Summary: Can't say how much we enjoyed our stay. The house is beautiful,clean and filled with incredible antiques.. Dennis couldn't have been more helpful-with suggestions of places to go and see. It really felt like a home away from home. Can't wait to go back.

Summary: The house was lovely for a relaxing week with extended family. We spend hours by the pool and evenings in the covered patio area. The grounds are terrific for walking, playing lawn games, and bird watching.

Summary: The house was accurately described, a beautiful restored house with many interesting antiques. We loved the pool area and the proximity to shopping. Saw snakes and eagles and walked to cute shops and restaurants. A wonderful vacation was had by all 10 of us!

Summary: I can't say enough wonderful things about our stay! From the moment we booked, Dennis (property manager) was attentive, professional, and easy to communicate with. The home was even more beautiful in person. It was a treat to stay in such a charming and historical home. The layout was perfect for our family of 12 (grandparents, parents, and children). Although we were a large group there were plenty of places to spread out and enjoy some solitude. We enjoyed sharing family meals in the kitchen, dining room, or patio. The kids spent a ton of time in the pool while the adults relaxed. The location was ideal for exploring the Cape. It was a memorable way to celebrate my parents' 50th wedding anniversary. We hope to return!

Summary: This charming house with beautiful grounds and a pool was perfection to celebrate my wife’s 60th birthday. We were able to receive family at the beginning of the week and friends at the end celebrating at the nearby beaches and sharing dinners by the pool. Dennis really cares about the property and managed our communication well. We would love to visit/rent this beautiful place again in the future.

Summary: This property is as beautiful as it looks online. If anything, with its lush grounds and gardens, it surpasses the description. The location was ideal for enjoying a different beach each day and close proximity to shopping, restaurants and exploring the Cape. I could go on and on about the pluses of this well-stocked, welcoming home but other reviewers have amply covered them. Instead, I'll share thoughts that may be of interest to families with children under 5. We vacation with kids 1-, 2- and 5-years old. We were thrilled to walk into the entry room and discover a fantastic multi-storied, fully furnished dollhouse full of intricate details. However, any dollhouse with truly tiny pots, pans and other features may pose a choking hazard for children under 3 -- even if they always have adult eyes on them. Parents know that supervised toddlers can still put something in their mouths faster than you can say "sleight of hand." If we could have moved the dollhouse into an area that we could restrict to the 5-year-old and adults, we would have. But, it was too large to move so we had to be super cautious. Finally, the swimming pool. The back door of the entry room leads to the backyard, patio and pool. The door was easy for our 5-year-old to open and there was no alarm. Fortunately, our 5-year-old is a proficient swimmer and she understood why she should not go outside without an adult. But, be aware that access to a pool is a consideration to plan for.

Summary: We had a wonderful stay at the William Marston home. It was a beautiful home and we all appreciated the interior decorating and antiques. The house is spacious for 12 of us (some children) and we were all able to eat meals together at the kitchen table! The master bedroom was perfect for a baby and toddler to be in the room with parents as there was plenty of space! We appreciated the attention to detail throughout the house. All of the tissue boxes had a bow or flower made out of tissue and the bathrooms were stocked with shampoos, soaps, and conditioners. No need to bring your own bath towels as they had many on hand. We loved the large pool with floats, which got a lot of use! Though the pool was not heated, it was certainly refreshing! The back porch and patio were lovely where we spent most days and nights. Within walking distance is the Fig Tree Cafe, which we all agreed was delicious for breakfast. Also the pond is a short walk where you can view swans! There are many beaches to go to within a 10-20 minute drive. The house offered 4 beach chairs, which was useful with our large group. It's a short ride to other small towns like Hyannis, Osterville, and Chatham. We recommend all and would love to have visited more because each town was cuter than the next. When we come back to Cape Cod, we would love to stay here again as it fits all of our families' needs. We'd recommend 100%! The Hart/Starkey Families

Close to lots of beaches and other things to do. the pool was a life saver in the hot weather and the yard is large for games.
