Dead rats not welcoming for vacation
Very disappointing, we could have stayed in Falmouth for less and way nicer accommodations with kitchenette. I’m fighting for partial refund as completely unkept outdoors, horrible smell from 2 dead rats outside back door, and left in the basement. Cobwebs everywhere, very disappointing part of our trip.

Great location!
Nice 1-bedroom with easily accessible loft within walking distance of Woods Hole village. Very clean with a nice kitchen and bath. Needs some attention to the yard and to the sump pump. I was also disappointed that the window air conditioners had not been installed yet.

Pictures are deceiving
The house is cutely decorated, but the house has some issues. The renovations are not great, the kitchen and bathroom are nice, but the rest of the house needs some improvements, the dividing walls are plywood with cracks( can see light through the other room) no closet door, house has a “lean” to it, washer/dryer in scary dingy basement, and our biggest issue was it advertised it has AC, which in June you need, the window units were on the floor not hooked up and the house is very stuffy. The staircase is unsafe for smaller kids with wide openings on the railing. When we had no AC the rest of the items were hard to overlook. The plus was the interior was clean and it is convenient to ferry and Woods Hole. The host offered to have someone come install the ACs but we were so turned off on the situation and condition of the overall house we stayed somewhere else. And No, as of checkout day, we had not been offered any kind of refund.

Very nice neighborhood, easy walking access to biking trail, Woods Hole and Falmouth Beach. The house is generally cute, the new bathroom and kitchen are very nice, but the rest of the furnishings are somewhat lackluster. Walls need painting, the front yard looks like a construction zone. Had a fine stay but once all the fees and taxes are included, I fount it a little pricey for what it is

A charming cottage for a happy holiday!
The cottage was everything we hoped for - charming, comfortable, carefully and casually designed! The location is perfect for walking into the village or walks along the beaches. Even in Woods Hole is a wonderful place to be!

Far from "Perfect Cape Cottage" as advertised
Cottage in good location with new appliances but… Random items cluttered our closet. Bedroom curtains didn’t open fully, making the room dark. Bathroom wonderful but shower set to tepid. Kitchen fine, but no kettle and so little cutlery we had to buy more, since reimbursed. Not every window had a screen; when we opened one such, the window ledge was alive with ants. We shut it promptly and were glad we’d packed Off! Storm door unscreened; agent obligingly provided a new one. They also fixed a pumping defect in the cellar & told us what to do if recurred (it did). Dodgy electrics? When sitting on the 1 hard sofa with back door open we were on view of our very close neighbours; a fence would help. Only outdoor furniture was abandoned broken chairs. Hilly front lawn with bare patches shelved so abruptly near road we had to traverse to avoid falling; the stone steps were wholly inadequate & path had no lighting. Hazardous on 2 levels. How can it meet safety standards? Even entering was iffy. We were locked out one day when electronic combi-lock failed. Though assured there was a back-up key, we were never told where despite asking. Luckily, earlier issues meant we had area manager’s cell and he picked up! ‘Perfect Cape Cottage’ as per website? No. Apart from kitchen and bathroom it felt unconsidered & unloved. Good value? No again. We’ve asked for a part refund. R Eastman, Aug ’23

Great spot near Woods Hole !
Lovely stay. Clean, accurate listing, and convenient (ten minute walk to Woods Hole and easy access to Falmouth bike path, Surf Drive, and ocean). Pretty basic and simple, but it served its purpose for our family of 3!

Do the laundry....? How about no.
Is the place adorable and in a convenient location? Yes. Are the rules and check-in/out times absolutely ridiculous? YES. We have elderly family living on the cape and would have loved to re-book here but we won't because check-in is at 4pm and check-out is at 10? We asked to check out at 11 instead and were denied our request, only to arrive and see in the book that check-out used to be 11, but they had scribbled it out and wrote in 10. They had also written that it would be nice if we could throw a load of laundry in before leaving. If I'm expected to check out at 10, and I'm paying twice the price of the place in fees? Laundry isn't happening and it was a huge turn-off to be expected to do so. We loved the place itself, but the rules and expectations of us as guests will keep us from coming back again. It's not worth the stress.

Cute place, needs maintenance
We loved our stay in Woodshole. Always more to explore and do. This cottage was a great jumping off point. There was a lovely, well-stocked kitchen. Other rooms needed some refresh and maintenance work. Overall, I would stay here again.

Quick weekend getaway
The cottage was exactly what we needed for a quick little weekend getaway! The first floor bedroom gave my partner and I a separate little space from the kiddos using the loft bedroom. Great layout! The turn table didn't work which would have been fun given the record assortment available, but otherwise all good!

Nice but...
Entered the property and was very humid. May have been nice if AC was on upon entering to dry out the property so it did not smell of mildew upon entering. Recyclable bin was filled with garbage upon entering. There was no pods or laundry detergent to wash towels as was requested so used own supply. Check in and check out process was really easy

Needs a Deep Cleaning
Though the layout of the property and the location are both spectacular, the property was not clean to the point where my friend and I were uncomfortable sitting on the furniture in the living room. There were disgusting white stains all over the couch and chair that were so clearly not cleaned that we could not sit on the couch. It was repulsive. The pillows on the couch and chair were also dirty and covered in stains. One positive was they provided clean towels and linens, but after seeing the couch we were a bit fearful of using the linens. The location truly is incredible - quick walk to woods hole center and a quick walk to the beach - but I wouldn't return due to the state of the interior especially during this time.
