KEY Curation Notes

The resort-style saltwater pool is open Memorial Day through Columbus Day, anchoring 1.12 acres of landscaped grounds. A fire pit lounge and cornhole setup sit adjacent; the heated pool operates seasonally with dedicated outdoor shower access for post-beach rinses.

A first-floor primary suite separates adult retreat space from the main gatherings. King bed, spa-inspired ensuite with dual vanities and double shower, plus dedicated laundry and pantry areas, make this bedroom a true sanctuary for the booking party.

The finished lower level transforms rainy days and after-dark hours into entertainment zones. Air hockey, full TV viewing area, workout room, office space, and a full bath mean kids and adults naturally disperse to their own activities without feeling cramped together.

A wrap-around farmer's porch features covered outdoor living with a TV, ideal for gathering before or after the beach. The open-concept kitchen flows into generous dining and family-room spaces, all anchored by a gas fireplace for cooler evenings.

A coveted Barnstable Beach Pass provides beach access within minutes; Centerville's pristine sandy beaches and the village's dining and shopping are a short drive away. Thoughtful touches throughout—curated coffee bar, popcorn machine for movie nights, linens included and beds made on arrival—elevate the stay beyond standard vacation rental.
