Perfect in everyway!

This owner cares about her property & her guests! So many thoughtful amenities & refreshing not to have to worry about basics like paper towels, spices, bath products etc. This home has the perfect layout which provides plenty of bathroom but multiple levels for privacy. We had great home cooked meals & lots of time in the back porch & fire pit. Location close to both pool & beach makes taking advantage of all amenities of Beacheakk!

Wonderful!

We had a wonderful time staying at the Cape Codder. Could not recommend this house more. It was beautiful, spacious, and stocked with everything we need. The community has so much to offer and the beach is so easy to walk to! Would 100% stay again!

Charming Cottage

Six girlfriends & I spent the weekend at the lovely Cape Codder. We've stayed in may VRBO rentals and this home was better appointed than most. It had absolutely everything we needed. If it was warm enough to spend a lot of time on the beach, we would really have appreciated the chairs, umbrellas, beach towels & cooler as well as 2 wagons provided to transport the gear to the beach, which is an easy 2 block stroll through the charming Beachwalk community. We're already talking about returning in the spring. Thank you Raychel!

About the host

Hosted by Raychel Barfield

I'm originally from Cape Cod and moved to Boston the day I turned 18! Hence the names of my Beachwalk properties, The Cape Codder and The Bostonian. As mom, living downtown Chicago, I wanted to expose my daughter to a slower, simpler pace of life and Beachwalk has proven to be the perfect location. The beach is perfect and we love spending time in the off season as a family.

I fell in love with the different colored homes and options for fun. I work a lot and love both homes equally since they provide a sense of peace and nature.

Come visit, we would love to host you!

What makes this property unique

I bought the house after owning in Beachwalk for over 5 years. The homes location can't be beat, pond facing, close to beach and pool. incredible.... 3 floors of living space allows everyone to relax.
