★The Islander | Steps From Water, Fire Pit, AC★

A pristine island getaway. This tastefully decorated cozy cottage is nestled in the Wild Life Sanctuary of Monomoscoy Island. The home is steps from the water, and a small private beach for you to enjoy. The location is great for a family vacation, couples getaway or romantic retreat. You will be minutes from South Cape Beach, New Seabury and the Mashpee Commons. Relax on the large front porch that offers a fire pit and views of the water on either side. Stay with us on your next vacation!

~The Space~
Our year round cottage has all the amenities for a comfortable stay. It is set on a quiet private road. The large front deck offers room for everyone, and fantastic views of the water! On the front deck you will find seating for your whole group with a fire pit to keep you warm at night. About 500 feet from the front of the house, at the end of the street, you will find a small private beach for you to use. Bring a beach chair for a day in the sun, or enjoy an amazing sunset over Waquiot Bay at night. In the partially fenced in back yard, you will find a BBQ grill and table to enjoy a meal outside on those warm summer days.

This newly furnished cottage has a comfortable open floor plan featuring high vaulted ceilings. The full kitchen includes all the utensils and appliances for cooking a delicious meal. The living room includes a large sectional couch for watching TV or conversing with the family. The 55 inch smart HD TV has Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon built in for your convenience.

The master bedroom has a comfortable queen size bed and a 32 inch flat screen TV. Also, enjoy views and access to the back yard through the large slider. The second bedroom also includes a queen size bed with large closet for storage. The third bedroom is equipped with two twin beds and a closet as well. The bathroom has a full shower, including a tub, and a washer and dryer for your use.

~Guest Access~
The entire home plus all amenities are included in this rental. Please, make yourself at home.

~Guest Interaction~
I am here for you during your stay, our level of interaction is up to you. I’m only a phone call or message away. You will be able to self check-in upon arrival. I have lived on Cape Cod for 24 years and would be happy to give suggestions on things to do and see! There will be a welcome binder provided when you arrive that will include my recommendations on where to eat, activities, and other information about the area.

~The Neighborhood~
The cottage is located on the wildlife sanctuary that is Monomoscoy Island. Once across the causeway the cottage is located on a small private street. At the end of the street you will find a small picturesque beach. The island is 1 and1/2 miles long, making it great for a walk or a bike ride where you can take in the views of wildlife and beautiful homes. South Cape Beach(3.5 miles), Mashpee Commons(2.5 miles), New Seabury(2 miles), and Popponessett Market Place are just a few places that are a short drive from the home. Falmouth center(15 minutes) and ferries to Martha’s Vineyard are also located close by.

~Getting Around~
The cottage includes parking for 2 cars as you will need to drive most places. Uber and Lyft are also good inexpensive options. There are a few taxi companies that service the area as well. I will include references in the welcome binder.

Perfect!
I was travelling with my 3 sisters from Canada heading towards Martha's Vineyard for a sister's reunion. We all appreciated the cleanliness and the attention to detail. The space was well appointed. The fridge ice maker did not work well so having some ice cube trays would have been helpful. I highly recommend The Islander.

Time with our Grandkids
The property was very nice, clean, comfortable and well equipped. The host and cohost were both great, we arrived a little early and they let us check in instead of making us wait. The only disappointment was the private beach at the end of the road. There were badly broken stairs that were dangerous to use and no ‘beach’ to speak of… you couldn’t put down a blanket or a chair for example. We had a different expectation based on the description of the property.

Little slice of Heaven
We were welcomed into this beautiful home and discovered it to be just as pictured. Home smelled and looked cleaned, beds were comfy. Plenty of bath and beach towels, detergent for a quick load of laundry, toiletries, the coffee also was a nice to have for our short stay. Truly all the essentials that we didnt have to worry about to make for an easy and comfortable family vacation. The home is surrounded by beautiful water ways just steps from the home. Enough to enjoy a beautiful walk, dipping our feet in and our boys to throw out a line and do a little fishing. The home had all the kitchen essentials to cook family meals, a nice large sectional for a family movie night for us to unwind from a day exploring the Cape. Grocery stores, shopping and dining near by! We could not have asked for a better landing pad while on the Cape! Thank you Matt for your hospitality and letting us call this home for a few days!

Relaxing get-a-way
The house was lovely, neat and well equipped. My two cousins and I had a relaxing time. We especially enjoyed sitting on the front porch in front of the gas fire pit in the evening. Never turned on the TV once. Enjoyed some sightseeing, reading, shopping and each others company.

A relaxing getaway
This is a perfect spot for a late summer getaway. The immediate area is quiet but not far from beaches and shopping. The property and very clean and well-maintained, and contained everything we needed. The fire pit on the front porch was a very welcome plus in the evenings. Our questions were answered quickly by the owner. We would definitely consider returning.

Perfect for a family getaway
My husband and I stayed for two nights with our two young boys. The house was perfect for us. It felt private and we loved the front porch, and the fact that we could see the water, but could easily get to restaurants, shopping, and attractions. We stayed in April so the area was quiet, but we were able to bike, go for walks, and visited some local attractions. It was. a perfect quick getaway for us!
