfect
Easy 10 minute walk to Bayview beach. Was there for our 50th DY HS reunion. So it was great to stay on the 6A side of the cape.

Vacanza itinerante
Durante il mio viaggio itinerante ho fatto tappa 3 notti a Dennis: la casa era perfetta pulita accogliente e con tutte le indicazioni necessarie. Nessun problema. Grazie di cuore ai proprietari.

Nice beach vacation
Place was clean and very easy to access beach. Exactly what the listing says.
There maybe some poison ivy near parking spots. Just a heads up.
Nice place overall.

Location, location, location!
This house is in a GREAT location. A short walk to the beach, quiet neighborhood, short walk or drive into town for ice cream. Our family spent 10 days here and really enjoyed ourselves. The property manager was VERY responsive both to easy questions (is there recycling?) and more complicated problems like what to do with the food in the fridge when there was a power outage in the neighborhood (she offered to bring us ice and a cooler!).

Location, location, location!
This house is in a quiet, lovely neighborhood and very close to Bayview Beach -- one of the nicest beaches in Cape Cod. It was also convenient to town, restaurants, shopping and other activities. While there is no A/C (which was not a problem for us as the evenings were cool enough) and the furniture and appliances are a little outdated, the house is clean and well maintained.

Review of property
Short walk to beach. Home was adequately furnished. Mattresses on bed were not comfortable and the yard was not mowed. The deck had a lot of tree debris on it.

Great short stay
He location near the beach was great. It’s more than a 400 yd walk even through the Lunette Ln shortcut but it wasn’t more than a 10 min walk. The house had pretty much everything there was to be comfortable with the exception of A/C. There are fans in every room but with the mid 70 humid nights sleeping can be tough if you aren’t use to ac. Loved the area for our first trip to Cape Cod.

Walk to the beach at this centrally located home
I loved this spacious home that we could walk to a beautiful beach or drive all along the cape in good time!

Awesome!
I have stayed at this house the past two summers with the same group of friends and we have loved it. The house is very close to Mayflower beach, so you can walk back and forth in about 5-10 minutes. We dropped off some of our heavier stuff (coolers, chairs, etc) and then dropped off the car at home to save on parking. Aside from the proximity, the house is a little old, but has all the essentials. The outdoor shower has been our favorite aspect. Additionally, there is a nice little yard and deck area to hang out and grill/play games after a long day at beach. Finally, the house is relatively secluded. We are a younger crowd and can be louder at night, so this was perfect for us. Overall, both stays were great. Definitely recommend!

Great location on a quiet street!
We stayed here with a few friends for a wedding in Dennis and could not have been happier with this home. It's in a lovely neighborhood with a secluded, well-kept backyard, two blocks from a view of the ocean and about a third of a mile to the public beach access. The furnishings are a bit older, however, we were very budget-minded this trip and it did not bother us. We were just disappointed we didn't have more time to use the corn hole boards we found in the basement!

Awesome weekend!
We stayed out here for our wedding weekend. We wanted a cute, quaint place to stay that was close to the beach and our family and friends, and this place delivered. All three bedrooms were a nice size, though we only used one, and the kitchen had everything we needed. There was a ton of natural light (which our photographer appreciated!) and more than enough space to entertain the wedding guests who popped in and out all weekend.

The quaint house in Dennis
This home was perfect for our family attending a wedding on the Cape. It was in close proximity to everything. Just a short walk to beautiful Mayflower Beach. Very comfortable home with all of the necessities. The house was immaculately clean and tidy. We highly recommend this adorable house for anyone staying in Dennis who likes privacy.

Glad there is a path to cut the walk down.
Love Bayview beach
