About this property
Beautiful Cape Home w/Private Beach and Spectacular Sunsets
The house is in Monument Beach, which is in the town of Bourne. Bourne is a quiet, accessible Cape Cod town that is 'off the beaten path' relative to more well-known towns. It is a classic wooden shingled house with a private beach. We have owned this house for 40 years, we are not property managers.
This house is NEVER rented on CraigsList but scams have been attempted - do not fall for it! Message us on VRBO if you have a question.
The house is relatively large, with a deep porch wrapping around half its perimeter, facing the beach. All of the bedrooms have picture windows, and three of the bedrooms have stellar water views while the fourth looks out on the park.
The house is situated on Phinney's Harbor, the first harbor south of the Canal on Buzzards Bay on the Cape side of the Bridge. It is a gorgeous harbor with warm water and terrific conditions for children, sailing, kayaking, and fishing. The house is West facing, and blessed with perfectly stellar sunsets.
Adjacent to the property is a park with a jungle gym, a basketball court, tennis courts, and a field adequately large for a pick-up baseball game. One appealing feature of the house is its accessible location. Due to its proximity (4 miles) to the Bourne Bridge, it is easy to get to. One can frequently make the trip to the house from Boston in less than an hour and a half, even on Friday afternoons. This means that if not everyone in the family is on vacation during the rental, everyone can at least be together in the evenings.
Although this is a lovely spot, our home is not available for weddings or parties of any kind.

About the host
Hosted by Joan O’Connell
Our grandfather first purchased a house in this neighborhood in 1938 and my siblings and I grew up summering in Monument Beach.
Why they chose this property
We love the quiet village of Monument Beach and have enjoyed so many family memories in this house. Our extended family makes every effort to spend at least some time here every year. We kayak, sail, play tennis and enjoy time chatting, reading, napping and watching sunsets from the porch.
What makes this property unique
Our favorite feature of the house would have to be the beautiful sunsets that light up the sky across the bay in front of the porch. If you have children they will enjoy the playground and the tennis courts adjacent to the house.
