About the host

Hosted by Katie Carlson

Host profile image
My name is Katie and I manage this property with my brother. I live 2 hours off Cape in Northborough, MA with my husband and 7-year old son. My brother, Matthew, lives locally.

Why they chose this property

This house has been in our family for over 40 years, since I was a little girl. My parents owned it jointly with my cousins family up until 2008 when my parents bought it outright and lived out their retirement. It is currently in a trust jointly owned by my brother, Matthew and I. We grew up summering there and have many, many great memories in this house. We are thrilled to be able to share it with others.

What makes this property unique

This house is uniquely suited to 2 families who would like to share a vacation. With a downstairs master king and upstairs queen and the large "kids" room upstairs. The street is a quiet dead end that doesn't get a lot of traffic. The front yard is large and flat and great for family games. The garage has been screened in and converted to a "porch" which provides a great, bug free, place to hang out on warm summer evenings.
