Long weekend over July 4th. Wooded lot on a hill overlooking Follins Pond. Private access to the water, dock, and deck on cabana overlooking same. Gorgeous! Several kayaks canoe available. Long, one level house with bedrooms at either end (enables high degree of privacy for a couple). The house (although not the waterfront itself) is very accessible for the mobility challenged, including broad flat patio off the back.
We had another wonderful week this summer. The location is perfectâ close to Mayflower Beach, grocery stores, and ice cream! The beach and kayaks got a lot of use by all of us ages 2 to 66.
Beautiful house with beautiful views. New kitchen and an eating area that overlooks the garden and kettle pond was so relaxing. Family room very spacious and also with great views of pond. We used the boat house all day with canoeing and kayaking enjoyed by entire family. Very quiet on pond and inside the house. Also the bike trail is so close and easy to bike to.
Will definitely come again.
This property is wonderful if you are young enough to climb a very steep hill after kayaking/enjoying the dock. There was a problem with the dishwasher and toilet. The host was on top of both and were fixed/replaced very quickl
Yiping has a beautiful spacious piece of property that allowed the nine of us spread out and enjoy our week away. The private dock, swimable bay, and use of kayaks made our stay quite special. Owner was attentive to repairs needed to dock and took care of it promptly.
Not a five star because of the inability to cool off the large house during the oppressive heat wave during July. However, the family had a wonderful Cape Cod experience.
Beautiful property exactly as described. Yiping was very easy to work w - my elderly mother was not able to go down to the boathouse bc of the steep incline but was still able to enjoy the water views from the house above. Each room had individual heaters, which allowed us to keep the temperature as we wanted and not have to heat the parts of the house we didnt use. So nice to have my dogs w me and for them to run around freely! (Just watch out for ticks!) I would definitely come again next time i was in the area! And having fresh filtered water already in the fridge was nice! Thank you!
The house is very nice and quite spacious. Yiping was very good with communication.
If youâre allergic to poison ivy be aware that thereâs a fair amount of it on the path to the boathouse. Iâm allergic but appear to have avoided it going down the path several times.
The house and property was a perfect location for a group ranging from 10 months to recently retired. The sand beach and one floor layout is just what we all needed, giving us freedom to be together or do our own thing. It is centrally located for Bay beaches, ice cream, the Cape Cod National Seashore and more. The host is accessible and accommodating. We will be back next summer!
We had a fabulous week at this home with our two adult children, their spouses and dogs. The house was very clean upon arrival and there were plenty of spaces for everyone to either chill on their own or hang together. We spent hours each day at the private sandy beach and boat house. There were kayaks and canoes and many inflatables first lazy floating in the calm water. The walk down to the boathouse is a little steep but once there we could stay for hours as the boathouse has a kitchen and full bath. My son and I took the kayaks out and saw egrets, swans, a blue heron and seals!! I almost capsized the kayak when the seals appeared so close to the kayak!
The owner was extremely responsive to questions we asked and even called the day after check in to make sure everything was to our satisfaction and to see if we had any questions. This was a perfect spot for a socially distanced getaway.
My family and closest friends stayed at Yiping's lovely house the other week and had a wonderful time! Yiping is a very attentive and kind host, and the week was just what we needed!
We were very excited to successfully catch lots of stripers off our own personal dock at the house- it was a most successful fishing trip! We also rented a boat and did some fishing in Nantucket Sound where we caught all sorts of other fish. Super-fun for the adults and the older kiddos!
The personal beach on the pond at the house was a perfect play area for our 2.5 year-old twins - they had a blast, and the waters were nice and calm for the young members of our group. We were all delighted to see a seal pop its head out of the pond waters! It was cute. For a moment I was nervous a shark could be about, but the waters are very shallow, and I imagine they can't get into the pond so easily.
It was easy to drive to Harwich and Chatham to walk around - places were not crowded, so it was easy to do a bit of shopping without coming too close to other people given the pandemic.
Advice for beach-goers - go after 4pm - you don't have to pay for parking then, and the beaches clear out if you're trying to avoid large gatherings. Be careful swimming in the waters - they're shark-infested!
It was a hot week and we were thankful for the new A/C at the house- we were comfortable throughout the stay. The house is on the older side and could use some updating, but this is minor. We had some issues with the cleaning crew not doing a stellar job, but Yiping was quick to rectify the situation and to make sure the cleaning crew had the information they needed to do a perfect job next time.
All in all, it was a fabulous stay! I'd recommend this property and the owner to other families looking for a nice retreat :)
This property was great. The house is large and comfortably fit two large families. Its the last house on a dead end with a large circular driveway. The dock and boat house located right on a sandy stretch of beach accommodated my 20' boat perfectly. The house is located up on a hill and the walk down to the beach takes a minute. The only thing I thought was missing was an outside shower. Other then that is was fantastic. I would definitely go back again during the summer.
Our extended family of 8 adults had a fantastic stay for the 4th of July week. The house is in a beautiful location right on the water with a nice dock and new boathouse. We spent much of our time down there relaxing. The house was perfect for our family and everything was clean and well-equipped. We were especially worried about the cleanliness during these Covid-19 times, but the cleaning crew was more than thorough. And the owner, Yiping was incredibly responsive to us at all times. We would definitely go back there.
We had a wonderful family vacation at this beautiful property. The location is perfect if you seek a quiet relaxed visit, but it is not too far from the Route 28 action. Tons of food choices nearby.
The beach and dock were great for kids swimming and fishing. Kayaks were too.
We enjoyed our week very much,
