As seen on the pages of This Old House Magazine, The Cape Cod Times, and featured in a calendar of relaxing porches of Cape Cod, our cottage by the sea is the perfect place to spend your vacation. Surrounded by all of the beauty and charm of Cape Cod, and tucked into a quiet little neighborhood, there is so much to see and do that you could park your car and never use it again. Every detail has been thought of, with many personal touches that will make you feel at home from the minute you arrive, and there is always a special welcome waiting just for you.. The cottage has all the charm of a boutique inn with the privacy of your own home. We live local and are always happy to help you plan your visit with an insider's view to all of the best places to see and things to do while you are here.
ABOUT THE COTTAGE
Beautifully decorated, super clean, comfortable 2 bedroom, 1 full bath home with central air conditioning, wifi, smart tv, linens, and washer/dryer all on one floor. Enjoy family meals at home in our custom designed kitchen, or have a snack at the kitchen island. Relaxing porch out front, and deck with dining table and grill surrounded by beautiful gardens in the private back yard. Refreshing outdoor shower leaves the sand outside after a day a the beach..
ABOUT THE LOCATION
Barnstable Village has something for everyone, and you can walk to everything from our cottage! Millway Beach is just down the road, with a beautiful view of Sandy Neck Lighthouse. The beach is sandy, and the water gentle. Walk to Millway Marina for charter fishing, restaurants and ice cream, public boat launch too. Put your kayak in the saltwater marsh and head over to Sandy Neck. Have your lobster and ''chowdah'' cooked to go at Osterville Fish Too just up the road. Better yet, have dinner or cocktails with a view of the harbor at the Mattakeese Wharf - no need to take the car! Stroll down the street to one of the most beautiful beaches on Cape Cod. Be sure to take in a sunset too - beach chairs and towels are here for you, just bring your own flip-flops. The house is just steps to a beautiful saltwater marsh, and the Mill Way Marina is just a block away - you can go on a charter boat or Whale Watch, eco tour, or just watch as the fishing boats unload their 'catch of the day'. A short walk past the marina is a playground for the little ones to enjoy, and then head to historic Main Street for unique shops, restaurants, antiques, museums and more. Haunted and history tours also available, and organic farm to pick up some local grown fruit, veggies and flowers. Located Mid-Cape, it is an easy five minute drive to Hyannis for nightlife, ferries to Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket
WHY KIDS LOVE IT
From a pirate’s treasure box to toy boats and mermaid toys to play with in the bath, the house is a delight for smaller guests as well as adults. Kids enjoy all of the little things just for them: games and night-time story books and a movie projector for movies under the stars after a day of exploring at the beach. Millway Beach is sandy with gentle water, perfect for little ones with a swimming area and lifeguard in season. Kids of all ages will enjoy exploring low tide along the tidal flats with shallow pools of water filled with sea-life to discover.

About the host
Hosted by Eva Carbonaro (Automated VRBO/Homeaway Message)

My husband Steve and I fell in love with the Cape many years ago. We found ourselves drawn back time after time, driving through the night with our two boys still in their pajamas in the back seat looking forward to the relaxing days by the beach we would spend together.
Fourteen years ago we decided to make Cape Cod our home. I am still discovering new and beautiful places, and smile when I drive along Route 6A past the rambling roses and hydrangeas bursting with blooms. I look forward to the changes that each new season brings. The long, lazy days of Summer... the color of the leaves in Fall and the crackling sound of the first fire in our fireplace. The beauty and tranquility of the first snowfall in winter, and waking up one morning after a long Spring rain and noticing that all is green again.
We found our little cottage by the sea and spent the winter of 2010 designing and building our vision of the perfect Cape Cod get-away. Having rented before, we wanted to create a place where you could relax, unwind and enjoy from the minute you arrived. I hope you too will have many happy memories of sun-filled days and starlit nights and find as many reasons to fall in love with Cape Cod as we did!
