In Barnstable’s charming Cummaquid area, this bright and sophisticated retreat offers single-level living with three bedrooms and three full bathrooms for up to eight travelers. The open interior centers around an impressive chef’s kitchen with granite surfaces, professional-grade appliances, and a spacious island, flowing naturally into generous dining and living areas. Central air conditioning, a lower-level TV lounge, and a dedicated workspace add comfort and flexibility for relaxing Cape Cod stays. Outside, a private fenced yard transforms into a resort-inspired escape with a heated saltwater pool and an expansive 2,500-square-foot patio. Shaded outdoor dining, a gas grill, ambient evening lighting, and a large stone fire pit create an inviting setting from sunny afternoons through starlit evenings. Milway Beach is about an eight-minute drive away, while Barnstable Village offers nearby dining, shopping, whale-watching excursions, and fishing charters for an effortless mix of relaxation and coastal adventure.

KEY Curation Notes

Beach is a short drive, not a walk. Milway Beach on Barnstable Harbor is about eight minutes by car — scenic and low-key, but this is not a walk-to-the-water property.
The pool is the centerpiece. A private, heated saltwater pool (16' x 32', 3.5' uniform depth) sits on an immense 2,500 sq ft fenced patio with a gas grill, stone firepit, and outdoor dining for eight. The shallow depth is ideal for kids; lap swimmers should note the 3.5' ceiling throughout.
The kitchen is genuinely equipped. Six-burner professional gas range, farmhouse sink, large center island, Italian-clad cookware, a lobster pot, Nespresso and Cuisinart coffee. The indoor dining table seats 10 and flows directly into the living space and pool access.
All bedrooms are on a single level. No stairs to any sleeping area. Primary suite has a king bed and ensuite bath with step-in shower and double vanity. Second bedroom has a king and a dedicated desk workspace. Third bedroom has bunk beds sleeping four.
Lower level adds flex space. A separate TV room with a 64" screen is set up for kids; the garage holds a second fridge and ping-pong table. Beach chairs are provided.
Linens and beach towels are included. A beach pass is also provided. Starter supplies are not detailed — KEY.co grocery delivery can be arranged before arrival so the kitchen is stocked on day one.

Location

Inside the destination

Neighborhood: Cummaquid Heights - Only an eight-minute drive from Barnstable's  Milway Beach on beautiful Barnstable Harbor. You’ll also want to check out nearby Barnstable Village for the shops and activities. Grab a Grilled Veggie and Cheese Panini at the Barnstable Market. Become addicted to the Nirvana Coffee Company. Go on a whale watch cruise or charter a fishing boat and see if you can catch dinner.

Parking information

During peak hours at town beaches, parking stickers are required. Of course, most of our properties are directly on or within easy walking distance of private, neighborhood association beaches, so no pass is required. For those properties that aren’t right on or within walking distance, a pass is necessary. You can stop by the town offices to pick up a weekly pass or pay per visit. Beach passes are issued by vehicle and are not transferable.

We had a wonderful stay at this property. It was everything and more than expected. Lots of room, well-staged and a beautiful backyard/pool! We had room to spread out. We had everything that we needed. The property management was responsive and very professional. This was our best rental to date!!! Thanks for making our vacation a memorable one!
