Reviews
Robert M.
This home was beautiful and so well appointed. Everything was very well done. Best stocked kitchen I have seen in a rental. Lots of platters, wine glasses, great dishes etc. Furnishings and accessories looked like a photo shoot from Coastal Living. Backyard beautiful and peaceful. Ten min walk into Osterville village for coffee, shopping dining. Can walk to Dowses beach or 3 min ride. Great outdoor grill area. Great for family. Lover level with TV and pool table great for teenagers or young adults. great family room area in Kitchen, plus a separate LR and DR, and sunroom. Lots of places to gather or to get your quiet time. Street is quiet and great if you have kids. Have rented places all over country and several times in Osterville area and this is one of the best I have been too. We had seven adults and it was great for all. Bathrooms and kitchens like brand new and well done. Agent was very helpful answering questions and accommodating late arrival.
