Excellent hosts who provided the very best accommodations. I have to say their home is #1 of all the VRBO places I have stayed. Nothing could have made the visit to the Cape better....well, except maybe more blue-sky weather!
We really enjoyed our stay. Close to the beach and restaurants and we loved all of the personal touches throughout. The breezeway was the best with the comfy furniture (especially the chaise lounge). One of the best houses we have ever stayed in on the Cape! We loved it!
This house is adorable and in a great location. My husband and I have stayed here once before and this past august vacation was also great. The updates to the house are beautiful. Hoping to come back next year.

We loved having you and your husband as guests. You are welcome back anytime!
Very clean home and great central location to see all of Cape Cod. We met the super nice neighbor staying at the house next door, also a rental by Lynn and Steve. Liked the outdoor shower. Great stay and communication with the owners. Home was well equipped with towels, linens and kitchen items.
This was a wonderful vacation rental. The home was very clean and nicely decorated. I appreciated the owner contacting me after check in to ensure all was fine. Would definitely recommend this rental to anyone visiting Cape Cod. I will be renting again if I return to the Cape.
We had an awesome week at Summer Ayer - 6/5/21 to 6/12/21. The home is spotless and very convenient to the beach, bike trails, golf and several other Cape attractions. Lynn and Keith added several nice touches such as paper products, coffee, wine and chocolate which were most appreciated. We would highly recommend this property! Ann & Rick

Ann and Rick were awesome guests. They treated our house like it was their own. They left it so clean we thought the cleaning crew had already cleaned the house. They are welcome back anytime!
This house was perfect for our short-term Winter rental. We stayed here while our own house was being renovated. Great location, fully stocked, and super clean. Despite the weather we enjoy long walks after work and this house is less than 1 mile to the Beach. The owners Keith and Lynn were wonderful and always available when we had questions. We will definitely recommend this house to family and friends.

An excellent retreat
I was going to start off with a one star review, given our Monday was a complete washout. Turns out Keith did not wave his magic wand that day.
Only joking!
This vacation was spectacular.
On arrival:
Everything we needed was provided:
sheets, towels, where to eat, gas for the BBQ.
This was a perfect getaway for Massachusetts residents, (or indeed anyone), everything was perfect, couldn't fault anything.
We look forward to our follow up vacation next year.
Everything was as advertised:
South Yarmouth - Check
Walk to beach - Check (we didn't, 4yr/2yr old)
High Speed Internet - Check
Bottom line: If you feel that you are not happy with this rental, something is seriously wrong with you. A family of 4 with high expectations exited here already looking forward to booking next year.
This was by far the best VRBO/Air B&B type experience we have ever had (and we've had a few). Keith and Lynn are absolutely fantastic hosts and go above and beyond to make sure your stay is enjoyable for all. Lynn knew we were travelling with two young kids and went so far as to gift our children toy/plush whales as mementos of the trip. This absolutely delighted our young children beyond belief and was such a kind gesture. The accommodations themselves are perfect. As most commenters have noted, the porch is everything. Almost every meal was spent outdoors on the porch f it didn't take place at the beach itself. Oh and the beach! Such wonderful and warm beaches perfect for the family are literally 5 minutes from the door step. The neighbourhood is quiet, calm and charming. Everything you need is a skip and hop away. We were looking for a quiet and easy week away for our young family and we got exactly what we came for. None of us wanted to leave. Thank you Keith and Lynn. We'll be back!!!

Hi Shannon,
We are so happy you enjoyed your stay with us! Come back anytime!
I had the good fortune to stay at Summer Ayer in October 2023. Everything about my stay was outstanding. Booking and making payment was straightforward. The host was excellent about communicating before and during the rental period; any emails I sent received a lightning-fast response. The house and property were perfect for my month-long stay. Lynn and Keith have thoughtfully curated an amazing beach house that looks and feels like Cape Cod inside and out. The immaculately clean house is comfortable and roomy and has been outfitted with everything a vacationer could need or want. Great thought and detail went into how the house was equipped; there are plenty of pillows, bedding, towels, etc.; the kitchen has been beautifully outfitted with cookware, dishes, glasses, utensils, etc. The house is decorated in a clean, casual, nautical style that constantly reminds you that the beach is just down the street. The covered outdoor patio is a great bonus space. The yard is beautifully landscaped and has a couple of sitting areas and even a hammock. The gas grill was nice to have. The outdoor shower provided a new experience. The house is situated in a cute, quiet neighborhood a couple of blocks south of Route 28. The mid-Cape location is convenient for excursions in every direction. Summer Ayer is a wonderful vacation house, and the Shaws are wonderful hosts. I hope to be able to come again in the near future!
Simply wonderful says it all. Great location close to beach, grocery stores and all types of eateries. House is charming, clean and well maintained. The neighborhood is quiet. We were able to relax and enjoy all the cape has to offer. Thank you!
This home has everything and more for the perfect cape trip. My family and I could ride our bikes to the Parker River Beach, just a ten minute trip (and that is with a five year old rider)! Keith and Lynn go above and beyond for their guests, and the house was cool and comfortable for our return from a hot day at the beach! We loved eating our meals outside and enjoying the beautiful yard and brand new grill. Can’t wait to go back!
This was a very clean and well decorated Cape Cod house. The accommodations work well for a couple with two children. The location is perfect for accessing the beaches and Hyannis with ferries to the islands. There are many mini golf options and restaurants as well as two full service grocery stores and drug stores very close by. The neighborhood is very quiet.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on Holly Lane. It was quiet, peaceful, clean as a whistle, and every amenity was provided for. It is located very conveniently to many restaurants, shoppes, and the beach!
Very grateful to the owners for their wonderful hospitality, and we hope to return next year. Judith and Bridget

We would love to have you back! Thanks for taking great care of our house,
Spent the month of April at 50 Holly Lane and it could not have been more perfect. (Well, maybe if it was 80 degrees and sunny, but I digress.) The cottage is impeccably decorated; the wifi is adequate for working remotely; the location offers access to the beach and to most anything else you need within walking distance; and the hosts, Keith and Lynn, could not have been more communicative or accommodating. We took advantage of some challenging hiking trails (definitely check out the Sand Dune Trail in Provincetown), several area golf courses, and great takeout (Gerardi's Cafe!). All in all, Summer Ayer was a perfect oasis for these crazy times.. Thanks, Keith and Lynn for sharing your gem of a home!
This cottage is absolutely perfect! Cute, well furnished and equipped, and exactly as advertised, it was a perfect place for us! The location was perfect - quiet yet very convenient. And Lynn and Keith were absolutely perfect hosts! Highly recommend!
Everything at the property was amazing. We knew before hand that it was off season, so surely expected and wanted the stay to be peaceful, and it was indeed. If the rain gods were more favorable, the stay could have been better.
50 Holly Lane is a wonderful cozy cottage just minutes from the beach and local shopping, restaurants, breweries and wineries. We had all the amenities we needed, the horseshoe pits were a lot of fun and the hammock was a great place to relax. Looking forward to going back in the future!
We love this place! It’s our second year in a row renting here and we plan to go back. The house is perfect for the two of us and is in a great location relative to everything we need. Keith is always readily available and has been prompt with answering any questions. I would highly recommend!
My wife and I enjoyed our stay at Keith’s and Lynn’s home. The house was very clean, and nicely appointed. The location is very convenient to many beaches, restaurants, and shops. Everything you need for cooking and outdoor activities is on site. The outdoor shower is fabulous. We have already reserved our stay for Labor Day week next year.
