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 so are not transferable.

Reviews
Ted
Not sure where to start as the stay here was so incredible. This place was colorfully landscaped with hydrangeas, butterfly bushes, grasses, day Lilys, honeysuckle and trees. The big hit at this beautiful oasis was the generous size heated swimming pool, The pool had lights in the water and on the surrounding, fence. All the landscaping has subtle lights on at night which come on with the pool lights. It was stunning. This place has ample comfortable lounge chairs, tables, umbrellas for shade and beach chairs. Everything is 2-10 minute walk be it the beach, ice cream (sundae school is basically next door) restaurants or shops The house was spotless. All the bed linen, pillows are provided as well as bath and pool towels - all was excellent quality. So no loading up the cars with all the above. Just arrive and be ready to enjoy. This was probably the finest of many rentals we have done on the Cape over the years. We had an absolutely amazing time. It’s not just a house.
