Revisit the Cape Cod of Your Memories.

The Neighborhood: Colonial Acres at Lewis Bay is a Gem in the Town of Yarmouth. We fell in love with this neighborhood over 30 years ago. To this day it remains one of the happiest places on Cape Cod. It features quaint architecture, with tree-lined sidewalks most of the way to the beach. We love it for the friendly atmosphere where residents smile, wave, and greet each other by name. The visitors, and great neighbors make this a special place.

There is limited free parking at the beach at the end of Standish Way where a short bridge to the beach, gives it an Island Vibe. The kids love to catch blue crabs from the deck. Once on the beach on the right there is a small marina with boat slips, a boat channel and rock jetty where all enjoy fishing.

Relax in one of our beach chairs. Watch Ferries coming and going to the islands, Kayakers, Windsurfers, Sailors, Power boats, Water Skiers, and paddle boards. Never boring, there is always someone or something to watch. The beach is 1000 feet long. Your spot is waiting for you.

Exact Location: 12 Standish Way West Yarmouth.*Close to Bagels and Beyond and many restaurants, breakfast places, stores, attractions.* 1.5 miles from Hyannis and the Ferries to the Islands plus restaurants, stores and attractions.*Dozens of beaches within a 3 mile radius of our house.

The Property: 2BR 1 Bath * Homey * Fully equipped * Original built-in kitchen cabinets tastefully painted in a sea foam green with white trim and scallop shell handles. * Maple hardwood floors * Area rugs add warmth and comfort. * Soothing Summer breezes or Window Air Conditioners * Sleeps a maximum of 4 * Queen Bed * Full Bed and a Twin Bed * Pack and Play Crib * The house is 700 square feet.* Please bring your own sheets and towels. * We provide everything else. * High speed internet* Comprehensive Guest guide * Smart TV's, DVD and VCR instructions. * Movie selection * Stereo * Books.

Beautiful cape cod summer home!
Such a fantastic location - walk to the beach, the bagel shop and a short drive to all fun things on Cape Cod. Centrally located but the back yard makes you feel worlds away! Lovely neighborhood and great place to enjoy the Cape and get to all of the day trip spots. Well stocked home with anything you could need! Perfect for a couple and a nice get away! The nicest greatest hosts ever!!!!

Cape Cod Cozy
Rob and Jean are amazing hosts. Hibiscus House was comfortable and had everything we needed and more. From the moment we walked in, we felt at home. Kitchen, bedrooms, bathroom, yard (hammock!)...everything is so well kept. There was so much information provided by the hosts regarding the beaches, restaurants, and entertainment in the area. The short walk to the beach along with the chairs and beach toys were a bonus. We brought our bikes and it was only a short trip to the Cape Cod Rail Trail. It was truly a pleasure to spend our vacation here.

Great stay!
We had a great time at the Hibiscus House. It is in a great location right near the beach and restaurants galore. Easy to drive to and enjoy other towns on the Cape as well.

The Perfect Retreat
I rented the cottage for my sister and brother-in-law who were moving to the Cape from CA to look for their new home. I was only able to stay for one night personally before heading back to Nantucket but my family thoroughly enjoyed Hibiscus House for a little over two weeks. The location was superb. Daily walks to the beach were a highlight for them. Rob and Jean were the ultimate hosts, making sure they had everything they needed. We were so happy to meet them at the house and thank them personally for their hospitality. They also left an amazing book full of information of places and sites to see and visit, which included many unknown and hidden gems! I need a copy of that book! My sister’s dog, Annie, was made to feel welcome and right at home too. Many thanks to the owners for taking such great care of my family!

The perfect getaway!
We booked this stay on a whim and were so happy with it! The location was absolutely perfect and only a short walk to the beach and a really good bagel shop. The place was very clean and the hosts were very thoughtful when preparing the space during the pandemic. The cottage had everything that we needed from a grill to hammocks and we can't wait for the opportunity to come back!

About the host

Hosted by Robert Goodwin

Host profile image
Jean and I love sharing Cape Cod. We have lived in the neighborhood since purchasing it in 1985, and a personal residence in the same neighborhood that we purchased in 2003. The neighborhood has a nice community feel to it-a very friendly place due to the proximity to the beach and vacationers in the Summer.

Why they chose this property

Great back yard, wonderful neighborhood, free parking at 1000 foot local beach, convenient to all of cape cod.

What makes this property unique

Closet to Rte 28, Hospital and in the Mid Cape with equal distance access to most all of Cape Cod, and the Ferries to the Islands are only 1.5 miles away.
