Vacation rentals with a kayak in Cape Cod Bay

The Swiss House is an ideal retreat for families seeking a harmonious blend of comfort and connection. The expansive open-concept living area downstairs fostered a sense of togetherness, while the well-appointed kitchen made preparing family meals a breeze. Nestled away from the hustle, yet conveniently close to amenities, the house offers a perfect balance of privacy and accessibility. A quick drive to Mayflower Beach added to the allure, making our stay nothing short of delightful.

Wow! Wow! Wow! Congratulations on the beautiful renovation. This was our second stay at this gorgeous home and, while we knew that they were doing some additional work in the off-season, we were not prepared for all of the incredible improvements that were made. This place leaves nothing to be desired. Beds are comfy with lovely linens, lots of room for everyone to spread out (important to us with both teenagers and littles) and lots of toys to use on the pond with a great eye for safety. We have family at Jenkins Pond and make this trip every year. As long as this house is available, we will look no further for a place to stay. Dar is a gracious host, extremely responsive, helpful and accommodating. He clearly put a lot of love and thought into this home and we were very grateful to be guests. It was the best home base for a fun week with family and we once again head home with wonderful memories.

What a cool spot! Stayed a couple nights with friends for a "Book Retreat" and had the best time reading in the Hammock, chatting by the fire pit, and cooking together in the kitchen.

This was the perfect place for three friends who write and workshop together online to gather in person. The main room of the house is filled with light and what I didn't realize from the listing is the beautiful view from the living/dining room down to the river. The kitchen is well supplied and every room was very clean and uncluttered. The three bedrooms on the first floor are all very nice, with good beds and pillows (one is slightly larger with a king-sized bed), so we were able to decide on our rooms painlessly and none of us had to settle for an inferior room. The large dining table was perfect for spreading out our work as well as for dining, and one of us enjoyed having the furnished basement as her private work space. When we had a problem with hearing a beeping noise, which we initially thought might be a smoke detector battery that needed replacing, Bob was very responsive and helpful in figuring out the cause of the beeping from a motion detector. We plan to come again.

This is an absolutely beautiful rental and location. Cleanest, most pristine location we have been to. Appliances and bathrooms are glimmering. Host is immediately responsive and kind. 10 out of 10 in all respects.

This home is located in a beautiful area. We loved watching the swans and geese in the water. The home is very comfortable. It was perfect place for our family to gather to celebrate my 75th birthday. I highly recommend it.

Perfect stay - just be sure to bring or order sheets and towels!

We stayed at Lisa’s place for three nights and it was a 10/10 experience. Lisa was a fantastic host and was very helpful with island recommendations prior to our trip. The property itself is stunning and although we wanted to explore the island, the property also provided a beautiful landscape to just relax. Even given its private, peaceful location, it was still so convenient to town. The house is an adorable converted barn that has incredible, rustic charm and the decor was so beautifully thought out. Before we even left we were talking about booking again in the future. We definitely recommend booking here!

Excellent stay. Plenty of room for the 5 of us. We rested well and were able to relax. We appreciated having laundry on site since we were on a 10-day trip. The beds were comfortable and we slept well. But that is a minor detail when you can watch the sunset over the peaceful water. Lisa communicated well and responded quickly. The house is easy to get to and stores are easy to travel to. Excellent location.

As soon as I walked into Carol’s place, I felt right at home. In fact, I was sad I couldn’t stay longer. Dennis is a great centrally located area on the Cape (next to many great restaurants and a supermarket). The cottage itself is in a quiet neighborhood right in front of Flax Pond (great for kayaking). It was well stocked with amenities and things to do I could just spend all day there. Carol was friendly and responsive. I would book at the Compass Rose Cottage again!

It was a very wonderful place to stay; a very nice cozy place for a few people to enjoy. Kayaking out back was great for anyone who wanted a nice chill day.

A Perfect Stay – Cozy, Clean, and Wonderfully Hosted We had an absolutely delightful stay. The space was clean and equipped with all the amenities needed for a comfortable visit. The location was ideal—peaceful and serene yet conveniently close to local attractions and dining options. What truly set this experience apart was the host’s exceptional hospitality; they were incredibly responsive, accommodating, and made us feel right at home. Look forward to returning!

Great Dennisport cottage! Walk to Chapins, walk to Glendon Road Beach. Great amenities and well supplied. Perfect place for a weekend getaway.

My partner and I had a lovely weekend getaway at Felicia's sweet place. We had everything we needed and we'd definitely visit again. Everything was as described and the location was perfect. Thank you Felicia for everything you do to make your guests feel welcomed.

Cute little cottage, looks just like the photos. Walking distance to beach and walking trails!

The Lemon Drop was perfect! Just like the pictures with a clean beachy inside and amazing outdoor space. We had a wonderful time with all the amenities easily available. Great communication throughout our stay

The cozy venue is beautifully located, offering all the comforts of a small Cape Cod cottage on the salt marsh. The hosts were incredibly welcoming, ensuring that everything was available for a comfortable stay and making themselves accessible at any time. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a super unique, peaceful retreat that has convenient access to endless activities. The property is situated in a unique, serene location with easy walking access to local parks and a variety of quality restaurants. The water is perfect for paddling to explore the large area of connected coves. It’s a short distance to the Cape Cod Canal Railroad Bridge and the canal trail. There's little need to leave the property but there is much close by to explore. I'm looking forward to returning to experience everything again, and maybe, experience and discover even more next time.

Thank you to our wonderful hosts at the Onset Compound for an incredible stay! The home is located in a picture perfect waterfront setting with all of the amenities a beach house offers. The hosts recommended some great restaurants and things to do that kept us busy all weekend. The home is sparkling clean and we felt right at home!

The Birdhouse was a delight. I had a wonderful night’s sleep. Martha is a gracious and helpful host.
