Nestled in a wooded area adjacent to a preserve, the house is very quiet with a cozy firepit and picnic area in back. An outdoor shower helps keep sand to a minimum indoors. Beach chairs and umbrella are in an easily accessible shack in back. All beds and furniture are comfortable and the layout indoors is perfect for multigenerational living. An open floorplan with large patio on the first floor (and one offset bedroom with large closet, two large dressers and bath) provides ample space for multiple concurrent activities. Two bedrooms, ample closet space and dressers, and a bathroom with walk-in shower are available upstairs. Dogs are permitted, but not being dog owners, we are glad that was not evident (they provide towels for wiping down your pet before allowing it indoors). The house is located about 1 block from the bay (you do have to cross a 2-way road) and about a mile from a very popular and delicious beachfront restaurant. The owners provide suggestions for multiple activities within easy driving distance. We drove to the Atlantic side of the cape and are SO glad we stayed here as it is much quieter and we virtually had the beach to ourselves! All in all, we highly recommend this home for a peaceful family getaway.
