Lovely historic farm house in Brewster!

We had a great stay at Christy's place. The house is fascinating and quite spacious and comfortable. It is also well located for getting to Point of Rocks Beach and quick drives to other beaches east and west. Christy is also a wonderful host and quickly provided us with any information and supplies we needed.

Memorable stay

We had a great stay at this lovely house over Labor Day weekend. The communication with Christy was excellent. The house has everything you need for a summer stay on the Cape. The kids loved the outdoor games and cornhole in the yard. The location was very good. Overall, a great place to enjoy a Cape vacation.!

Family vacaton

To say my family was pleased with our stay was an understatement. All communications were wonderful. All questions were answered in a very timely manner. The home was clean and full of absolutely anything anyone of us needed, including the baby! Location was such a plus. We had a family wedding in Brewster and it was 15 minutes to the venue. All beaches were really close by too! We can't say enough about what amazing family memories we created there! The Johnson's hospitality was over the top!

Brewster getaway

My daughter is a history buff and so was very excited about this particular vacation. The house was lovely and The kitchen well stocked with everything we needed To prepare meals. The location was ideal for us as we love to bike and explore. We were not so far from beaches and p-town all of which we enjoyed. My grands loved Paine’s Creek, a quick bike ride down the hill. All in all another fabulous family memory created. A glimmer of hope in 2020... Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us🙏🏼
