Now booking Summer 2026! Walk to Great Pond, Playground, Central AC.
Welcome to the quintessential Cape Cod town of Falmouth in the desirable Great Harbors neighborhood! We are excited to share with you our dream beach cottage. Having rented on the Cape for over 30 years, we consider ourselves the “professional renters” and know first hand what helps to make the perfect worry-free vacation!
The Space Our home was completely renovated inside and out in 2020. Literally everything is BRAND NEW! From the fully stocked kitchen to the cozy and comfortable beds. As you enter the front door you are welcomed into a large, open great room with cathedral ceilings, plenty of lighting including recessed and coastal fixtures, brand new bright white kitchen with high end finishes and appliances. The quartz island that seats four has plenty of room for games, puzzles and happy hour cocktails! For a sit down meal our dining area has seating for six with an extendable table for guests. An oversized sectional provides comfortable seating for everyone along with a 65” wall mounted Smart TV with cable. Hardwood floors throughout, central AC controlled with a Nest thermostat. Off the main living area is a full bathroom with a tiled shower and upgraded finishes. Hand soap and towels are included of course! Down the hall are two queen bedrooms, each decorated and furnished in a casual coastal theme. A spacious closet and dresser in each so you can unpack and feel right at home. Nightstands on BOTH sides of the beds!! The master bedroom completes your single level living with a king sized bed, another spacious closet, dresser, and a full en-suite bathroom with high end fixtures. All our bedrooms include brand new mattresses, freshly laundered linens and beds made upon your arrival.
The house is great but you may enjoy relaxing in our private, peaceful backyard even more! The spacious patio has a wicker dining set for six, an offset umbrella, propane grill, and Adirondack chairs around a wood fire-pit. Tiki torches and patio lights complete the evening ambiance! Plenty of lawn space for games, they are included too and will be stored in the garage. Who doesn’t love an outdoor shower after a long day at the beach? Our brand new oversized shower with separate changing area will be perfect!
The Extras Our cottage is stocked with all the comforts of home and absolutely everything to help you enjoy your best Cape Cod vacation ever! Just some of the extras include beach chairs, umbrella and beach towels; plenty of lawn games, board games and puzzles; hand soap for the bathrooms and kitchen; hair dryers; iron and ironing board; all towels and bedding freshly laundered. We also include enough basic supplies to get you through a day or two without having to go to the store: k-cups, paper towels, toilet paper, dish, dishwasher, hand and laundry soap. The Green Harbors Resident Association allows renters to purchase a weekly pool membership which includes unlimited access to the in-ground heated water view pool, children’s pool, tennis courts, pickle ball courts, recreational club, beach house and all association activities for that week. It was $350 for a week (Summer 2024 season) and includes passes for 6 people. A child 3 and under does not require a pass. This can be purchased ahead of time through the association or when you arrive.
The Location Great Harbors is one of the most desirable waterfront neighborhoods in Falmouth. We fell in love with the area immediately! We are a short walk away from a small private association beach on Great Pond. Great for little ones to play, launching your kayak/paddleboard or watching the sunset with a cocktail. The association also includes a playground, beach volleyball court and dock space for drop-off and pick-ups. All within a short walk. There are several public boat launches nearby as well.
If you need to venture outside our community, you will find a sidewalk along Acapesket and Menauhant Roads to bring you right to the ocean! Just a little over a mile. Both Menauhant Beach and Bristol Beach are a short bike ride away.
Within 2 miles you will find Smitty’s Homemade Ice Cream, Cape Cod Winery and Bad Martha’s Brewery. Something for everyone! Less than 10 minute drive to downtown Falmouth. Honestly, too many great things in Falmouth to mention but know that you are close to all of them!

It was so clean and really just a lovely home on a quiet, low-traffic street and neighborhood. Super location just a five minute drive to the beach. We had a great stay!
This house was absolutely wonderful - comfortable, clean and well stocked. Back yard was great - fire pit, games, hammock, grill. We will definitely stay here again if we get back.
We really enjoyed our stay here! They had everything we could have possibly needed. We were lucky enough have some family come enjoy an evening with us there too. Enjoyed being able to grill, play yard game and do smores. Made for a great relaxing evening. Thank you so much!
This is our second year in a row spending the week here! The house is in impeccable condition, is well appointed and in an awesome neighborhood and location in Falmouth. We plan to stay again next year and would recommend this house for anyone coming to the area!
We had an amazing stay, it was a perfect home away from home! It was beautifully decorated, very clean and well kept. I highly recommend this property!
We had a wonderful week exploring Falmouth. Kathleen’s home is beautiful and a perfect location near to everything!! We would love to come and stay again!
The place was the cleanest place we have ever rented. The beds were exceptionally comfortable and our marathon runner got a perfect big night of sleep before the race.
Thank you for an amazing stay at your house! It was a great house with a fantastic back yard. The attention to detail, cleanliness of the house, and the communication was top notch.

Thank you!! So happy you enjoyed your stay and our home. We appreciate your kind words!
The house was pristine, comfortable and so well-equipped! We enjoyed evenings eating on the patio and hanging at the firepit as much as our days at the nearby beaches and other Falmouth activities. We look forward to returning.
Very comfortable, attractive house in a quiet location. Nice neighborhood for morning walks. Great backyard. Easily accessible to both Falmouth & Mashpee. Good for a family visit.

Thanks so much for choosing our home. We are happy you enjoyed your stay and look forward to your next visit!
Beautiful and spacious inside. Great for everybody close to everything. Close to the beach close to Main Street shopping you can even take a bike ride. Then at night you can relax at the fire pit roasting marshmallows.

We had a great time at Kathleen’s home; she was a wonderful host and was friendly, accommodating, and quick to answer any questions we had. The house was very nice, clean, and worked great for our family. The location was great; we were able to quickly get into town or the beach but also enjoyed walks around the neighborhood. We hope to come back!

We love the whole property. They had a wonderful backyard and had a lot of variety of games which was unexpected as well as a great outdoor seating. Spent a lot of time outdoors. The house was also newly updated and beautiful. We really enjoyed our stay would definitely go back.
This is the nicest VRBO property we have ever stated in! Clean, well appointed, so cute and the location is great! If you ever want to sell, let me know!

About the host
Hosted by Kathleen Ford
Growing up in Boston, now living in NH. Cape Cod has always had a special place in my heart. As a child I would come for a week or two each summer with family. When I had children of my own we did the same. We were never lucky enough to own our own property but rented all over. Some of our favorite towns were Chatham, Harwich, Dennis and Falmouth.
Why they chose this property
When the opportunity came for us to purchase a home in Cape Cod our first choice was Falmouth. We love that Falmouth has the summer/vacation/beach vibe of your typical Cape towns but also has an amazing downtown area with shops and restaurants. You can get something at Walmart or shop at Home Goods without having to drive to Hyannis or off-Cape. Literally so much available so close by while still feeling like you are away from it all!
What makes this property unique
We fell in love with our home immediately. It was perfectly remodeled with everything new. We didn't have to do a thing! The neighborhood is exactly what we wanted - lots of side streets for walking or biking, walk to the shores of Great Pond to launch a Paddleboard or watch the sunset and even a swimming pool overlooking the water. Close proximity to multiple beaches was a must. Just 1.5 miles to Menauhant Beach. Also a 10 minute ride to downtown, not to mention all the other great things to see/do in Falmouth!
